Blunt Trauma Injuries in the Athlete

Let's be blunt about it … there really isn't a lot of information out there on how to deal with blunt trauma. This is a growing concern because the speed and intensity of play in a variety of sports, and the associated injuries, have continued to escalate. Therefore, I invited Dr Thomas DeBerardino, who has extensive experience on this topic from his career in the military to include a stent as the Chief of Sports Medicine at West Point, to organize an issue of Clinics in Sports Medicine on this topic. As usual, Tommy came through with flying colors!
