CSM RECAP MARCH 2018
COMBINED SECTIONS MEETING SLAYS RECORD: 17,000 ATTENDEES! The 2018 Combined Sections Meeting was another huge success. A record 17,000 participants attended the conference this year from February 21-24 in New Orleans, Louisiana. With only a brief walk from the convention center to the famous French Quarter, New Orleans offered an exciting venue for education, food, drink, entertainment, and culture. The SPTS educational activities kicked off with a pre-conference session by Rafael Escamilla, Kevin Wilk, and Kyle Yamashiro. The focus of the session was on the epidemic of UCL injuries in youth and adult pitchers. The

speakers addressed UCL tear risk factors, pitching mechanics, treatment options, current rehab techniques, and case studies. Programming continued with the Section’s popular early morning educational series. Previously named Coffee and Cases, the Section has changed the name to Morning Sports Rounds and increased the number of sessions. These sessions offer a more intimate setting to promote discussion and engagement with speakers. Topics included return to play after ACL injury, hip rehabilitation, return to play for pediatric patients, and shoulder evaluation.
Sports platform presentations included the return of the “Science Meets Practice” series. These sessions combined research platforms and clinical application. Researchers presented their studies in short 10-minute intervals and expert moderators presented afterwards to discuss practical applications of the research for the duration of the allotted time. The annual section business meeting at CSM on Thursday evening was eventful as the membership voted to change the section name from the Sports Physical Therapy Section (SPTS) to the American Academy of Sports Physical Therapy
(AASPT) to be more aligned with other sections making this transition. As President Walt Jenkins explained, “The name change also reflects our focus on education and the development of our field of practice. An academy is, by definition, a society or institution of distinguished clinicians, scholars, artists,or scientists, that aims to promote and maintain standards in its particular field as well as aplace of study or training in aspecial field. Both fit our organi-zation to a tee.” The business meeting was immediately followed by the much-
anticipated awards program, which honors SPTS members who have made an impact in the field of sports physical therapy as well as the section. A full listing of the award winners along with photographs are included in this issue of the e-newsletter. On Friday night, the Section celebrated the 45th anniversary of the founding of the Sports Physical Therapy Section. The celebration began with introductions by SPTS President Walt Jenkins, followed by a look at the past, present, and future of the Section. Three founding members were acknowledged for their contributions to the Section,

After the celebration, the event transitioned to the TeamMates meeting. With over 6,000 students in attendance at CSM, the SPTS continues to welcome new members and students be more involved in the Section. TeamMates paired Section “Rookies” with “Captains” to provide
students and early career members with guidance in Section involvement, member benefits, educational goals, and career advice. We look forward to seeing you at the next CSM in Washington, DC, from January 23-26, 2019!
Terry Malone, Barb Sanders, and George Davies share stories about the early days of SPTS, and about the founding members honored that evening. Their reminiscences were backdropped by a collection of photographs from SPTS events of the 70s, 80s and 90s. The presentation may be found on the SPTS YouTube Channel.

PREPARING FOR CSM 2019: SUBMISSION DEADLINE MARCH 21 and clinical application of current research.
Interested in submitting programming ideas for CSM 2019? Submissions are DUE March 21st!!!
Format for these SMP sessions: The format can be best understood by reviewing the tightly organized, fast-paced schedule which drives the unique nature of these sessions:
The Sports Physical Therapy Section (SPTS) puts on two types of educational sessions at the annual Combined Sections Meeting (CSM): Traditional Educational sessions and "Science Meets Practice" sessions. Traditional Educational Sessions: Traditional Education (TE) sessions are the classic two-hour sessions that are the backbone of CSM programming. They cover a wide range of topics taking advantage of the full two hours to provide a general overview or to take a more in-depth look at a particular concept.(recommended to have a panel of four speakers per session for these 2hour Traditional Education sessions). Those wishing to submit a proposal for a session SHOULD FIRST DISCUSS their submission with the Special Interest Group (SIG) chair that their topic would fall under (Sports Performance, Tactical Athlete, Running, etc). Once the SIG gives their feedback, go to the Scholar One system for CSM submissions. Submit as a 2hr Educational Submission. Select the SIG that you would like to formally review your submission. Fill out the required content as per Scholar One guidelines.
00:00 - 00:05 Overview of session format 00:05 - 00:29 Presentation of 4 short platforms 00:29 - 00:35 Moderator led Q&A 00:35 - 01:00 Moderator led case study integrating platforms Review/Selection Process: The SIG will review and rank TE submissions, but the SPTS Education Committee makes the final selections based on SIG reviews and overall schedule considerations. Audience Available room sizes for SPTS vary from 150 to 1,500 seats meaning that we will require a range of both niche and broad topics for TE sessions. HOPEFULLY COMING BACK FOR 2019!!! . . . "Science Meets Practice Sessions" Science Meets Practice (SMP) sessions are a unique combination of platforms and clinical application content being provided by the SPTS at CSM. At CSM 2018, ALL Sports Section platforms were presented in this format to maximize exposure
01:00 - 01:22 Dialogue #1 01:22 - 01:44 Dialogue #2 01:44 - 02:00 Moderator led Q&A/Summary of session For platform presenters, the platform is very brief (6-8min). Basically a quick summary. Questions asked will be quick and to the point. The case study is the opportunity to expound in more detail. You will be asked how your research might apply to the case. How to Submit: FIRST - discuss with the appropriate SIG chair. Platforms should be submitted through the usual channels via Scholar One as Abstracts. The Research Committee will review
and select platforms through their usual process. Those wishing to submit a proposal for a dialogue should first discuss their submission with a SPTS Special Interest Group (SIG) that relates to the proposed topic. Once the SIG gives their feedback, go to the Scholar One system for CSM submissions & submit as a 2 hr Educational Submission. Select the SIG that you would like to formally review your submission. Fill out the appropriate objectives, description, references, and biographies of the two speakers being proposed. In the schedule enter the following content, replacing [the content in brackets]: 00:00 - 00:05 Overview of session format 00:05 - 00:29 Platforms 00:29 - 00:35 Moderator led Q&A 00:35 - 01:00 Moderator led case study integrating platforms 01:00 - 01:22 [Title of Dialogue #1] 01:22 - 01:44 [Title of Dialogue #2] 01:44 - 02:00 Moderator led Q&A/Summary of session Sample Dialogue Titles Used Previously Sample 1: Accelerated Rehab After ACLR (#1) Delayed Rehab After ACL (#2) Sample 2: Focus on Injury Prevention in Runners (#1) Focus on Treating Injuries in Runners (#2)

