Abstract:
When addressing the politics of sports medicine, it is often helpful to obtain the advice of people who work in the trenches and who have experiences that can be of benefit to clinicians in the field or who are contemplating going into the field. The goal of this project was to obtain advice from physicians who have dealt with these political issues. It is hoped that their insights will prove helpful for physicians and others who are involved in the care of athletes, regardless of the athlete's level of the play.

Light to moderate physical activity initiates a series of interconnected responses in the body. The heart rate modestly increases in anticipation of the workout, followed by widespread vasodilation as oxygen consumption by skeletal muscles increases. This results in decreased peripheral resistance, increased capillary blood flow, and accelerated...
