The Suitability of Global Rating Scales to Monitor Arthroscopic Training Progress

JJ Stunt, GMMJ Kerkhoffs, B van Ooij, IN Sierevelt, MU Schafroth, CN van Dijk, J Dragoo and GJM Tuijthof

Article Type: Original Article | Indexed Archive: Volume 2

As developing arthroscopic skills is challenging and training time for residents is limited, arthroscopic skill competency of residents should be measured. Assessment tools, such as Global Rating Scales (GRS), have been developed for structured, objective feedback and to assess learning curves. The goal of this study is to assess known-groups and convergent validity of these scales, to evaluate the suitability of these scales to monitor training progress of residents....

Ludivine Paris, Martine Duclos, Romain Guidoux, Nicolas Lamaudiere and Sylvie Rousset

Article Type: Original Article | Indexed Archive: Volume 2

Western lifestyle characterized by lack of physical activity and diet rich in fat and refined sugars is associated with various non-communicable chronic health diseases. The prevalence of obesity worldwide is steadily increasing. In 2014, 39% of adults worldwide were overweight and 13% were obese.

A Comprehensive Kinematic Analysis during a 15 Km Submaximal Training Run

Joshua P. Bailey, John A. Mercer and Janet S. Dufek

Article Type: Original Article | Indexed Archive: Volume 2

Recent studies have investigated biomechanics of running during competitive road races in an attempt to record endurance runners in their natural environment, due to the ability to measure numerous runners in a short period of time. A key focus area for running races are the foot strike pattern differences among foot wear conditions, running speed measured as finishing time and changes related to fatigue during later stages of the race. Identification utilizing two-dimensional video analysis has...

Physical Activity Prevalence and Awareness after an Exercise is Medicine on Campus Campaign, 2011-2013

Kelly R Rice, Tim K Behrens, Rachel L Cline, Lisa Hines and Kristin Sturm

Article Type: Original Article | Indexed Archive: Volume 2

The benefits of physical activity (PA) are well known, and documented to include: reduced risk of cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes, depression, and other widespread preventable disease. It is recommended that adults participate in at least 150 minutes of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) per week in order to receive health benefits. Despite the numerous benefits one can accumulate through participation in PA, levels remain low and decline during adolescence into adulthood....