Review/Selection Process: SIGs will individually review and rank SMP submissions by topic and the SPTS Education and Research Committees make the final selections based on SIG reviews and overall schedule considerations.
Hip Mike Reiman reiman.michael@gmail.com
Final Session Assembly: Once the dialogues and platforms are selected, the Education/Research Committees will assign platforms and moderators to relevant dialogues in order to finalize the SMP session. Audience: Available room sizes for SPTS vary from 150 to 1,500 seats meaning that we will require a range of both niche and broad topics for SMP sessions.

2018 ELECTIONS: OFFICIAL SLATE On April 1, 2018, the SPTS will launch its election module for the 2018 election.
We hope for a large turnout for this election, and full participation from our graduate members.
The election will close at midnight, EST, on April 30, and results will be announced on May 1.
If you experience difficulty logging in, please email Mary Wilkinson at mwilkinson@spts.org.
A few notes about voting:
Reminders will be sent weekly and just before the close date of the election to all members.
• One must be a member of SPTS on March 28 in order to be loaded into the voting module. This means members must be listed by the APTA in their downloadable roster at that time. New members joining after March 28 will not be included in the voting process. • Only graduate PT and PTA members may vote. Student members are unable to vote. The election module scans for membership status (PT, PTA and STU) which is part of the APTA roster upload. • The election module is straightforward and easy to use. It also registers when a member votes so multiple votes are not possible.

