Functional Movement Screen: Pain versus composite score and injury risk.

Objectives: The Functional Movement Screen (FMS™) has been used as a screening tool to determine musculoskeletal injury risk using composite scores based on movement quality and/or pain. However, no direct comparisons between movement quality and pain have been quantified.

Design: Retrospective injury data analysis.

Evaluating Injury Risk and Gender Performance on Health- and Skill-Related Fitness Assessments.

J Strength Cond Res 31(4): 971-980, 2017-The purpose of this analysis was to investigate the association of injury risk and gender performance on health- and skill-related fitness assessments.

The Functional Movement Screen and Injury Risk: Association and Predictive Value in Active Men.

Background: The Functional Movement Screen (FMS) is a series of 7 tests used to assess the injury risk in active populations.

Purpose: To determine the association of the FMS with the injury risk, assess predictive values, and identify optimal cut points using 3 injury types.

Study Design: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 2.

Pain on Functional Movement Screen Tests and Injury Risk.

The Functional Movement Screen (FMS) is a tool intended to evaluate limitations or asymmetries of movement to detect individuals at risk for exercise- and sports-related injury. The purpose was to determine the association and predictive value of specific FMS tests with injury risk in physically active men. Soldiers aged 18-57 years completed the FMS (n = 2,476).
