One of the most important tools driving quality patient care and physician confidence is professional collaboration and medical research. Based on this simple premise, for five years the Medical Emergencies in Cycling and Medicine of Cycling courses continue to provide the top venue for health care professionals to collaborate and improve the care they provide to cycling athletes. Our expert faculty educate physicians and allied health professionals, help establish treatment norms and set standards of care for cycling athletes. The course targets the most encountered and highest impact practice gaps realized by physicians. Topics include: injuries, primary care, cardiology, physiology, nutrition, dermatology, women athletes, orthopedics, pulmonology, and issues related to performance enhancing drugs. The general course is preceded by a hands-on trauma training activity – Medical Emergencies in Cycling. In addition, there is a concurrent industry-neutral two-day Bike Fit University and hands-on workshop geared towards medical professionals.
