Entrenador de atletismo

Información sobre el entrenador de atletismo

Lancaster Mennonite High School has the privilege of partnering with Penn Medicine Lancaster General Health to provide Ann Seatib as the athletic trainer. As the athletic trainer, Ann is available to work with any PIAA athlete who encounters an injury or illness.

Los entrenadores de atletismo son "profesionales sanitarios que colaboran con los médicos para optimizar la actividad y la participación de pacientes y clientes.[i]"

El entrenador atlético certificado (ATC) es la primera persona con la que el atleta debe ponerse en contacto cuando se produce una lesión. El ATC está presente en todos los entrenamientos y partidos y presta atención inmediata a las lesiones deportivas. El entrenamiento atlético abarca la prevención, el diagnóstico y la intervención en situaciones médicas de emergencia, agudas y crónicas que implican deterioro, limitaciones funcionales y discapacidades (NATA). Los entrenadores de atletismo también son imprescindibles a la hora de tratar a los atletas lesionados en un deporte específico para que vuelvan a jugar de la forma más eficaz y segura posible. El ATC es capaz de clasificar a cada atleta con el miembro apropiado del equipo de medicina deportiva, si es necesario.

Concussion Baseline Testing: SWAY

SWAY is an assessment that uses objective measuring to interpret cognitive function. It is used for injury management through baseline testing, sideline evaluation, and return-to-learn/return-to-play processes. SWAY combines objective balance and cognitive measures to support healthcare professionals in evaluations. Balance is measured through an accelerometer in the testing device. Cognitive testing includes visual processing, reaction time, and memory. SWAY baseline testing is used to compare the individuals scores if they were to sustain a head injury and to make sure that they return to their baseline after injury.

For more information about SWAY visit swaymedical.com/sports or  swaymedical.com/platform/research

Student athletes at LMS are to take a baseline SWAY test upon their first season in PIAA athletic participation. They will repeat their baseline test every 2 years due to youth development. For example, a student-athlete takes their baseline SWAY test as a new 7th grade student-athlete and then again in 9th and 11th grade.

To take the SWAY baseline test you will need to:

  • Download the SWAY medical app (with parental permission
  • Get test code from the Athletic Trainer (Do not create a log in)
  • charged smartphone/iPad that connects to the internet
  • At least 20 minutes in a distraction free environment
  • Put device on DO NOT DISTURB mode for test
  • Follow the instructions on the screen in the app

If you have any questions about the Physical Packet, SWAY testing or about the sports medicine program, please contact Lea Lumbert.
