  • The Relationship Between Humeral Torsion and Arm Injury in Baseball Players: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis:
    Sports health, 2020
    Co-Authors: Joshua K. Helmkamp, Ellen Shanley, Charles A. Thigpen, Garrett S. Bullock, Allison Rao, Grant E. Garrigues
    Abstract:

    Context:Humeral torsion (HT) has been linked to various injuries and benefits. However, the exact interplay between HT, shoulder range of motion (ROM), competition level differences, and Injury ris...

  • SUBSEQUENT Arm Injury RISK FOLLOWING REHABILITATION AND RETURN TO SPORT
    British Journal of Sports Medicine, 2017
    Co-Authors: Ellen Shanley, Amanda Arnold, Richard J. Hawkins, John M. Tokish, Michael J. Kissenberth, Douglass Wyland, Charles A. Thigpen
    Abstract:

    Background Reports of return to play(8–80%) and subsequent Injury(15–30%) are variable following Arm injuries in baseball players with no known risk factors. Objective We aimed to prospectively examine the influence of Injury history, return to sport criteria, and baseball participation as risk factors in youth and adolescent baseball players returning to sport following rehabilitation. Design Prospective cohort study. Setting Youth through adolescent baseball leagues. Patients (or Participants) Injured baseball players (n=60;age=15.3±2.5 months) were followed for atleast 1 year (15.8±9.6 months) after returning to sport. Interventions (or Assessment of Risk Factors) All players9 ROM, strength and outcome scores were measured and met predetermined criteria for return to sport. Players were surveyed monthly for participation, competition level, and the development of injuries. All subsequent injuries were verified as overuse time-loss injuries by team athletic trainer, physical therapist, or physician. Main Outcome Measurements Bivariate correlations were used to evaluate the relationship between Injury history, return to sport criteria, and baseball participation. Forward stepwise logistic regression using significant (r>.25; P Results Seven players reported an Injury prior to the index Injury. Twenty players suffered a subsequent time-loss Arm Injury. Development of a subsequent Arm Injury was correlated with previous Injury(r=.45; P =0.002) and advancing one competitive level(r=.32; P =0.01). The final regression model revealed that players reporting an prior Injury to the index Injury were 20.5 (1.8–147.5 95% CI) times greater risk of a subsequent overuse Arm Injury than in players without a previous Injury history. Conclusions Injury history and advancing competition levels increases the risk of a subsequent Arm Injury despite achievement of evidence based return to sport criteria. Clinicians should consider counseling and monitoring of youth and adolescent baseball players returning back to sport, especially after multiple Arm injuries.

  • Effectiveness of a Preseason Prevention Program on Arm Injury Risk Factors: An Randomized Control Trial in Adolescent Pitchers.
    Orthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine, 2016
    Co-Authors: Charles A. Thigpen, Richard J. Hawkins, Michael J. Kissenberth, Lane Bailey, Thomas J. Noonan, Ellen Shanley
    Abstract:

    Objectives:Deficits in posterior shoulder flexibility and strength have been identified as modifiable risk factors for pitching injuries. There are no studies showing the effect of a prevention program on Arm injuries and associated risk factors such as strength and ROM. The purpose of this study was to assess the effectiveness of a preseason prevention program to resolve these deficits in adolescent pitchers.Methods:Baseball pitchers (n=143 age=15.7±1.2; height=165.0±43.8cm; weight=72.2±12.6kg) participating in all team activities were block randomized by school to intervention (INV n=88) or control (CON n=76) groups. The INV group received an Athletic Trainer supervised posterior shoulder flexibility and strengthening program (3x/week for 8-weeks). The CON group participated in their usual training. All pitchers participated in a 4-week interval-throwing program immediate to the start of practice. Bilateral shoulder ROM and strength were assessed pre-post program using a digital inclinometer (DI) to mea...
