4 I would like to thank my family and colleagues who inspired and supported this project. This book is dedicated to them. This book is also dedicated to our military service members and their families who sacrifice so much in service to our nation. They deserve nothing less than the very best evidence-based injury prevention strategies and cutting edge health care for the musculoskeletal injuries and conditions that are commonly seen in this high-risk population. K.L.C. I am grateful for the support of my family, who made this work possible. I thank my mother who taught me kindness and inspired me to lead a life of caring for others. I thank the soldiers for whom I have been fortunate to be able to care and from whom I have learned much. B.D.O.
5 Foreword the soldier, above all other people, prays for peace, for he must suffer and bear the deepest wounds and scars of war. General Douglas MacArthur More than 2 million soldiers, sailors, airmen, and marines were engaged in the longest continuous conflict in America s history. We were at war for more than 13 years, with an astonishingly high survival rate and relatively low amputation rate. I had the honor to serve as the orthopedic advisor (consultant) to the US Army surgeon general for 8 years of this war and to serve three surgeon generals. It was during the performance of this responsibility that I came to know Dr. Brett Owens and Dr. Kenneth Cameron. Brett completed his sports medicine fellowship during my early tenure and was finishing his study at the Institute for Surgical Research on the epidemiology of combat injuries. His subsequent seminal publications have garnered more than 500 citations the most in all combat surgery literature and are directly responsible for bringing public and medical attention to the vast burden of musculoskeletal disability currently facing our warriors. Ken has served as the Director of Orthopaedic Research for the John A. Feagin Jr. Sports Medicine Fellowship at the United States Military Academy at West Point and is a fervent scientist investigating ways to optimize human performance. Dr. Owens and Dr. Cameron have produced a body of independent research directed at better understanding the nature of these injuries and how to prevent them. Together, they have examined battle, non-battle, and training-related injuries, and in this new text, they present the cumulative American military expertise acquired during the past 15 years in the treatment and prevention of disability. I am humbled and honored to introduce these scholars, who are respected and skilled clinicians, committed to best practices and prevention, and who are also world-renowned scientists in the field of sports- and combat-related trauma. In this text, they address the factors leading to high rates of morbidity and consider all aspects of the musculoskeletal system. They lead the students of military-related injuries on a tour of the body by system and region and then outline a systematic approach to prevention and mitigation of the impairments these patriots experience. I believe this text will inspire further investigation into the causes of and solutions to what represents the largest and longest-term burden facing the patriots who have served in contemporary volunteer military service. vii
6 viii Foreword The text is thoughtfully written by clinician-scientists with diverse perspectives surgeons, rehabilitation specialists, and operationally oriented clinicians. Although amputations have been perhaps, the most visible reminder of the human cost of recent conflicts, non-battle injuries, as well as the high-performance sports like joint injuries of the tactical athlete constitute even larger losses to the fighting forces. Additionally, and perhaps, a product of today s more sedentary youth, injuries during initial entry training are more common and may be completely preventable. The discussion regarding stress fractures and overuse syndromes highlights this epidemic and is directly relevant to civilian sports medicine providers. This fascinating text also tours the body, discussing gaps in treatment, prevention strategies, and types of impairments leading to losses of the fighting force. All contributing authors are specialty fellowship-trained practicing surgeons who have served in clinical practice, combat conditions, and academic centers, and who have broad expertise in their respective areas. Finally, with contributions that promise to be practical, as well as influential, in both policy development and data-driven research funding, the final section assimilates these combat subtractors into several strategies for prevention, mitigation, and management. National health policy is increasingly focused on the critical examination of population-based health and what appears to be the indefinite future of the all-volunteer fighting force. The concepts and observations presented herein are leading from the front to direct thoughts on military medicine. This text is a must read for anyone committed to understanding the significance of musculoskeletal injuries experienced by our military and for the thought leaders who will be responsible for preventing and mitigating the sacrifices made by our warriors in the defense of our nation.

7 Preface Musculoskeletal injuries and conditions are endemic in US military populations. Former US Army Surgeon General, James Peake, referred to the burden of musculoskeletal injuries in the military as a hidden epidemic in 2000 [4]. Today, as the US military is transitioning from more than a decade of war on two fronts in the Middle East, new data suggest that this epidemic is emerging from the shadows [1 3]. Significant combat wounds, as well as non-battle injuries during deployment, have contributed to long-term disability and decreased quality of life in our veterans. This is, in addition, to the already high rates of training and sports-related injuries commonly observed in the young and active military population. In this text, we have assembled a comprehensive panel of military and civilian clinicians and researchers with the primary objective of shedding some additional light on this hidden epidemic. Our goal was to produce an authoritative text on the epidemiology of musculoskeletal injuries and conditions typically seen in service members, utilizing the best data available to date. Clearly, some areas are still lacking in quality studies and supporting data and we have solicited expert opinion in these cases. We have provided some general chapters on combat, noncombat, and sports and physical training-related injuries, as well as an anatomic breakdown of injury patterns commonly observed in military populations. In the final section, we have provided an overview of how the public health model has been applied to study and address the injury epidemic in the military and we have provided a framework for developing and implementing effective injury prevention strategies within this unique high-risk population. Our ultimate hope is to generate dialogue, research, and effective interventions that can be implemented in real-world settings to help mitigate the impact of musculoskeletal injuries and conditions among those who have committed to selflessly serve our nation. ix
