14.01.2022 OPPORTUNITY TO PROVIDE RESEARCH INPUT - Exercise Screening for Young People Researchers from The University of Western Australia in collaborations with Exercise & Sports Science Australia (ESSA), Sport Medicine Australia and Fitness Australia are currently seeking feedback on a new Pre-Exercise Screening System for Young People (PSS-YP). There currently exist a number of pre-exercise screening tools, notably the Australian Adult Pre-Exercise Screening System (APSS), dev...eloped to promote quality control, consistency of practise and mitigate risks across the exercise industry. However, applying the APSS tool to the younger population is inadequate due to the significant differences in physiology, growth and development. This drove the design of the PSS-YP from industry bodies. And your feedback will enable tool refinement before it is released in the exercise industry and contribute to filling a gap in exercise safety, harm minimisation and industry impact.
