Pediatric Sports Injuries You Can't Miss

This CME program on pediatric sports injuries you can’t miss equips clinicians with a practical, high-yield framework for recognizing time-sensitive and commonly overlooked injuries in the active child and adolescent. Participants will review injury patterns unique to the growing athlete, with emphasis on physeal injuries, stress-related pathology, and conditions that may present subtly yet carry significant long-term consequences if missed. Learners will also examine sport-specific mechanisms, red-flag clinical findings, and appropriate use of imaging to differentiate benign overuse injuries from those requiring urgent intervention. By integrating developmental anatomy with injury biomechanics and return-to-play decision-making, this program empowers clinicians to identify critical pediatric sports injuries early and deliver safe, evidence-based, patient-centered care.
