  • Unit 3 – INJURY PREVENTION Lecture Notes Taping
    Exercise Science/Sports Medicine Unit 3 – INJURY PREVENTION Lecture Notes Taping Objective 2: Demonstrate theory and principles of prophylactic taping. A. Analyze the basic principles of prophylactic taping. Prophylactic taping is a preventive technique used for the protection, stabilization and care of athletic injuries. General Guidelines 1. Preparation a. The athletic trainer and athlete should be in a comfortable position. i. The athlete should be high enough so the athletic trainer doesn’t have to lean over. ii. Try to make the athlete comfortable but maintain the extremity in the correct position while it is being taped. b. Place taped body part away from mechanism of injury i. Ankle – place in 90° dorsi flexion plus slight eversion. c. Be sure the area is dry, clean, and free of body hair. i. The area does not always have to be shaved when using underwrap (Pre- wrap). ii. Underwrap helps to protect the skin but decreases the efficiency of the tape. d. Use some form of tape adherent (Spray) to ensure bonding of the tape to the skin. i. Cuts, blisters, and rashes should be covered with a clean non-stick pad prior to the use of adherent or tape. ii. If underwrap is used, only one layer should be applied over the tape adherent. e. In areas with potential for friction blisters or burns, apply a lubricated pad. i. Heel-and-Lace pad with Skin Lube ii. 2. Taping a. Select width of tape according to body part. b. Begin with anchors on top and bottom to provide a base for other strips to attach to.

Björn Kastenman Examiner: PhD. Ulf Stigh Alternative Materials for the Horseshoe 2014 DECLARATION This thesis is a presentation of my research work to the University of Skövde for the Bachelor Degree in Mechanical Engineering, in the School of Technology and Society. Throughout this thesis, contributions of other authors are identified by referencing clearly. Date of Submission: 16th December, 2014 Signature Laura Aragón Martín I Alternative Materials for the Horseshoe 2014 ACKNOWLEDMENTS I wish to thank my project supervisors PhD. Alexander Eklind and M.Sc. Björn Kastenman of the University of Skövde for their valuable help and constructive suggestions. I would also like to express my sincere gratitude for my friends and family, whose support, patience and understanding have helped make this thesis possible. Finally, I would like to thank the previous research on which this thesis has been based. II Alternative Materials for the Horseshoe 2014 ABSTRACT This thesis is a research-focused work on a study of alternative materials for horseshoes. Within this thesis the objectives and functions of a compliant horseshoe are identified, based on a literature study of the work of previous researches, and they are linked to the properties of material. After identifying these objectives, a number of methods are implemented with the aim of detecting the most suitable materials for horseshoes taking into account the properties linked with the objectives. In order to determine whether the selected material is suitable or not, a comparison with a traditional forged steel horseshoe is carried out.

  • PRIMUM NON NOCERE (First, Do No Harm) - Hippocrates (C
    PRIMUM NON NOCERE (First, do no harm) - Hippocrates (c. 460-377 BC) Two big myths Invention of the bit facilitated the domestication of the horse, six thousand years ago. Early bits were probably made out of plaited vines, followed by wood, antlers and bone. Metal bits of the Bronze Age were the forerunners of today’s stainless steel bits. The most ancient of bits are instantly recognizable for what they are and we don’t need an archeologist’s interpretation. The principle and mode of action is unaltered. One or more metal rods are inserted into a horse’s mouth and held in place by means of a bridle. A rein attached to each side of the bit is manipulated by the driver or rider (Fig.1). To this day, most horsemen believe that a bit controls a horse when, in reality, the bit is the most common cause of complete loss of control. Though horses have been bolting, bucking and rearing their way through history, this ‘control’ myth survives all evidence to the contrary. Fig. 1 Radiograph of a double bridle in situ, consisting of a bridoon bit, a curb bit and a chin chain. The long shanks with one set of reins attached to the bottom ring permit pressure from the curb and chain to be leveraged, applying a thumbscrew action on the mandible. At the level of compression, the mandible in cross- section is no bigger than a mid-section through a standard hen’s egg. (Fig 2) Fig 2. On the left, a transverse section through the mandible of a draft horse at the level of the bars of the mouth (the two knife- edges dorsally) on which the bit is brought into contact when a horse is ‘on the bit.’ The red beads represent the mandibular branch of the trigeminal (sensory) nerve.

  • Grazing Muzzles
    Grazing Muzzles At an MHCO Spring Clinc there was some interest in the grazing muzzles that I make for my horses. Below are directions for mini size muzzles and some suggested locations for materials that I have used. These muzzles can Be adapted for larger horses too and are especially good for fatter or foundered horses whose grass intake needs to Be limited. These muzzles allow lots of cool air to reach the horse's face and they can drink with them on. You can also make a totally anti-grazing muzzle, if needed, By not cutting the center hole. ____________________________________ You will need: Textaline Fabric. This is the mesh faBric used in fly masks and I have ordered it from the weB at: http://www.garysupholstery.com/textilene.html But it is availaBle at other sites as well. Do not use screen, it is not strong enough, won’t last long and may injure your horse. Other mesh faBrics that I have tried do not seem to wear well as the Textaline.
