For this third edition of Sports Medicine: Study Guide and Review for Boards, the book follows the sports medicine board exam content outline in order to cover all topics testable on the exam. The length of each chapter is designed according to how much that topic is weighted on the exam. The book uses an easy-to-read outline format as well as the reference lists at the end of each chapter, which can be used for more in-depth study of the topics. The book follows three primary sections: (I) General Topics, (II) Health Promotion and Injury Prevention, and (III) Diagnosis and Treatment of Sports Injuries and Conditions. The third section is divided into the following four subsections: (1) Musculoskeletal Injuries and Conditions, (2) Medical, Neurological, and Psychological Conditions, (3) Special Populations, (4) Hot Topics in Sports Medicine. A new chapter is included to the hot topics subsection on exercise as medicine, to supplement existing chapters on sports ultrasound and regenerative medicine. A new practice test with over 260 questions covering the breadth of sports medicine is included. For this third edition, rationales have been added with detailed explanations of why one answer is correct, and the others are not. This is a great addition for the reader who is studying for the board exam as well as anyone wanting to test their knowledge of sports medicine. The book is meant to be used as a study guide for primary care sports medicine physicians (family medicine, emergency medicine, internal medicine, pediatrics, and physical medicine and rehabilitation) and orthopedic sports medicine physicians preparing to take the sports medicine subspecialty examination for initial certification or recertification. It also can serve as a sports medicine reference for other medical professionals such as athletic trainers, physical therapists, chiropractors, advanced practice providers, physicians in training (i.e., interns, residents, and fellows), and other physicians interested in sports medicine"--
