MEDICAL INTERVENTIONS LAB

This laboratory course supplements the Medical Interventions lecture (ATR 642) and will prepare the athletic training student to work in a variety of settings with a diverse population. Students will explore the general medical evaluation process, including non-MSK evaluation, assessment, diagnosis, and referrals. In addition to a review of legal principles, students will gain a working knowledge of pharmacology and management of medication in the athletic training facility. An emphasis on knowledge of special conditions and working with special populations is included, as is practical application of bracing, splinting, and casting.
