15th Annual ACL Workshop at Mayo Clinic 2017
Course Director: Timothy Hewett, Ph.D.
The 15th Annual ACL workshop at Mayo Clinic 2017 is dedicated to the prevention, training and rehabilitation of athletes who are at risk for ACL injuries. This is the second year the workshop has been offered at Mayo Clinic Square. The Sports Medicine Team at Mayo Clinic and Mayo Clinic Square will detail the latest prevention programs for athletes. The course will detail and demonstrate that screening for and intervening against primary and secondary ACL injury in high risk populations such as females, adolescents and professional athletes is both efficacious and timely. Practicing clinicians will learn about differential effects of trunk- and hip-based neuromuscular training (NMT) on high risk profile groups. The course will provide greater understanding of the interaction between biomechanical and neuromuscular risk factors for both primary and secondary ACL injury, and can help explain the relationship(s) between underlying mechanics of ACL injury and specific risk factors.
Enrollment in the certification course and examination provides the learner with the opportunity to receive certification from Mayo Clinic Sports Medicine in MayoMetrics ACL Injury Prevention.
