Περίληψη: Evidence suggests that athletic trainers are not always comfortable performing emergency medical skills, but it is unclear if state regulatory language impacts their comfort or perceived ability to provide care in medical emergencies. Using a concurrent mixed-methods approach, athletic trainers were asked to review regulatory language and indicate if they would be allowed to perform specific emergency skills in different employment settings. Results indicate that athletic trainers identify barriers to performing emergency medical skills in state practice language, including supervising physician oversite and narrow definitions of patient populations. Our results provide insight specific to the potential impact of regulatory language on clinical practice. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
