Sport First Aid - - Bog - Human Kinetics Publishers - Plusbog.dk

Approximately 90 percent of high school student-athletes report sustaining an injury while participating in sports. With only about one-third of high schools in the United States having full-time athletic trainers and another third lacking any athletic trainer services, you—the coach—are often the first responder when an injury occurs. This reality underscores the importance of providing you with proper training in first aid and injury prevention. Such training prepares you to act quickly and appropriately when an athlete is injured or becomes ill, ensuring the safety and well-being of your student-athletes. As a current or aspiring high school or club coach, you can rely on Sport First Aid, Sixth Edition, for the information you need to be a capable and confident first responder. The sixth edition has been revised and restructured. It features an unparalleled author team of experts in athletic training, sports medicine, exercise science and physiology, strength and conditioning, and sport coaching. It reflects the leading health organizations’ latest emergency guidelines, including those for CPR, concussion, dehydration, and heat illness. Tailored specifically to your needs as a coach, the text covers causes, symptoms, and action steps for more than 100 injuries and illnesses.

Written by a sport psychology consultant and an athletic trainer, Psychology of Sport Injury provides a thorough explanation of the elements and effects of sport injuries along with up-to-date research and insights for practical application. The authors offer a contemporary approach to preventing, treating, rehabilitating, and communicating professionally about sport injuries that takes into account physical, psychological, and social factors.

The book explores the relevant biological, psychological, and social factors that affect given circumstances. The text consists of four parts: Understanding and Preventing Sport Injuries, Consequences of Sport Injury, Rehabilitation of Sport Injury, and Communication in Sport Injury Management. Psychology of Sport Injury includes evidence-based examples and demonstrates real-world applications that sport health care professionals often face with athletes. Additional pedagogical features include the following: • Focus on Research boxes provide the what and why of the latest research to complement the applied approach of the text. • Focus on Application boxes highlight practical examples to illustrate the material and maintain student engagement. • Psychosocial content aligned with the latest educational competencies of the National Athletic Trainers’ Association (NATA) helps students prepare for athletic training examinations and supports professional development for practitioners. • A prevention-to-rehabilitation approach gives a framework for understanding sport injury, including precursors to injury, pain as a complex phenomenon, adherence to rehabilitation, and communication and management of injuries with other health care professionals as well as the athlete. • A set of chapter quizzes and a presentation package aid instructors in testing student comprehension and preparing lectures. Psychology of Sport Injury is an educational tool, reference text, and springboard to new ideas for research and practice in any line of work exposed to sport injury.
