Abstract: 

Exertional rhabdomyolysis is a potentially life threatening clinical syndrome that can develop due to skeletal muscle deterioration. Educational competencies include: prevention, clinical examination, diagnosis, and emergency care of a rhabdomyolysis event. Current knowledge gaps include a lack of awareness of underlying genetic conditions, and non-sport specific training conditions that can lead to this syndrome.
