About Course

Effective on-field management of acute sports injuries requires clinicians to make rapid, informed decisions in challenging environments. From the initial assessment through to determining whether an athlete can safely return to play, clinicians need a clear understanding of assessment priorities, injury management and clinical decision-making pathways.

Acute Sports Injuries: On-Field Assessment and Management provides clinicians with a practical, evidence-based framework for assessing and managing acute sports injuries in the sporting environment. The course focuses on the initial assessment of injured athletes, clinical decision-making and the immediate management strategies required on the field.

Emphasis is placed on practical application, equipping clinicians with the confidence and clinical reasoning required to assess acute injuries, identify injuries requiring further investigation and make appropriate decisions regarding immediate management and return to play.
