Hiểu biết về giải phẫu học, sinh lý học, và sự khác biệt tâm lý giữa các vận động viên lớn tuổi hơn và lão hóa giúp trẻ | Orthopaedic Care of the Aging Athlete Andrew L. Chen MD Simon C. Mears MD PhD and Richard J. Hawkins MD Abstract Increasing numbers of middle-aged and older adults participate in sports and athletes wish to remain active as they age. Understanding the anatomic physiologic and psychosocial differences between older and younger athletes can help aging athletes maintain function. Athletic capacity may be sustained well into advanced age and many of the physiologic consequences of aging may be mitigated or reversed by regular exercise. Most injuries in older athletes are chronic and overuse injuries that result in diminished flexibility and endurance. In addition many aging athletes have medical and musculoskeletal problems that mandate tailoring athletic activity to the patient s general health and functional requirements.
