Sports Medicine Care of Athletes with Disabilities
Stephanie Tow, MD
Presented by the Texas Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Society
The Paralympic movement and other similar sports movements continue to inspire more individuals with disabilities to get involved in sports, recreation, and physical activity. As the population of athletes with disabilities (i.e. “Para athletes” or “adaptive athletes”) has grown, the need for comprehensive sports medicine support for Para athletes has evolved. This presentation will provide an overview of the role of adaptive sports in individuals with disabilities and sports medicine care of these athletes. Upon completion of this activity, participants will be able to: (1) identify adaptive sports resources available to athletes with disabilities in the Texas region and nationally; (2) describe the benefits of adaptive sports for individuals with disabilities; and (3) recognize clinical signs and symptoms of sports-related injuries or illnesses in athletes with disabilities and how they may differ from athletes without disabilities, and assess when to refer a patient to an adaptive/Para sports medicine specialist.
