ما علاقة كارثة الزلزال بقضايا المرأة؟ ولماذا يُعَدُّ التمييز بين ما هو طبيعي وما هو ثقافي ضروري هنا؟ في محاولة للإجابة عن هذه الأسئلة وغيرها، نأخذكم في هذه الحلقة من بودكاست "فضاءاتهن" في جولة إلى عالم الطبيعة، لنتعرّف سوية على الأنثى في الطبيعة، على أنثى الحيوان، والأمزجة والطباع المختلفة لأنثى الحيوان. هل النظام الحيواني بطريركي أم مطريركي؟ كيف ينظر داروين إلى الأنثى في الطبيعة؟ من أنثى البونوبو الألفا، إلى حوت الأوركا القاتلة، هل العودة إلى الطبيعة تفيد التفكير النسوي الأخلاقي والسياسي في شيء؟

فضاءاتهن | الأنثى في الغابة: بطريركية أم مطريركية؟

Zohra El Fassia - Aïta Akki Atta (Pathé, 1951)

This is a podcast by Dr Robert-Jan de Vos, sports physician in the Erasmus Medical Centre in the Netherlands, with Guustaaf Reurink, who is a registrar in Sports medicine in the Netherlands and is currently finishing his thesis on diagnosis and treatment of acute hamstring injuries. Recently, he published a paper in the New England Journal of Medicine about the role of Platelet-rich Plasma (PRP) treatment for acute hamstring injuries (http://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMc1402340). 

We start with discussing this interesting study, which did not show a benefit of PRP injections in acute hamstring injuries. Dr Reurink expresses the methods and results of this study and possible explanations for these findings are debated.

Dr Reurink also performed a number of studies on the value of clinical tests and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) in acute hamstring injuries. Previously, he already showed that most MRIs are still abnormal when the athlete already returned to gameplay (http://bjsm.bmj.com/content/early/2013/11/19/bjsports-2013-092450.abstract?eaf). 

We close by discussing the role of MRI and standardised clinical tests as a predictor of time to return to play and re-injury.

Toukadime Radio #26

Dr Kieran O’Sullivan, PT, PhD, was one of the first podcast guests to crack 9,000 listens! From the University of Limerick, Ireland, he has vast clinical experience and he completed a PhD on the role of sitting in back pain. In this 18-minute podcast he reviews his 2015 podcast in the first 3 minutes and then rattles off at least 7 practical tips. 

Kieran was a guest of PhysioFirst (UK) when BJSM interviewed him in April 2015. The 2017 PhysioFirst conference is on April 1-2 (2017!) in Nottingham (UK) and guest speakers include Professor Paul Hodges, Dr Tania Pizzari and Dr Igor Tak. 

Timeline: 
1.00 m Back pain is neither explained by what patients and clinicians see on scans nor just by load

2.00 m When treating, you need to assess the various factors that could be playing a role, such as load, posture, stress, and address the right one. 

4.00 m Should we try to prevent all back pain? Listen to Dr O’Sullivan challenge the belief that it’s important to never have back pain. He likens back pain to conditions like sadness, constipation – not great but not a major problem as long as it doesn’t persist. Athletes need to load their bodies and adapt rather than avoid load and become vulnerable (See Gabbett papers and podcast, below). Don’t pass on fear (of back pain coming on or persisting) to athletes. 

5.00 m Screen for red flags of course, if the clinical picture warrants it – but most long-term back pain is NOT due to something listed as a red flag. 

6.00 m Reassurance – being empathetic without inducing fear. 

7.00 m Think through. What precipitated the pain? Too much load, too much stress, bad posture, movement patterns? If unknown, have patient create a pain diary. Look for trends. Examine all the dimensions of the biopsychosocial model. 

9:00 m Don’t just make the diagnosis but be practical. Patient sad? Don’t just say ‘You are sad, your back pain will go away’. Provide specific treatment for the specific threat. 

10:00 m Empower the patient to choose the exercises he or she wants and what he or she will do! Exercise has benefits across systems. 

11:00 m Don’t give up. Here Kieran walks us through a challenging real life case. A simple tissue diagnosis would not have helped this person at the centre of the case 

12:00 m Explain! Explain the pain! (HT to Professor Lorimer Moseley and Dr David Butler).  

