PROGRAM PURPOSE

This educational activity will further the understanding of the learner about sports medicine topics. We will cover musculoskeletal issues so as to improve the comfort zone in dealing with common issues in athletes as well as weekend warriors. We will review hot topics such as recognition, evaluation, and management of concussions and also how to make the sports physical a meaningful interaction. Medical professionals that attend these sessions will leave feeling comfortable recognizing and managing issues in young athletes and active adults. Along with the common conditions, we will also review some more complex "zebras" in the field of sports medicine..

  1. Stress fractures in athletes: Identifying low risk vs. high risk fracture
    • Analyze the causes behind this most common of overuse injuries and help identify common causes. Differentiate those fractures which are low vs. high risk
    • Describe the hallmark presentation of Jones fracture, tarsal navicular and proximal/anterior tibial stress fractures and femoral neck, and be aware of the implications of missing them.
  2. Spine Injuries in athletes: differentiating the workup and management in young athletes and adults
    • Determine a cost effective work-up algorithm for back pain in young athletes vs. skeletally immature
    • Determine the appropriate use of x-rays, MRI, bone scan and CTs.
  3. Ankle Sprains and foot, ankle/heel mimics
    • Recognize simple pediatric overuse injuries of the foot and ankle as timesavers for medical providers.
  4. A systematic approach to assessment of sports shoulder injuries
    • Explain a simple algorithm for the cost-effective work-up of shoulder injuries such as dislocation, separation, impingement and neurologic origin.
    • Differentiate and manage dislocated shoulder vs. separated shoulder.
  5. Initial evaluation and management of sports concussions
    • Analyze the current approach to ward timely diagnosis and initial management of sports related concussion
    • Be aware of factors that predispose athletes to prolonged recovery from sports concussion.
  6. Hand, finger, wrist injuries in athletes (including splinting vs. surgical approach)
    • Discuss A systematic approach to assessment of hand, finger, wrist, injuriesbe aware of those conditions appropriately treated in primary care vs. those less common conditions that require surgical referralDescribe the differences in "jammed finger" injuries from volar plate injury (ligament tear), mallet finger, Jersey finger, and fracture.
  7. Concussion part II - post concussion syndrome, complications, research
    • Review the current research in concussion evaluation and management
    • Be are comfortable with the recognition and treatment options of post-concussion syndrome and some of the other complications of this injury
  8. The pre-participation sports physical: Making it a worthwhile exercise for parents, athletes, and medical personnel
    • Discuss a positive approach to the pre-participation sports physical in gathering valuable medical information, finding the rare "at risk" athlete and doing it in a timely interaction
    • Explain the appropriate work-up of infectious mono and safe return to play.
  9. Exercise induced asthma and vocal cord dysfunction in the approach to athletes with shortness of breath or chronic fatigue
    • Analyze the work-up and differential diagnosis for EIA VCD or other conditions that present with shortness of breath or fatigue
    • Describe the differential diagnosis of shortness of breath in athletes vs. chronic fatigue
  10. The evaluation and management of sports knee injuries in young athletes and adults
    • Differentiate between injuries that can be treated in primary care vs. those where we need to discuss surgical intervention
    • Be aware of and comfortable with recognizing types of knee injuries that occur in active young people and adults

PORTS OF CALL

Rome (Civitavecchia), Italy

Your Mediterranean voyage commences from Civitavecchia, the port for Rome, but the true overture to your adventure begins in the heart of the Eternal City itself. As dedicated professionals, you spend your days in structured, high-stakes environments. Rome offers the perfect antidote: a city where millennia of history, art, and culture converge in a vibrant, unscripted symphony of life. We strongly encourage you to arrive one or two days prior to embarkation, allowing you to decompress, acclimate to the time zone, and immerse yourself in a world far removed from your daily practice before your onboard conferences begin.

