THE MUSCULOSKELETAL READINESS SCREENING TOOL- ATHLETE CONCERN FOR INJURY PRIOR INJURY ASSOCIATED WITH FUTURE INJURY

摘要

BackgroundThe Musculoskeletal Readiness Screening Tool (MRST) was developed in an effort to consistently predict injury among military personnel. Current injury prediction tools have not consistently predicted injury in this population. The MRST is comprised of the weight bearing forward lunge, modified deep squat, closed kinetic chain upper extremity stability test (CKCUEST), forward step down with eyes closed, stationary tuck jump, unilateral wall sit hold, and subjective, individual perceived level of risk for injury. The Feagin hop and self-reported history of injury were also included in this study protocol. The Feagin hop was a functional test used consistently by the orthopedic department located at the testing site as well as used in a recent study aimed at defining a return to duty screen; self-reported history of injury has been identified as a potential predictor of injury.
