Activity Description:

This is a virtual CME-certified educational intervention designed to address the identified gaps for sports related orthopedic injuries. The online format will allow for convenient access and thus reach a broad audience of medical professionals. Colorado has a very active community with people of all ages participating in several types of sports. It is not uncommon for someone to be injured to the degree EMS is called to respond. This CME will review some of the most common sports injuries and the patterns of injury EMS should consider. The open discussion with EMS included with this presentation will address pre-hospital treatment plans, stabilization and pain management for various injuries associated with sports participation.