**Arriving and Settling In**

Upon landing at Rome’s Fiumicino Airport (FCO), you have several efficient options to reach the city center. The Leonardo Express train provides a direct, 32-minute journey to Termini Station, the city's main transport hub. Alternatively, licensed white city taxis offer a fixed fare to destinations within the Aurelian Walls. Securing a hotel in a central, walkable neighborhood like the area around the Pantheon, Piazza Navona, or the charmingly bohemian Trastevere will place the city’s treasures at your doorstep.

**A Suggested 48-Hour Roman Prelude**

**Day 1: Imperial Grandeur and the Art of Living**

Begin your first day by stepping back two thousand years. Pre-booked tickets are essential to bypass the long queues at the **Colosseum**, the iconic amphitheater that once hosted gladiatorial contests and public spectacles. From there, walk over to the **Roman Forum** and **Palatine Hill**, the sprawling nerve center of the ancient empire. Standing amidst these evocative ruins, you can almost hear the echoes of senators debating and chariots rattling on stone roads. It’s a powerful, humbling experience that puts the passage of time into perspective.

For lunch, escape the crowds and wander into the nearby Monti district, a fashionable neighborhood of artisans and ivy-clad buildings, to find a traditional trattoria for a plate of *cacio e pepe*. In the afternoon, embrace the Italian concept of *la dolce vita* (the sweet life). Cross the Tiber River into **Trastevere**, a picturesque labyrinth of cobblestone streets and ochre-colored buildings. Spend hours simply wandering, discovering hidden courtyards, boutique shops, and lively piazzas. As evening descends, find an outdoor table for an *aperitivo*—a pre-dinner drink with snacks—and watch the world go by. This is Rome at its most authentic and relaxing.

**Day 2: Divine Art and Baroque Splendor**

Dedicate your morning to the world’s smallest sovereign state, **Vatican City**. Again, pre-booking is non-negotiable. The **Vatican Museums** house one of the greatest art collections on earth, a journey through centuries of human creativity that culminates in the breathtaking **Sistine Chapel**. Seeing Michelangelo’s ceiling and *The Last Judgment* in person is a profound cultural moment. Afterward, step into the immense and awe-inspiring **St. Peter's Basilica**, a masterpiece of Renaissance architecture.

In the afternoon, enjoy a more leisurely exploration of Rome’s historic center. Visit the **Pantheon**, an architectural marvel with its staggering unsupported dome and oculus open to the heavens. From there, it’s a short stroll to **Piazza Navona**, a stunning showcase of Baroque art and architecture, dominated by Bernini’s Fountain of the Four Rivers. No pre-cruise stay is complete without a visit to the **Trevi Fountain**. Toss a coin over your shoulder to ensure your return to Rome, and perhaps indulge in a scoop of artisanal gelato from a nearby shop. This is the perfect, relaxed conclusion to your city immersion.

**The Journey to Your Ship**

On embarkation day, you can travel from Rome to the port of Civitavecchia with ease. A direct train from Termini Station is an efficient and scenic option, or you can arrange for a pre-booked private transfer for ultimate convenience. By arriving early, you transform this travel day from a stressful rush into a calm, simple transition from your Roman holiday to your Mediterranean cruise. You’ll board your ship not with the fatigue of a transatlantic flight, but with the enrichment of a city that has captivated travelers for centuries.

Naples, Italy

Naples is less a polished tourist destination and more a vibrant, chaotic, and profoundly authentic slice of Southern Italy. As a port of call, it’s a world-class launchpad to some of history’s most significant sites and Europe’s most breathtaking coastlines. Your challenge isn't finding something to do; it's accepting you can't possibly do it all in one day.

For most, the primary draw lies just outside the city: the astonishing ruins of Pompeii. Buried by Vesuvius in A.D. 79, this ancient city offers an unparalleled window into Roman life. We strongly recommend a guided tour here; the site is vast, and an expert can bring the silent stones of its villas, temples, and brothels to life. For a more intimate and often better-preserved alternative, consider nearby Herculaneum, which was entombed in mud rather than ash, preserving incredible details like wooden beams and mosaics.

