Sports on field dilemmas: a practical session

In this 1 hour session participants will rotate through 3 different stations, each of which will involve a structured examination of the optimal approach to managing different types of acute sports injuries in a field of play setting. The presenters will outline a case study of an acute on-field injury and assist the participants to problem solve the best approach to its immediate and subsequent management while integrating consideration of current evidence informed guidelines as well as the legal, ethical and scope of practice issues and the sports specific rules that can complicate the role of the Sports Physiotherapist in a field of play setting when quick decision making is necessary.