13:00 m The period at 4-6 weeks of pain can be difficult – patient has not adapted to the contemporary model and may still be on waiting list for imaging. 

14:00 m What is the evidence for this approach? How does the evidence compare, with, for example Hamstring injuries?

The Warwick Agreement on the management of femoroacetabular impingement syndrome with Damian Griffin

Professor Peter O’Sullivan is among the top 3 most popular physiotherapy voices on podcasts and here he focuses on myths and harmful beliefs about back pain. He takes a swing at clinicians who rely excessively on imaging findings to attempt to explain the source of pain. He shares the story of a clinician who told a patient his spine was ‘shredded’. 

Prof O’Sullivan emphasizes the importance of history taking, finding factors that can sensitize neural tissue and gives an overview of treatment. He will be the keynote Refshauge Lecturer at Sports Medicine Australia’s 2016 Conference (#SMAConf16, @SMA_Events). 

Timeline: 
0.35 m - A sneak preview of the Refshaughe lecture plan – back pain is a big problem and those in sport can learn from what is known in back pain in the general population

2.17 m - Patients respond well to a combination of explanation, being shown ways they can get back to the things they love to do, and appropriate progressive exercises

4.21 m - A case where a patient could have been treated with early investigation, aggressive medical intervention, potentially surgery. An alternative approach to management

6.48 m - How junior clinicians can approach the patient who presents with a bag of images or a medical note that may not reflect current best practice for managing back pain

9.45 m - The biology of how neural tissue can be sensitized by lack of sleep, stress. Fascinating neuroimmunology

10.55 m - You do treat the back don’t you? It’s not just explaining pain, counseling?  

12.30 m - Parallels with work of other physiotherapists such as Prof Jill Cook (@ProfJillCook) and Dr Alison Grimaldi (@alisongrimaldi) who advocate for progressive loading as a stimulus for healing. “Backs love movement”

13.55 m - A 30-second summary!

Prof Peter O’Sullivan’s sneak peek of Refshauge Lecture on Back Pain: Sports Medicine Australia 2016

Dr Clare Ardern is a sports physiotherapy researcher at Linkoping University in Sweden. She carries Australia’s prestigious NHMRC’s top scholarship for clinician researchers – the 4-year Fellowship Award.  You may know of her publications that highlight the relatively low return to play rates after ACL reconstruction. In this podcast, she addresses return to play more broadly. From 12-15th October this year she will be a keynote speaker at Sports Medicine Australia’s conference. You can follow that via BJSM Twitter #SMAConf16 and Facebook.

She was interviewed by Dr Christian Barton, who is a well-published physiotherapist PhD as well. He serves as BJSM Deputy Editor and the Editor responsible for Social Media (small job! easy!).

Timeline:
1:00m - Where did the Return To Play Consensus come from?

2:00m - Defining Return to Play; what does it mean in different settings

3:00m - The difference in RTP for o/c acute – removal from play?

4: 10 - Decision making – how should the return to play decision be made?

3:30m - Return to Play is a continuum that requires meticulous planning

4:00m - When can the athlete return to a pre-injury (or better) level of performance?

4:30m - What is the evidence for return to play decisions? Spoiler alert! – It’s limited. 

5:20m - Taking the emphasis of the ‘one day’ that players focus on to be back at sport. The concept of a continuum (from when you first see the athlete). 

6:45 - Return to play and returning to perform at the previous level. Are there important differences? What can clinicians do to help players get back to that level?

8:30m - Does ‘Return to Play’ end? It’s very different for different athletes. 

10:10m - Should athletes have ACL reconstruction after ACL injury? What does the research show? 

11:40 - Clare’s perspective on the return to play data after ACL reconstruction in the non-elite players. 

12:15 - An example of a player in the English Premier League who was ACL deficient.

Dr Clare Ardern (Sweden) shares the latest on Return to Play – World Congress Consensus Statement

In this podcast, Steffan Griffin of the BJSM speaks to Dr Andrew Murray – SEM consultant & adventurer (amongst other things!), who is currently undertaking a PhD looking into ‘Golf and Health’. We talk about how the Golf and Health project was born, and some of the notable findings from his recently published scoping review. This is a must-listen for any SEM professional/student, not only due to some of the clinical pearls, but due to the fact that this is a shining light of what other sports could also be doing!