If you prefer legendary beauty to ancient history, the Bay of Naples delivers. A hydrofoil can whisk you across the water to the glamorous Isle of Capri, famed for its dramatic Faraglioni rocks, chic boutiques, and the ethereal Blue Grotto (weather permitting). Alternatively, a drive along the coast brings you to Sorrento, a charming town perched on cliffs with stunning views and a more relaxed atmosphere, perfect for sipping limoncello and soaking in the scenery.

Should you choose to dive into Naples itself, be prepared for an intense and rewarding experience. The city’s historic center is a UNESCO World Heritage site, a labyrinth of narrow streets, hidden courtyards, and baroque churches. The National Archaeological Museum is an absolute must, housing the priceless mosaics, frescoes, and artifacts recovered from Pompeii and Herculaneum. And, of course, there is the pizza. This is its birthplace, and enjoying an authentic Neapolitan pizza is not just a meal, but a cultural imperative. Naples is gritty, loud, and utterly unforgettable—a port that rewards the curious traveler with an experience of raw, unfiltered Italy.

At Sea - Cruising

Barcelona, Spain

Barcelona greets you with a vibrant energy, a city where the fantastical architecture of Catalan Modernisme coexists with the shadows of a deep Gothic past. Your day here is a study in captivating contrasts. The undeniable centerpiece is Antoni Gaudí's magnum opus, La Sagrada Familia. This basilica, a century-and-a-half in the making, is a breathtaking testament to faith and architectural genius that must be experienced from within to be truly understood. For more of Gaudí's dream-like vision, a stroll along the elegant Passeig de Gràcia reveals Casa Batlló, a residence seemingly sculpted from bone and mosaic.

Alternatively, lose yourself in the Barri Gòtic (Gothic Quarter), a medieval labyrinth of narrow cobblestone streets opening onto sunlit plazas. Here, the serene Cathedral of Barcelona offers a tranquil counterpoint to Gaudí's exuberance. This historic heart of the city is also a hub for unique boutiques and artisan shops. For a sensory immersion into local life, navigate the famed Las Ramblas to the Mercat de la Boqueria, a kaleidoscope of fresh produce, cured meats, and bustling food stalls.

Art aficionados can delve into the formative years of a master at the Museu Picasso, housed in a series of medieval palaces. No visit is complete without indulging in the city's culinary scene. Duck into a neighborhood bar for authentic tapas and a glass of cava, savoring the flavors that define Catalan culture. While one day is merely an introduction, it’s enough to be thoroughly enchanted by Barcelona's artistic soul and zest for life.

Palma De Mallorca, Spain

Palma de Mallorca is a pleasant surprise for many, offering a level of urban sophistication and history that far exceeds the typical Mediterranean island port. This is a genuinely rewarding stop, a compact and elegant city that beautifully balances grandeur with a relaxed seaside pace.

The city's soul is the magnificent Catedral-Basílica de Santa María, 'La Seu.' This Gothic masterpiece dominates the waterfront, but its true marvel lies within: a modernist interior intervention by Antoni Gaudí, whose wrought-iron canopy hangs like a crown jewel over the altar. Its sheer scale and the way light filters through its massive rose window are truly breathtaking.

From the cathedral, lose yourself in the labyrinthine lanes of the Casco Antiguo (Old Town). Here, sandstone buildings hide tranquil courtyards, and the former maritime exchange, La Llotja, stands as a testament to the city's prosperous trading past. It’s a perfect area for aimless wandering, discovering small boutiques and authentic cafes.

For a commanding view of the city and the sweeping bay, a short taxi ride to the Castell de Bellver is well worth the effort. It’s one of Europe’s few circular castles, offering a unique perspective both architecturally and geographically. While the island's most famous beaches require more time than a port day allows, the city itself provides ample reward. Duck into a bakery for a spiral-shaped *ensaimada*, the classic Mallorcan pastry, or find a shaded plaza for a glass of local wine. The city is easily walkable, though the main cruise terminal is a fair distance from the center, making a shuttle or taxi a practical first step.

