You are here > Injury prevention OOS conditions What are OOS conditions? Injury prevention ... OOS condition resources Definition Occupational Overuse Syndromes (OOS) is an umbrella term. It covers a range of conditions which are characterised by pain and/or other sensations in muscles, tendons, nerves, soft tissues and joints. Symptoms such as pain, discomfort, and muscle weakness may continue even when initial clinical signs such as swelling or bruising have diminished. The conditions may be caused, or are significantly contributed to, by work factors. These include prolonged muscle tension, repetitive actions, forceful movements and sustained or constrained postures, which exceed the usual ability of the body to recover rapidly. (See Causes of OOS conditions Other medical conditions causing the same or similar symptoms are excluded from this definition (eg, some rheumatological conditions, prolonged inactivity, or disuse of muscles). OOS conditions can be classified into three groups: localised inflammations; compression syndromes and pain syndromes. Localised inflammations Compression syndromes Pain syndromes Trigger finger Tenosynovitis Epicondylitis Rotator cuff syndrome Bursitis Cervicothoracic dysfunction Postural syndromes Muscle strain Carpal tunnel syndrome Thoracic outlet syndrome Ulnar nerve compression Radial nerve compression Chronic pain syndrome Myofascial syndromes Fibromyalgia Regional pain syndrome Complex regional pain syndrome (Reflex sympathetic dystrophy) Explanatory notes OOS conditions are a complex problem that has many causes. The number of possible contributing factors is large, with much potential for interaction. Work organisation factors (such as excessive workload), psycho-social factors (both in and outside of work) and individual characteristics are known to increase the risk of developing OOS conditions. These all have to be taken into account when managing OOS conditions.

SPORTS MEDICINE AND MUSCULOSKELETAL DISORDERS Athletics and Sports Training Preventive Care Neuropathophysiology and Mechanisms of Injury Clinical thermography has been shown to be useful as a diagnostic tool in the differential diagnosis of neuromusculoskeletal injuries and their prognosis for return to participation and/or competition. It has a specific and valuable place in sports medicine. Thermography can predict how long certain abnormalities will be present and determine whether a certain symptom complex or injury will have a short life or a longer than predicted duration. It is important to know whether a player will quickly respond to treatments and will be able to play soon, or whether his or her injury is likely to be a prolonged one. Should this athlete be counted on now, in the near future, or will the team best be served by a replacement until he or she properly and completely recuperates? Prior to or right at the appearance of symptoms, thermography can help in predicting the neurological and vascular changes in any given area. That allows the prevention of a much severe injury.

SPPM~Society for Pain Practice Management IS IT PAIN OF SYMPATHETIC ORIGIN? UPDATE ON RSD AND SMP BY Bernard M. Abrams, M.D. The detection of reflex sympathetic dystrophy is extremely important in the care and well being of patients who manifest these pain syndromes, because of the possibility of early intervention and prevention of difficult and debilitating complications. There is a school of thought that reflex sympathetic dystrophy is a dubious entity- (1) This holds that, "RSD is not a syndrome; RSD is a phenomenology. RSD phenomenology: a) Can be seen in multiple medical disorders (vascular, inflammatory, neurological, etc.), in other words RSD imitators. b) Can occur as a product of mere immobilization in the context of significant pain, avoidance behavior, and at times psychiatric disorders, c) Can be man made as part of a factitious disorder with either "internal" (psychological) secondary gains (Munchausen's g ' s (malinger), or syndrome, etc-), or "external" (financial, drug related, etc.,) secondary gain d) Can he seen as part of a complex set of neuropathogenic phenomena occurring in the context of nerve injury or even it's absence.
