Description
An account of the resource
OBJECTIVE: To describe the epidemiology of non-fatal recreational injuries among older adults treated in United States emergency departments including national estimates of the number of injuries, types of recreational activities, and diagnoses. METHODS: Injury data were provided by the National Electronic Injury Surveillance System-All Injury Program (NEISS-AIP), a nationally representative subsample of 66 out of 100 NEISS hospitals. Potential cases were identified using the NEISS-AIP definition of a sport and recreation injury. The authors then reviewed the two line narrative to identify injuries related to participation in a sport or recreational activity among men and women more than 64 years old. RESULTS: In 2001, an estimated 62 164 (95% confidence interval 35 570 to 88 758) persons \textgreater/=65 years old were treated in emergency departments for injuries sustained while participating in sport or recreational activities. The overall injury rate was 177.3/100 000 population with higher rates for men (242.5/100 000) than for women (151.3/100 000). Exercising caused 30% of injuries among women and bicycling caused 17% of injuries among men. Twenty seven percent of all treated injuries were fractures and women (34%) were more likely than men (21%) to suffer fractures. CONCLUSIONS: Recreational activities were a frequent cause of injuries among older adults. Fractures were common. Many of these injuries are potentially preventable. As more persons engage in recreational activities, applying known injury prevention strategies will help to reduce the incidence of these injuries.

Description
An account of the resource
Purpose: Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), also known as von Recklinghausen disease, is a multisystemdisease with cutaneous symptoms occurring from birth to adulthood. It is a disorder with multiple malformations and tumors involving the skin, nervous system, and skeleton. The purpose of this report is to provide dermatology nurse practitionerswith an unusual case involving axillary freckling as well as evidence-based guidance for the diagnosis and management of cutaneous NF1 symptoms. Relevance: NF1 affects approximately 1 in 3,500 people. There is an equal incidence inmen andwomen aswell as in all races and ethnic groups. Most of the time, patients initially present to a primary care provider; however, patients may also present to a dermatology practice. It is indispensable for dermatology nurse practitioners to recognize early manifestations of this disorder so that the patient may be referred to seek specialized care and decrease the chance of disease complications. Essential Points: This report provides a case of NF1 as well as background, pathophysiology, diagnostic criteria, differential diagnoses, prognosis, and treatment of cutaneous manifestations of this disease.
