The subjects will include members of the community over the age of 65 and will be assigned to one of three groups \u2013 standing exercise, seated exercise, or the control group. The data collected will include: postural sway and a confidence survey related to fall risk. The hypothesis is that one or both of the exercise programs will have increase confidence in postural stability and improve overall balance in the aging\/geriatric population, thus decreasing fall risk. Since many elderly individuals are unable to stand for an extended period of time, it is important to study the effectiveness of seated exercise programs compared to the more traditional standing exercise programs. Researching different types of fall prevention programs will add to the current research on fall prevention. With more information about fall prevention in the aging\/elderly population, additional methods will be discovered to prolong a higher quality of life due to a decrease in injuries caused by falls.<\/div>\n<div><strong>Amber DeWitt, Michael Hovde, Allison Kanaman, Taylor Weuve &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.uwsp.edu\/peat\"><strong>School of Physical Education &amp; Athletic Training<\/strong><br \/>\n<\/a>&#8220;<\/strong>The Correlation Between FMS Scores and Athletic Injuries in Collegiate Athletes&#8221;<\/div>\n<figure id=\"attachment_5581\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.uwsp.edu\/cps\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/04\/20150422postersat1b.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-5581\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.uwsp.edu\/cps\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/04\/20150422postersat1b.jpg\" alt=\"20150422postersat1b\" width=\"579\" height=\"386\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.uwsp.edu\/cps\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/04\/20150422postersat1b.jpg 680w, https:\/\/blog.uwsp.edu\/cps\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/04\/20150422postersat1b-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 579px) 100vw, 579px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Allison Kanaman, Taylor Weuve, Michael Hovde and Amber DeWitt<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<div>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/C-zTAaHPujc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<div>\n<p><strong>Project Abstract: <\/strong>The purpose of our study is to determine if there is a correlation between a Functional Movement Screen (FMS) score and athletic injury occurrence. FMS is a ranking and grading system used to identify a participant\u2019s ability to complete a series of seven functional movement patterns. Participants FMS scores will be determined through the utilization of a FMS screening prior the beginning of their collegiate athletic season. Upon completion of the athletic season, statistical analysis will be completed to determine if there is a correlation between a participant\u2019s FMS score and injury incidence. If the results show a positive correlation between FMS scores and injury occurrence, at-risk individuals can be identified and a preventative program will be implemented to decrease injury prevalence. This research will be beneficial in athletics by identifying and preventing injury risk and decreasing time loss due to injury in all levels of sports.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Athletic training students from the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point are shared research findings during the 12th annual Posters in the Rotunda event Wednesday, April 22, at the State Capitol in Madison.
