Implementing Health and Safety Policy Changes at the High School Level From a Leadership Perspective.
CONCLUSIONS:  The initiating factor that spurred the change varied, yet shared leadership and communication fundamentally allowed for successful adoption of the policy. Our participants were influenced by the recommendations from national governing bodies, which align with the institutional change theory. As more states begin to examine and improve their health and safety policies, this information could serve as a valuable resource for athletic trainers in other states and for future health and safety initiatives.

National Athletic Trainers' Association Position Statement: Exertional Heat Illnesses.
Abstract OBJECTIVE:  To present best-practice recommendations for the prevention, recognition, and treatment of exertional heat illnesses (EHIs) and to describe the relevant physiology of thermoregulation. BACKGROUND:  Certified athletic trainers recognize and treat athletes with EHIs, often in high-risk environments. Although the proper recognition and successful treatment strategies are well documented, EHIs continue to plague athletes, and exertional heat stroke remains one of the leading causes of sudden death during sport. The recommendations presented in this document provide athletic trainers and a...

Environmental Conditions and the Occurrence of Exertional Heat Illnesses and Exertional Heat Stroke at the Falmouth Road Race.
Conclusions :  Because of the environmental conditions and race duration, the Falmouth Road Race provides a unique setting for a high incidence of EHS . A clear relationship exists between environmental stress, especially as measured by Tamb and HI, and the occurrence of EHS or other EHIProper prevention and treatment strategies should be used during periods of high environmental temperatures as the likelihood of runners experiencing EHS is exacerbated in these harsh conditions.

The Secondary School Football Coach's Relationship with the Athletic Trainer and Their Perspectives on Exertional Heat Stroke.
Conclusions :  Thse secondary school coaches were unaware of the potential causes of EHS or the symptoms associated with EHS, and they had higher perceived levels of self-confidence in management abilities than indicated by their perceived knowledge level. The secondary school football coaches valued and understood the role of the AT regarding patient and emergency care. PMID: 24933433 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
