2017 Annual Meeting

The 2017 Annual Meeting provided the attendees a number of different educational sessions including evidence-based practice sessions, general lectures, and a key note address on tactical medicine delivered by Tim McLane, MBA, ATC, AEMT.  The attendees were provided the opportunity to practice the most recent spinal motion restriction techniques which included improvements in spine boarding and safety equipment removal, evaluation and treatment of the spine, and joint mobilizations for the shoulder.  Lectures included an update of concussion guidelines, working with the millennial generation, and evidence-based guidelines for evaluation and management of ankle injuries.  The meeting was well attended and was highlighted by an emotional and well-deserved induction of Greg Rose, MS, ATC into the KATS Hall of Fame!
