Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine what activities and skills interprofessional health science preceptors (IHSPs) perform and value as a part of their pedagogical practice in order to support the development of a preceptor self-assessment tool and assist in preceptor training.
Methods: We administered an online survey to identify core preceptor activities across health sciences disciplines that interact with nursing. The initial survey items were developed based on the Interprofessional Education Collaborative (IPEC) core competencies as well as a search of literature on expected preceptor competencies and activities across individual health sciences professions.
Objective: To describe acute lower extremity injuries and evaluate extrinsic risk factors in female youth soccer.
Design: Nested case-control study.
Setting: Youth soccer clubs in Seattle, WA.
Background: Despite recent increased awareness about sports concussions, few studies have evaluated the effect of concussion laws on concussion outcomes among young athletes. The purpose of our study was to evaluate the effect of the Washington State Zachery Lystedt Concussion Law on playing with concussion symptoms and being evaluated by a health care provider.
Methods: We performed a prospective cohort study of 351 elite female soccer players, aged 12 to 15 years, from 33 randomly selected youth soccer teams in the Puget Sound region of Washington State from 2008 to 2012.
Importance: Despite recent increased awareness about sports concussions, little research has evaluated concussions among middle-school athletes.
Objectives: To evaluate the frequency and duration of concussions in female youth soccer players and to determine if concussions result in stopping play and seeking medical care.
Design, Setting, And Participants: Prospective cohort study from March 2008 through May 2012 among 4 soccer clubs from the Puget Sound region of Washington State, involving 351 elite female soccer players, aged 11 to 14 years, from 33 randomly selected youth soccer teams.
Context: Most researchers investigating soccer injuries have studied elite athletes because they have greater athletic-exposure hours than other athletes, but most youth participate at the recreational level. If risk factors for injury vary by soccer level, then recommendations generated using research with elite youth soccer players might not generalize to recreational players.
Objective: To examine injury risk factors of strength and jump biomechanics by soccer level in female youth athletes and to determine whether research recommendations based on elite youth athletes could be generalized to recreational players.
Objective: To evaluate incidence, distribution, and contributing factors of injury in club gymnastics.
Design: Cross-sectional survey.
Setting: Five randomly selected gymnastics clubs near Seattle, WA.
Context: Few authors have evaluated sports injury-surveillance systems that use parental, Internet-based surveys for data collection.
Objective: To determine whether certified athletic trainers (ATs) and parental, Internet-based surveys provided comparable data for identifying soccer injuries.
Design: Prospective feasibility cohort study.
