Sports Medicine Padlet by ZUZANNA BIZUB

Unit 1: Basic Anatomy

251634_2 — 2024-09-18 15:30:05 UTC

I can list the 6 characteristics of a synovial joint

251634_2 — 2024-09-18 15:41:43 UTC

1: bones that meet = articulates

2: cartilage on both bones

3: synovial membranes = joint membrane

4: fluid in joint space = synovial joint

5: ligaments support

6: synovial capsule

I can explain the differences of the 4 Anatomical Joints

251634_2 — 2024-09-18 15:47:30 UTC

1: The saddle joint is in-between the carpal bone and 1st metacarpal bone, while the plane joint is between the tarsals.

2: The pivot joint is between the C1 and C2 vertebrae while the hinge joint is in the elbow.

I can identify movements in the 3 planes of movement

251634_2 — 2024-09-18 15:51:44 UTC

1: Transverse divides body into upper and lower parts, they are perpendicular to the long axis of the body.

2: Frontal divides the body into equal/ unequal front and back parts (anterior/posterior).

3: Sagittal divides the body into left and right and parallel to median plane (medial/lateral)

I can identify all bones of the Appendicular Skeleton

251634_2 — 2024-09-20 02:37:00 UTC

upper limbs: clavicle, scapula, humerus, ulna, radius, carpals, metacarpals, phalanges

lower limbs: coxal bone, femur, patella, tibia, fibula, talus, tarsals, metatarsals, phalanges

After the first unit of sports medicine I learned many things about the bones in my body. It was very interesting to learn about all the different bones in your axial skeleton and the importance of our atomical joints. I never knew how important such bones are. I am very excited to continue learning in this class.

Unit 2: Emergency procedures

251634_2 — 2024-11-13 16:24:09 UTC

I can explain the various environmental injuries - (DOK 2)

251634_2 — 2024-11-13 16:32:21 UTC

There are many different environmental injuries that can be cured by first aid techniques. For example I learned how to use a EPI pen, remove gloves, stop a bleed/ bandaging, and what to look for during an emergency. I also know the proper way to do CPR on infant and adult.

I can differentiate the roles between different sports medicine professions - (DOK 2)

251634_2 — 2024-11-13 16:43:45 UTC

During the sports medicine professions project I was able to research various different professions and learn more about them. This helps me prepare for the future because it provides insight into the background of my future career of physical therapy. Also I learned about other professions that my classmates made, and with those I learned a lot too.

I can perform first aid skills (splinting, bracing, blood control, taping, epi pen) - (DOK 3)

251634_2 — 2024-11-13 16:47:02 UTC

In this video I show how to use a epi pen. I learned how to use one and now I know what to do during an allergic reaction. It was very cool to use a trainer epi pen because I have never used one before. Also not pictured, I learned now to bandage to maintain blood control.

I can explain universal precautions - (DOK 2)

251634_2 — 2024-11-14 15:46:29 UTC

I know I have to use a barrier protection when doing CPR, use gloves for protection when working with or around blood and body fluids and to wash hands after removing gloves. I learned about the importance of protecting myself before helping a victim. This lesson provided me with a specific context which will be helpful in the future if a emergency were to occur.

I can recall the steps of activating EMS and chain of survival - (DOK 1)

251634_2 — 2024-11-14 15:53:08 UTC

After completing the EAP project I now know the importance of making a plan if a emergency were to occur. It is important to make sure everything runs smoothly if a emergency were to happen. There are many people who help out during this time to provide a safe environment during/after the emergency. During this project I researched various plans and learned a lot, it was very interesting to me.

After the second unit of sport medicine I learned many important things when performing first aid. It was also very cool to learn about many different taping techniques that are beneficial to know in the future. I enjoyed this unit a lot because of all of the labs and practices. It made me excited and prepared for the future because I will be studying exercise science. It was also very helpful to learn more about my dream career of physical therapy. All in all I really did enjoy this unit and I am excited to continue learning more in this class.

Unit 3: Advanced anatomy

251634_2 — 2024-12-16 14:17:53 UTC

I can summarize the function of skeletal and soft tissue anatomy for the ankle- (DOK 2)

251634_2 — 2024-12-16 15:23:27 UTC

The function of the skeletal anatomy is that the ankle joint is primarily formed by three bones: tibia, fibula, and talus. These bones create a hinge point that allows dorsiflexion and plantarflexion. I also learned that the tibia holds 95-97% body weight and fibula holds 3-5% body weight. The function of the soft tissue anatomy is that the ligaments provide stability by connecting the bones and preventing excessive motion. Tendons attach the muscles to bones, muscles surround the ankle, and cartilage cushions the joint surface.

I can critique movements that are associated with the Ankle joint - (DOK 3)

251634_2 — 2024-12-17 19:28:07 UTC

In this video I show how to complete the Thompson test. During the ankle evaluation lab I was able to perform tests and learn about these tests. I now know about the various tests and movements of ankle joints. I never knew that there are various tests that are used when testing for ankle injuries. These tests are used by professionals and I liked that I was able to learn them.

I can summarize the function of skeletal and soft tissue anatomy for the knee- (DOK 2)

251634_2 — 2024-12-17 19:42:06 UTC

The the skeletal anatomy for the knee includes the femur, tibia, patella. And the soft tissue anatomy includes ACL and PCL. I learned that the ACL stands for anterior cruciate ligament, and PCL stands for posterior cruciate ligament. I learned a lot from the notes we did and I enjoyed color coding each part. I also learned about what happens inside the knee when someone tears their ACL.

I can critique movements that are associated with the knee joint - (DOK 3)

251634_2 — 2024-12-17 19:46:52 UTC

During the knee evaluation lab I learned about new tests PTs do on patients to see if they tore their ACL. The most common injury in the knee is tearing your ACL therefore with the help of the knee notes I learned a lot about ACL tears, especially during this lab, where I was able to perform these tests on my friends. It was very cool to see how my partner's foot/knee reacted when I completed these tests.

251634_2 — 2024-12-17 19:53:46 UTC

After the third unit of sports medicine I learned about the lower part of the body. During the gait analysis lab I learned a ton about my walking pattern. I never knew that I walk the way I walk and I really enjoyed this lab. In addition to, during the Q-angle lab for the knee, I learned how to use cool tools when measuring for knee discrepancies. Overall this unit was every interesting. Sports medicine is a very fun class and I can't wait to learn more next semester in sports med 2. This class is preparing me for what I want to be in the future and I am glad to have some experience before college!
