    Summary: From basic eye care services to visual performance training, this evidence-based resource explores a range of sports vision services, including assessment and treatment procedures, outcome expectations, and applications to a variety of sports. Optometrists, ophthalmologists, and sports medicine practitioners will find a thorough review and discussion of the role of vision care in an athlete's performance, as well as practical recommendations for applying current research findings to clinical practice. Contains practical, clinically oriented chapters on visual assessment, prescribing, and ocular injuries in athletes. Takes a task analysis approach allowing the reader to develop solid reasoning skills and evaluate information needed for clinical practice. Includes a new chapter on Assessment and Management of Sports-Related Concussion. Features visual aids throughout including photographs, tables, and boxes to help clarify and visualize important concepts. Addresses sports vision training approaches and updated digital options reflecting the collaboration between athletic trainers, optometrists, and ophthalmologists in helping optimize vision in athletes.

    The effect of single therapeutic doses of strophanthin (0.25--0.4 mg) and atropine (0.75--1,0 mg) on cardiac contraction was studied in 39 patients with acute myocardial infarction and in 12 subjects with no signs of organic heart affection by recording the electrical potentials of the heart conduction system. The indicated dose of strophanthin caused changes in the intervals of the electrogram neither in individuals who did not have myocardial infarction nor in patients with acute myocardial infarction, including those with myocardial infarction complicated by atrioventricular and intraventricular block. Atropine improved atrioventricular conduction by shortening the PH interval in patients with myocardial infarction complicated by I--II grade atrioventricular block and had no marked effect on the spread of excitation impulses along the atrioventricular node in higher grades of atrioventricular block. Atropin shortened the PH interval slightly in individuals without myocardial infarction and in patients with uncomplicated myocardial infarction, but did not have an effect on intraventricular conduction.
