Sports Physicals for Young Athletes | Charting Pediatrics Podcast

Before the Friday night lights and before the season even begins, there’s one appointment that can determine athletic eligibility: the pre-participation sports physical. For pediatricians, it’s often treated like a checkbox but in reality, it’s a powerful clinical moment. Sometimes it is the one chance to catch something that can change a life. In this episode, we explore how to turn the pre-participation physical from paperwork into prevention. We’ll break down what really matters in the sports physical, what red flags to watch for and how to use this visit to protect young athletes and support families. Kristina Wilson, MD, and Nate Howel, MD, join us for this episode. Dr. Wilson is the Medical Director of the Sports Medicine Center at Children’s Hospital Colorado and an Associate Professor at the University of Colorado School of Medicine. Dr. Howell specializes in primary care sports medicine and is also an Assistant Professor. Some highlights from this episode include: -Current guidelines and recommendations for the sports pre-participation physical -Why history matters during this exam -How to handle the same day “I need this form signed now” visit -How to best conduct this during a routine checkup For more information on Charting Pediatrics go to: https://www.childrenscolorado.org/hea...