Provence (Marseille), France

Marseille is not a polished museum piece; it is France’s oldest and second-largest city, a vibrant, working port with a palpable energy and a history stretching back 2,600 years. Its character is a compelling mix of grit and grandeur, offering a genuine slice of Mediterranean life. The natural starting point is the Vieux Port (Old Port), a bustling U-shaped harbor where fishing boats bob alongside yachts. Here, the daily fish market is a spectacle of local life, and the surrounding quays are lined with cafés perfect for observing the city in motion.

For the definitive view, make the journey up to the Basilique Notre-Dame de la Garde. This Romano-Byzantine basilica, affectionately called "La Bonne Mère" (The Good Mother), offers breathtaking 360-degree panoramas of the city, the sea, and the surrounding islands. We recommend taking the tourist train or a taxi for the steep ascent to conserve time and energy. Back at sea level, lose yourself in Le Panier, the city's oldest quarter. Its maze of narrow, winding streets, ochre-colored buildings, and artisan workshops feels a world away from the grand 19th-century boulevards elsewhere.

Marseille also serves as the essential gateway to the broader Provence region. A popular day excursion leads to the elegant city of Aix-en-Provence, the refined counterpoint to Marseille's urban dynamism, known for its fountains, markets, and ties to the artist Cézanne. Alternatively, for a stunning natural escape, head to the charming fishing village of Cassis, the launching point for boat tours into the Calanques National Park—a series of dramatic limestone fjords with brilliant turquoise water. Whether you immerse yourself in the city's layered history or venture into the Provençal countryside, Marseille offers a rich and authentic experience.

La Spezia, Italy

An overnight stay in La Spezia transforms it from a simple gateway into a strategic and authentic Ligurian base camp. This extended time removes the usual pressure of a port day, allowing for a thoughtful, two-part exploration of two of Italy’s most celebrated regions: Tuscany and the Ligurian Riviera.

On your first day, consider an immersive journey into the heart of the Renaissance. Florence is readily accessible via a direct train (approx. 2-2.5 hours) from La Spezia Centrale. This isn't a rushed highlights tour; it's a full day to engage with the city. Pre-book tickets to see Michelangelo’s David at the Accademia and the masterpieces of the Uffizi Gallery. With time on your side, you can wander across the Ponte Vecchio, climb Giotto's Bell Tower for panoramic views, and still have time for a leisurely lunch. The real luxury is the evening; enjoy an authentic Florentine dinner before catching a late train back, experiencing the city's magic after the day-trippers have departed. Alternatively, for a more focused day, the iconic sights of Pisa—the Leaning Tower, Cathedral, and Baptistery in the Piazza dei Miracoli—are just an hour away by train, leaving ample time to also explore the charming walled city of Lucca nearby.

Returning to La Spezia for the evening offers a wonderful contrast. This is your chance to live like a local. Take part in the evening *passeggiata* (stroll) along the palm-lined harbor, Passeggiata Costantino Morin. Find a small bar for an *aperitivo* and then seek out a trattoria for a true Ligurian dinner. This is the home of pesto, so trying fresh trofie pasta with the fragrant, basil-rich sauce is essential. Also look for fresh seafood, or regional specialties like *testaroli* pancakes or savory vegetable pies.

For your second day, the dramatic coastline of the Cinque Terre awaits. A short train ride from La Spezia Centrale is the most efficient way to hop between the five villages. Start in Riomaggiore, then perhaps hike a portion of the scenic trail or continue by train to Manarola for its classic postcard view. Vernazza’s harbor is a perfect lunch spot, while Monterosso al Mare offers the only significant stretch of beach. For a different perspective, a ferry from La Spezia’s harbor provides breathtaking views of the villages clinging to the cliffs. For those seeking similar beauty with fewer crowds, we recommend the ferry to Portovenere. This stunning village, with its Gothic church perched on a rocky headland and the colorful Doria Castle above, is a UNESCO site alongside the Cinque Terre but often feels more intimate.

Before departing, take time to appreciate La Spezia itself. The daily morning market in Piazza Cavour is a vibrant slice of local life, and the pedestrianized Via del Prione offers pleasant shopping. The Castello di San Giorgio, high above the city, provides a final, sweeping view of the Gulf of Poets—a fitting end to a rich, two-day immersion in the best of Italy.

