Core strength: A new model for injury prediction and prevention
OBJECTIVE Many work in injury prone awkward positions that require adequate flexibility and strength in trunk stabilizer muscle groups. Performance on a functional movement screen (FMS) that assessed those factors was conducted and an intervention was designed. METHODS A battery of FMS tests were performed on 433 firefighters. We analyzed the correlation between FMS performance and injuries a...
متن کاملPreventing heat injuries by predicting individualized human core temperature
Heat injury is a problem for the Armed Forces, especially during deployment to localities with very hot and humid climates. Early warning of a rising core body temperature (TC) can help prevent heat injuries. To this end, we developed an algorithm that, given a series of past TC measurements obtained using an ingestible temperature pill, accumulates evidence of a rising TC over time and provide...
متن کاملCore Stability Training for Injury Prevention
CONTEXT Enhancing core stability through exercise is common to musculoskeletal injury prevention programs. Definitive evidence demonstrating an association between core instability and injury is lacking; however, multifaceted prevention programs including core stabilization exercises appear to be effective at reducing lower extremity injury rates. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION PUBMED WAS SEARCHED FOR ...
متن کاملCore competencies for injury and violence prevention.
Efforts to reduce the burden of injury and violence require a workforce that is knowledgeable and skilled in prevention. However, there has been no systematic process to ensure that professionals possess the necessary competencies. To address this deficiency, we developed a set of core competencies for public health practitioners in injury and violence prevention programs. The core competencies...
متن کاملAcclimation to humid heat lowers resting core temperature.
The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that a reduction in resting rectal temperature (Tre) is partially responsible for the attenuation in the rise of core temperature during heat exposure following acclimation to humid heat. Nine male volunteers completed 7 days of acclimation, performing 2 h of exercise per day in a hot, humid environment (35°C, 75% relative humidity). Mean (±S...
