 Podcast on the AMI with Coach Joe Hos

Check out episode 35 of the Coach Hos Podcast, where Joanna Goldin, PT, Head of Sales for dorsaVi and Dr. Mike St. George talk to Joe Hos, owner of Sports Rehab PA Performance Therapy & Training.


Here is the breakdown of the Podcast:

0-15 mins: Who DorsaVi is, how long they have been around and how Dr. Trent Nessler implemented research backed tests to be used with DorsaVi assessments. Joanna’s history and how she became involved with dorsaVI as well as her background as a physical therapist.

15-30 mins: Athletic Movement Index (AMI) Battery of tests takes 15-20 minutes. What patients are appropriate for the AMI testing, what tests are performed and at what stage in rehab they are appropriate. DorsaVI provides video analysis and a report printed out with the objective data. Different athletes and positions require different treatment programs. Current objective measures in the physical therapy profession are lacking efficiency. The profession needs to adapt and move forward with more advanced objective measures.

30-45 mins: The wearable sensors can be used for multiple clients/patients and even outside running. The method behind how the sensors are applied and the easy to apply system. dorsaVi can be used in multiple patient populations to analyze movement.

45-60 mins: How the system can be used for analyzing teams and illustrate the importance of athletes requiring a stronger foundation. The difficulty behind playing multiple sports and specialization early on is detrimental towards development of adolescents. dorsaVi can assess baselines throughout growth spurts and changes in body mass and height. dorsaVi is very portable, minimally cumbersome and easy to use anywhere. The report prints immediately. Physical therapy is slow to change and really needs to be proactive towards forward thinking.

60-70 mins: Final 3 questions for Joanna: Biggest obsession, what keeps her up at night and her success habits.

Why Did DorsaVi Create the AMI?

Why Did DorsaVi Create the AMI? On this blog, we have discussed: what the AMI is capable of, case studies and reviews from clients about this wearable sensor technology. However, we have yet to discuss how the AMI came to be created. Our Marketing & Sales team had the opportunity to sit down and talk with Dr. Trent Nessler, PT, MPT, DPT and the co-founder of the AMI to ask exactly "Why the AMI was built?" As a Physical Therapist, Doctor Trent Nessler was witnessing movement patterns detrimental to an athlete's movement, even after they had completed rehab. Interested in reducing this risk, he set about trying to find a way to better assess an athlete's recovery.  Watch the quick clip below to hear how Doctor Trent Nessler came to create the AMI: For more information on the AMI, check out some of our other blog posts:  Why Have These Tests Been Specifically Selected For the AMI Assessment?

Gareth Ziyambi and dorsaVi   DorsaVi had the opportunity to sit down with  Gareth Ziyambi,  Physiotherapist for UK Swimming and Diving and  the Clinic Director & Principal Physiotherapist at A2Z Elite Health & Performance in London, UK, for a fascinating discussion about his use of the dorsaVi wearable sensors from the Olympics to the Clinic. One aspect of the dorsaVi sensors that is hugely beneficial for clinicians and physiotherapists is its versatility. It can be used to assess football players, gymnasts and, in this instance, the Great British Olympic Diving Team.  Watch the short clip below  and learn how Gareth used the dorsaVi sensors with the divers. In this clip: Gareth discusses using the technology for the pre-season screening, repeating that process at key points through that season. Through the objective and easy-to-read data, Gareth was able to use it for performance markers. The reports also provided helpful return-to-play markers, when a diver injured themselves

Kinesiophobia and the AMI: How Can the AMI Help Reassure Patients?

-
Kinesiophobia and the AMI Previously on this blog, we have discussed the importance of the TSK-11 and patient-reported outcomes (PROM). In this blog post, three crucial questions were answered:  What is the TSK-11?  Why is this PROM so important in ACL Return to Play assessments? How does the TSK-11 complement dorsaVi’s AMI Assessment?   The post went on to outline the  symbiotic relationship shared between the TSK-11 and the AMI: if an athlete scores poorly on their TSK-11, they can be assessed under an AMI assessment. The AMI test results will then reflect whether an athlete is fearful of weight-bearing as the Single Leg tests can reveal apprehension in physically using their previously injured leg.  This is a crucial point, however, the AMI offers another point of reassurance in regards to an athlete and kinesiophobia: the ability for the athlete to see the results and movement improvement for themselves.    This is a point best articulated in the quick clip attached below with the
