•Neurgenic–Generaldilation of blood vessels•Psychogenic–Fainting–Temporarydilation of blood vessels reducing blood flow to brain

SHOCK DEFINITION

•Cardiogenic–Inabilityof the heart to pump enough blood to the body

•Septic–severeinfection, typically bacterial•Anaphylactic–Severeallergic reaction•Metabolic–Severeillness such as diabetes left untreated–Extremeloss of body fluid

SHOCK TREATMENT

•Maintainbody temperature

•Elevatefeet and legs depending on cause of shock


•Treatinjury causing shock as needed

TREAT HYPOTHERMIA

mild hypothermia

•Remove wet or damp clothing


•Insulate pt in warm, dry clothing or blankets •Move to a warm environment


•Apply heat only to the trunk, axilla and groin when rewarming


•Provide warm fluids and food containing carbohydrates


•Avoid friction massage to tissues




moderate/severe


•Startprimary survey to determine if CPR is necessary


•Removewet or damp clothing


•Rewarmas you would with mild hypothermia•Transportand transfer into MD care



ExertionalHyponatremia
•Increasingheadache•Significantmental compromise•Alteredconsciousness•Seizures•Lethargy•Swellingin the extremities•Ptmay have any hydration stateMEDICAL EMERGENCY

MILD DEHYDRATION

•LOSS OF LESS THAN 2% OF BODY WEIGHT

•Can impair cardiovascular and thermoregulatory response


•Reduce capacity for exercise


•Negative affect on performance

•Spondylosis
–Stress fracture at the pars interarticularis due to repetitive hyperextension of vertebrae. �
•Spondylolisthesis
–Separationof the stress fx andallowing the vertebrae to slip anteriorly. This puts the spinal cord at risk.

compression fracture is a MEDICAL EMERGENCY

ATHLETE LANDS ON THEIR BUTT HARD SURFAXE


UNCOMMON THOUGH

Prior to return to play after a cervical injury, the patient needs to exhibit which of the following? Select all that apply ??
Full strength Full ROM Be asymptomatic Have full confidence

sam splint

small enough to carry along with

Which type of padding is optimal to disperse forces?

hard/high density foam

sign or symptom of a cervical injury

helmet fitting

•Wet the players hair….why? •Simulate playing conditions

•The helmet should fit snuggly around all parts of the players head and no gaps should exist between the cheek pads and the head or face


•The helmet should cover the base of the skull and the pads at the back of the neck should be snug but not to the extent of discomfort


•It should not come down over the eyes but rather two finger widths above the players eyebrows


ear holes match


3 finger width from nose


helmet should not shift when manual pressure is applied

shoulder pad fitting

•The width of the shoulder is measured to determine the proper size of pad •


•The inside shoulder pad should cover the tip of the shoulder in a direct line with the lateral aspect of the shoulder •




•The epaulets and cups should cover the deltoid muscle and allow movements required by the athlete’s position •



•The neck opening must allow the athlete to raise the arm overhead but not allow the pad to slide back and forth •




•If a split clavicle shoulder pad is used,the channel for the top of the shoulder must in the proper position•




•Straps underneath the arm must hold thepads firmly in place, but not so they constrict the soft tissue. A collar anddrop-down pads may be added to provide more protection•




•After fitting, make sure the pads don’tshift when the athlete puts on the jersey.
