ATR-588 Epidemiology in Athletic Training

This course is designed to educate the post-professional certified athletic trainer with an in-depth study of how epidemiology informs the healthcare practices for physically active patients. Examination of the prevalence, risk factors, and surveillance of sports-related injury and illness at youth, college, and professional levels will be evaluated. Evidence-based practice requires clinicians to be knowledgeable of the current standards of care and promote their willingness to consider the research on emerging therapeutic interventions.