INTRODUCTION TO EFFORTS OF THE NEWLY ESTABLISHED COUNCIL, FRONTIERS IN REHABILITATION SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY (FiRST) Overview The incorporation of innovative medical technologies and approaches into clinical care promises to expand the scope of physical therapy practice towards new frontiers. Sensing technologies and Robotics offer individuals with disabilities exciting new possibilities for communicating, moving and interacting with their surroundings. Regenerative medicine aims to treat and cure a host of injuries, diseases and age-related tissue declines through the development of cellular therapeutics and tissue engineering technologies. Accordingly, in the not-so-distant-future, precision medicine will allow physical therapists to prescribe rehabilitation programs that are targeted and specific, according to the patient’s genotype.
Finally, telehealth will allow individuals in even the most remote areas of the country to receive access to state-of-the-art treatments. This is just the beginning. Building on the Physical Therapy and Society Summit (PASS), APTA’s Board of Directors established the Frontiers in Rehabilitation Science and Technology Council to help prepare its members for the future.
overall goals. This may include physicians, bioengineers, geneticist, researchers, developers, etc.
FiRST Council The FiRST Council is composed of any APTA member in good standing. One does not have to be a member of any specific section or component. The council also welcomes “Council Partners” to join. Council Partners are individuals ineligible for APTA membership, but with an interest in helping to achieve FiRST’s
• Component Leaders: Deborah Larsen, Neurology; Bob Latz, HPA; Dan Malone, CVP; and Gary Chelburn ACAPT
The leadership team of the FiRST Council include the following • Co-Chairs: Steve Wolf and Colleen Kigin • Content Leaders: Alan Lee, Allon Goldberg, Randy Trumbower, Fabrisia Ambrosio
• BOD Representative: Sue Whitney Four Areas of Focus The first four major areas of focus were developed in response to the primary suggested
action areas identified during the Physical Therapy and Society Summit (PASS), but were also recognized as not the only areas of innovation and advancement for the profession. Other areas will be considered as this effort progresses. Regenerative Rehabilitation. Led by Fabrisia Ambrosio, PT, PhD, members from this focus area have organized numerous national and international meetings/sessions on the topic of Regenerative Rehabilitation. Members have also developed a number of Regenerative Rehabilitation educational modules and resources, including two Independent Study Courses offered through the Orthopedic Section as well as a special series in the Physical Therapy journal. Ongoing efforts will further promote interactions with the regenerative medicine community with the goal of optimizing the synergistic effects of rehabilitation with regenerative medicine technologies for enhanced patient outcomes. Rehabilitation Telehealth. Led by Alan Lee, PT, PhD, DPT and members from this focus area have has been very active in assisting telehealth rehabilitation advocacy, education, research, and practice. Efforts include educational modules and resources,
including American Telemedicine Association's principles for delivering telerehabilitation services, an Independent Study Course offered through the Orthopedic Section, two learning center webinars, several Physical Therapy journal papers, and assisted with the FSBPT's telehealth regulatory resource guide. Genomics. Led by Allon Goldberg, PT, PhD and Catherine Curtis PT, EdD has focused on assisting educational programs on incorporation of genomics background and value to the profession. The group has been working on generating research and resources focusing on direct application to clinical practice, namely the importance of family history and genetic factors not only to risk and progression of rare diseases but also common chronic conditions and response to exercise interventions. The era of personalized medicine is here bringing with it greater emphasis on prevention, an area where physical therapists have an important role. Sensors and Robotics. Led by Randy D Trumbower, PT, PhD and members from this focus area are working to build research and teaching resource for clinicians, students, clients, caregivers, and researchers, to stay current on the emerging trends and concepts of sensing technologies and robotic interfaces. The team believes our profession will be vital in the design, development, and implementation of sensing technologies and robot interfaces. The goal of this group
is to highlight the every-expanding possibilities of interfacing sensing technologies and robotics with physical therapy to evaluate, treat, and monitor complex interactions within the human movement system following disease or injury. In other newsletters, more detail regarding each focus area will be highlighted. We encourage those interested in one or multiple areas to become part of the FiRST community. Get Involved APTA members in good standing can get involved by visiting APTA Communities and selecting “Frontiers in Rehabilitation, Science and Technology (FiRST)”. If you would like to become more involved with the Council, select “Sign Up”. This will insure that you receive notification of activities related to FiRST. If you are aware of individuals that would like to be a FiRST Council Partner, please have them contact practice-dept@apta.org. We will keep you apprised of upcoming meetings for the council.
THE TRAVELING FELLOWSHIP EXPERIENCE; AND YOUR CHANCE TO PARTICIPATE The Spring 2017 Kevin Wilk Traveling Fellowship, sponsored by the SPTS and DonJoy, was an incredible opportunity for both personal and professional growth. There is really no good reason not to apply and experience this opportunity to travel and meet some of the most well recognized Sports Physical Therapists in the country. I was interested in the Fellowship for the primary reason that I was stuck in a rut with my career. I’ve been a practicing therapist for ten years and reached the point where I began to wonder “What’s next, what else is out there?” It is safe to say that I was not disappointed. The Traveling Fellowship met and exceeded all of my expectations and renewed some of the
By Michael Gaddini enthusiasm I had as a new therapist. Meeting and seeing amazing people doing incredible things at fantastic institutions was inspiring. From Ben Hogan Sports Medicine in Texas, to ATI in South Carolina, and finally the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota, each location had so much to offer. Our hosts were all giving and completely vested in having us learn and experience all they had to offer. We got a taste of everything, from research to teaching to patient care, all in a very collaborative environment. It was a chance to see Sports Physical Therapy at its best.
back not only feeling like a more confident therapist, but more mature and professional as well. I was placed in situations that were definitely out of my personal comfort zone, but completing the Fellowship, although tiring, was truly rewarding. Whether you are a new therapist looking to gain experience, or a more seasoned therapist searching for new perspective and growth, I highly, highly recommend considering the SPTS Kevin Wilk Traveling Fellowship. Applications for the fall 2018 Kevin Wilk Traveling Fellowship are nowing being accepted until June 30. For more information and application forms, follow this link: https://spts.org/education/spts-traveling-fellowship
I felt like this trip helped me grow personally as well. I came

Running is a demanding physical activity performed by millions of persons worldwide. Given the repetitive high-impact nature of running, many individuals who engage in this form of exercise experience pain or become injured. For the professional or avid runner, this pain and injury can cause frustration and loss of running time. For the sports medicine clinician, managing the injured runner can be challenging as the cause(s) of running injuries are often multifactorial. The Science of Running Medicine brings together three of the leading clinical researchers involving running mechanics and injury. With a combined 75+ years of clinical practice and 350+ publications, the faculty is committed to providing health care professionals and the running community with evidenced-based strategies to advance running injury management. The Science of Running Medicine recognizes that not all runners are created equal, and neither are the injury prevention and recovery methods. By combining science and practice, successful approaches can be individualized for you, your patients and your clients.
