Sports Medicine Conference
The University of Iowa
Larson Conference Room JPP UIHC
6:50-8:00am every Thursday
Objectives and Format
The objectives of the Iowa Sports Medicine Conference are to bring the
sports medicine groups on campus together to share information about our
specialties in support of the sports medicine team; to present new and
important directions in sports medicine spanning age, gender, and
activity populations; to discuss and draw conclusions about best
practices in sports medicine; and to discover our differing approaches
to common sports medicine problems and issues.
Every Thursday Sports Medicine Grand Rounds occurs in
the Larson conference Room.
The conference is broken into two parts with the first ½ hour devoted to
an orthopaedic topic. The
first and third Thursday of the month is presented by the sports
medicine fellow. The second
Thursday of the month is presented by an orthopaedic attending
presentation. The last
Thursday is presented by one or both of the residents from either the
purple or black team on an alternating basis.
The second ½ hour of sports rounds is presented by primary care
sports medicine, athletic training, physical therapy or an outside
guest. Below are the
assignments for the year beginning the second week of August.
The presenter should provide a copy of the
presentation to Dr. Dan Foster (e-mail, disc, or memory stick) or save any PowerPoint’s to the
“Thursday Sports Conferences folder” under “Sports Medicine” on the
Shared (S:) drive.
Presenters are also encouraged to ask the sports Attendings if they have
a talk already put together on the assigned topic that can be
used/modified. This should
reduce preparation time. All
presentations should allow for discussion and interactive participation.
6;45 AM
: Preparation
and Coffee
6:50-7:20am
Format:
For residents and fellows, 25 minute case based presentation using
films, intra-operative photos and PowerPoint.
Should spend 5-10 minutes presenting and discussing a case; then
10-15 minutes to briefly discuss pertinent aspects of the topic
(i.e. classification, etiology, etc.) and article reviews of recent
literature (2-3 articles) that guides current accepted management.
The last 5 minutes saved for group discussion.
Assigned person should contact one of the sports staff to get an
appropriate case for discussion.
7:25- 8 am
Format : presentations will alternate between AT,( 1st week )
PT (second), primary Care ( third)
and OTHER services (fourth),
whatever the
presenter prefers, as above , case based or didactic format emphasizing
discussion and interactive participation.
The sessions should be organized to maximize discussion among the
audience participants. Discussion is best used if it is freely open and
accepted, differing opinions honored, broadly developed among the group,
and ushered by the presenters toward some consensus. We subscribe to the
methods of logical argument and all agree to disagree at times, while
working toward new ideas and projects to advance the field. In these
endeavors, we have several formats with which to design each
presentation. Possible session format descriptions are underlined below. |

Case Presentations |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
These are presentations that
highlight one or more cases where the cases offer an opportunity to
discuss basic and advanced concepts in epidemiology, assessment, and
management; or introduce rare and unique circumstances; or to gather
consensus about treatment/management. These are best discussed by a
description of the initial presentation of the patient, followed by
discussion of the group to determine what experience and approach each
have or would use, summarize the consensus of the group and then present
the actual progression of the case with implications. Each major
decision point along the way with the case should be conducted in this
way. The group responsible for the presentation should summarize the
case key issues and conclude with points our conference participants
should think about for education, research, and service implications.

Clinical Research Updates |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
These are topical issues of interest to a field of
clinical service working with sports medicine patients and clinical
issues. This can follow a typical lecture-discussion format but instead
of more lecture than discussion, we want to encourage more discussion
than lecture. In the 55 minute session, presenters should plan on about
20 minutes of lecture material. Controversy and poorly researched areas
of clinical problems are especially helpful, but these presentations may
also take the form of challenging accepted standards of care or
promoting a method of care that is relatively unknown to the conference
participants. In any case, the presentations should include frequent
summaries and indications/implications for education, research, and
service at the conclusion. |

Clinical Practice Updates |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
These are lecture-discussions focused on clinical
practices especially those that are controversial, new, outdated,
technically difficult, or span practice expertise with many groups, as
well as those that focus on single patient populations. This can follow
a typical lecture-discussion format but instead of more lecture than
discussion, we want to encourage more discussion than lecture. In the 55
minute session, presenters should plan on about 20 minutes of lecture
material. The presentations should include frequent summaries and
indications/implications for education, research, and service at the
conclusion. |

CEU's |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Participants must sign in for each conference in
order to get credit for CEUs and so that the Center can take
responsibility for monitoring participation. Athletic Trainers: The
University of Iowa is recognized by the Board of Certification, Inc. to
offer continuing education for Certified Athletic Trainers. This program
has been designated as 47.0 Continuing Education Units. To register for
BOC CEU units, participants must register for the Conference by August.
Registration involves an application through the CEU provider, Athletic
Training Education Program. Once registration occurs, your name will
appear on the sign-in roster. Participants who register after August for BOC CEUs will follow the same procedures, but
may have
a different CEU count from earlier participants as assigned by the
provider. See Dr. Dan Foster for BOC registration. |
