Confusion, chaos, locked gates, AT not present, no AED. “[Administrators] are all about accountability for students, but why aren’t the adults in charge facing repercussions?” https://t.co/zfDTbNANNK

Just a public announcement... if the Olympic Gold Medal match can pause for a cooling/hydration break due to heat so can your high schoolers.

Noah Lyles collapsed after running the 200-meter dash even though he knew he had Covid. That shouldn't have happened says bioethicist @ArthurCaplan in a First Opinion for @statnews https://t.co/8TijDcWZbp

[Christy Eason @CM_Eason]

The @CDCgov does not distinguish EHS & classic heat stroke. Intense physical activity is the causative factor in EHS so a patient will most likely be sweating. Let’s stop sharing s/s of classic heat stroke when warning about dangers of EHS. PLEASE!!

[Korey Stringer Institute @K_S_Institute]

If you suspect Exertional Heat Stroke, the appropriate and most effective treatment is immediate whole body cold water immersion. Remember - cool first, transport second!

Connor McDavid says he hasn’t received the $1million he won at the skills competition and when he does, he wants to take care of the trainers in Edmonton.

Dick was a football player personified. He played the game the way it’s supposed to be played. He will be missed by all the Chicago Bear family. RIP my friend!

Adults-parents and coaches-we must be smarter than this when it comes to our kids. Educate yourself about the 3 main causes of sudden death in high school athletes and what you can do to prevent/treat when symptoms START - instead of responding to collapse #BEHIP #EHS #SCA #TBI

Reports that multiple Ohio high school XC teams have pulled from Buckeye Running Sunset Invitational (Morrow) this evening. Has no immediate medical coverage from AT or EMT.

Teams told there's a fire station a mile down the road if emergency response is needed. #SaferSidelines

Other considerations:

1. Rule out stress fracture

2. Temporarily reduce or eliminate running (no painful running).

3. Cross-train to allow bone repair.

4. Strengthen the entire leg.

5. Consider insoles or new shoes.

6. Gradual return to pain-free running.

Excellent question for all high school administrators/school boards: "What is a life worth? Is it worth finding money in the budget for athletic trainers?"

[At Your Own Risk @aSaferApproach]

Would you let your child swim in a pool without a lifeguard? Parents/guardians does your child have access to appropriate medical care? ATHLETIC TRAINERS SAVE LIVES by providing medical care and supervision during games and practices. ASK QUESTIONS. #ASaferApproach #AT4ALL

[Chad Asplund @chadasplund]

Parents, athletes please lobby your school board to ensure that athletic trainers are hired and available at your schools - it can work!

You’re shocked seeing this because it happened on national TV, when you didn’t expect it.

But what if I told you it happened on sidelines across America at the high school level five times this summer that an athlete collapsed? #athletesATrisk