Why Protect your Trip?

Whether you’re planning your next trip or you recently booked one, travel insurance can help smooth over many unexpected travel glitches—while putting your mind at ease, knowing you’re off the hook for covered expenses that could arise from them.

Allianz Travel Insurance plans can provide you benefits and professional support when a covered situation comes up before or during your trip. The following examples may qualify for benefits:

  • Cancelling your trip after unexpectedly becoming too sick to travel
  • Taking care of a sick or injured traveling companion
  • Having to end your trip early due to a family emergency
  • Dealing with a flight delay or cancellation
  • Needing to buy personal items if your luggage is lost or stolen
  • Missing your cruise departure after a covered flight delay

You also can contact our travel protection partner Allianz Global Assistance’s 24/7, award-winning customer service for on-the-go assistance with issues like a medical emergency, replacing your lost passport, or making reservations around the world. To be eligible for a time-sensitive waiver of pre-existing medical condition exclusions, purchase your travel insurance plan within 14 days of initial trip deposit (other purchase requirements and conditions apply). Specific plan benefits may vary. Please review your plan details for more information.

What Can Travel Insurance Help Protect?

Allianz Travel Insurance plans can protect you before and during your trip—keeping you, your loved ones, and your travel budget safer. Benefits vary by plan, and these are brief descriptions. Please read your plan documents for details.

TRIP CANCELLATION

Reimburses your prepaid, non-refundable travel expenses if you need to cancel your trip due to a covered reason, such as you, a family member, or traveling companion experiencing a covered illness or injury. Examples include:

  • A doctor says you or a traveling companion is too sick to fly
  • Your parent or child requires hospitalization
  • You need to attend the birth of a family member’s child
  • You have a traffic accident (not breakdown) on the way to the airport
  • A storm shuts down your airport for 24 hours or more

TRIP INTERRUPTION

Reimburses your unused, non-refundable travel expenses and increased transportation costs during your trip if you have to return home early due to a covered reason, for instance when a family member has a qualifying medical emergency and needs your care. Examples include:

  • You have a covered illness or injury and a doctor says you must return home
  • A family member has a qualifying injury and needs your care
  • A covered emergency, like a fire or flood, makes your home uninhabitable

TRAVEL DELAY

If you have a covered delay while traveling, travel insurance can reimburse you for meals, accommodations, and transportation expenses when your trip is delayed for a minimum number of consecutive hours for a covered reason. Minimum number of hours varies by plan.

EMERGENCY MEDICAL AND DENTAL CARE

Reimburses your expenses related to covered medical and dental emergencies* that might occur on your trip. This benefit can be especially helpful if you have a covered emergency outside the United States, as most health insurance policies won’t cover you outside the country. Examples include:

  • You slip and break your ankle while sightseeing
  • You get food poisoning while sampling the local cuisine
  • You lose a filling and need immediate dental treatment*

*A sublimit and maximum apply for this benefit. Check your plan documents for details.

EMERGENCY MEDICAL TRANSPORTATION

Arranges and pays for medically necessary transportation following a covered injury or illness to the nearest appropriate medical facility to receive care and get you home after treatment.

BAGGAGE LOSS, DAMAGE, or THEFT

Reimburses the replacement of your lost, damaged, or stolen luggage and personal items while traveling.

BAGGAGE DELAY

Reimburses essential items purchased during your trip if your baggage is delayed for a minimum number of hours (varies by plan).

CHANGE FEE

Reimburses fees if you need to change your flight itinerary due to a covered reason.

24-HOUR ASSISTANCE

Provides around-the-clock support during your trip. Allianz Global Assistance’s staff of multilingual problem solvers can help you with medical, legal, and travel-related emergencies whenever they happen. Medical assistance may include, but is not limited to:

  • Medical triage with referrals to local prescreened medical providers
  • Ongoing medical monitoring
  • Payment guarantee
  • Emergency medical transportation

Additional services for travel-related emergencies can help with:

  • Missed connecting flights
  • Lost/stolen travel documents
  • Pre-trip information
