SKASC22 Assist athletes to prevent and manage injury Overview [Injury prevention and management is an important component of a coaching programme for participants in many sports and activities. To be effective, injury prevention and management has to be properly integrated into the participants’ programme. It is vital that coaches analyse the participants’ current level of risk of injury, select and plan activities, information and advice that will help to minimise risks, evaluate and refine the injury prevention strategy and work with other specialists to assess injuries when they occur and evaluate their implications. Coaches will also integrate this injury management/recovery strategy into the wider coaching programme, directly provide activities that will assist injury management and recovery and evaluate and refine the injury management/recovery strategy. Coaches must also take account of guidelines from national governing bodies, experts and their own prior experience when designing and delivering injury prevention and management strategies. The standard is divided into two parts these are: D511.1 D511.2 Assist athletes to minimise the risk of injury Assist athletes to manage and recover from injury ] [URN NOS Title] 1 SKASC22 Assist athletes to prevent and manage injury Performance criteria You must be able to: Assist athletes to minimise the risk of injury P1 analyse the participants’ current risk of injury in relation to their level of development, previous history and the demands of the sport P2 select and plan activities, information and advice that will help the participants minimise the risk of injury P3 where necessary, seek the support of other specialist staff P4 ensure that your strategy for injury prevention effectively supports and integrates with other programme components P5 provide your planned activities, information and advice to minimise the risk of injury P6 evaluate and review the success of your strategy for injury prevention P7 monitor and refine your strategy for injury prevention as part of the participants’ programme Assist athletes to manage and recover from injury P8 work with the participant and specialist staff to evaluate the nature of the injury and its physical and psychological implications for performance and rehabilitation P9 work with the participant and specialist staff to devise a strategy to assist the participant to manage and recover from injury P10 ensure the strategy is effectively integrated into the overall coaching programme P11 provide and support agreed activities that will assist the participant to manage and recover from the injury P12 evaluate and review the success of your strategy for injury management and recovery P13 monitor and refine your strategy for injury management and recovery as part of the coaching programme [URN NOS Title] 2 SKASC22 Assist athletes to prevent and manage injury Knowledge and understanding You need to know and understand: K1 Definition of terminology in injury prevention and management K2 the difference in body tissues such as skin, bone, muscles and joints, vascularity and innervation K3 Inflammation K3.1 First response to injury K3.2 Pathology the changes in structure and function and why this occurs K4 K3.3 Acute and chronic K3.4 Importance to healing Aetiology the cause of injury K4.1 Traumatic and overuse K4.2 Secondary or compensatory injury K4.3 Poor management of a previous acute injury such as not fully regaining the parameters of fitness, poor re-education of proprioception, muscle fibres atrophy at varying rates K5 Body types and growth spurts K6 The effects of fatigue K7 Poor training methods, equipment, training and competition facilities, technique, skill level K8 Types of muscle imbalance such as core stability, agonist, antagonist ratios K9 Types of postural defects such as congenital and acquired K10 Foot posture and types of footwear K11 The components of fitness such as flexibility, joint, muscle, role of stretching, endurance, aerobic, local muscle, strength, speed and power, skill, co-ordination and balance and their roles in injury management K12 The continuum of injury management such as role of the coach and support staff in musculoskeletal profiling, assessment, diagnosis, first aid, treatment, rehabilitation, testing for fitness, injury prevention, monitoring of technique, monitoring progress and modifying injury management related to the parameters of fitness [URN NOS Title] 3 SKASC22 Assist athletes to prevent and manage injury K13 The psychology of injury such as reaction of the injured athlete, coach, team mates and support staff and providing support K14 Treatment rationale , research and its dependency on the stages of healing K15 Developing measures for injury prevention such as generic and sports specific, monitoring injuries both individual and group and related to the aetiology of the injury, parameters of fitness K16 Factors to consider when an athlete is returning to differing levels of training and competition such as weights, contact, skills and drills and type of training surface K17 Coaching practices such as integrating injured athletes into training, including presenting information, modifying training to cater for injured and fully fit athletes, adjusting techniques and intensities according to athlete feedback K18 The role of others in prevention and the management of injuries K19 How to co-ordinate a interdisciplinary approach to injury prevention and management K20 The considerations to be taken into account such as growing athletes, sports-specific, gender, disability, stretching and warm up and cool down K21 relevance to injury prevention and management of warm up and cool down K22 The importance of differentiating between stretching and warm up.
