Sports medicine helps Red Devils legends compete persistently in Hanoi

The Red Devils' legendary squad is playing well thanks to the recovery regimen accumulated over many years from prestigious centers and intensive medical care at Tam Anh General Hospital.

On the evening of June 30, in a friendly match with the Vietnam All Stars team, Dwight Yorke, Teddy Sheringham, Michael Owen, Wes Brown and Dion Dublin played fiercely, moved flexibly, accelerated and had many beautiful shots, despite the wet field and unfavorable weather conditions. Although losing to Vietnam All Stars with a score of 2-3, no one was injured and still maintained their stamina until the last minute. Two days before, the "star squad" had just played the first leg at Hoa Xuan Stadium ( Da Nang ), surprising fans.

Right before the match, the Red Devils legends were checked for health, physical recovery and potential injury screening with a personalized roadmap using modern technology at the Sports Medicine & Rehabilitation Center of Tam Anh General Hospital. According to Master, Doctor Nguyen Quang Ton Quyen, Deputy Head of the Department of Orthopedics & Sports Medicine, the doctors comprehensively evaluated the motor system, cardiovascular system, respiratory system, reflexes and physical performance indicators.

Michael Owen, the famous player who suffered a hamstring injury in 1999 that almost ended his career, has personally experienced the Compass 600 super machine that helps test, evaluate and train muscle strength, measure neuromuscular reflexes, help control movement and better coordinate limbs. The famous player said that if these technologies were applied earlier, the peak performance of many players could be extended.

In addition, the legends also experienced a series of modern rehabilitation systems only available at the world's leading Sports Medicine Centers such as the Tecar Winback Back 4 multi-frequency therapy machine, Artromot K1 (passive knee flexion and extension), automatic cycling robot, SONOPULS ultrasound therapy machine, and new generation shock, electric pulse and laser devices.

The care and rehabilitation sessions at Tam Anh General Hospital help the players optimize their physical condition, ensure safe movement and prolong their performance in harsh conditions. The actual match on June 30th showed that the players competed enthusiastically, demonstrating many difficult techniques while still ensuring safety and avoiding unnecessary injuries. This is a clear demonstration of the role of modern sports medicine in accompanying and protecting athletes' health.

As an experienced expert in sports medicine, directly treating and taking care of the health of many domestic and international athletes, Dr. Quyen affirmed that sports medicine plays a great role in maintaining the form and class of professional athletes in particular and sports enthusiasts in general. Previously, the peak performance of athletes often only lasted until the age of 30, but now thanks to the remarkable development of sports medicine, many athletes can still maintain their peak performance at the age of 40, even 50.

At the Sports Medicine & Rehabilitation Center, Tam Anh General Hospital, athletes have access to a comprehensive treatment plan with a multi-modal, personalized regimen. Not only stopping at internal and surgical treatment or rest and recuperation, experts also create a comprehensive plan with the most modern technology and latest techniques. Athletes will be assessed for in-depth injuries, detecting potential risks with a world-class imaging diagnostic system such as a 3.0 Tesla MRI machine or a super CT Somatom Force VB30 machine using AI.

When surgical intervention is needed, Tam Anh General Hospital also owns an international standard Hybrid operating room, integrated with the Artis Pheno surgical robot that supports high-resolution 3D imaging, helping doctors plan and perform surgery accurately.

Modern equipment such as Dyneelax robot (ligament assessment), Shockwave machine, RF, R-force (zero gravity recovery) ... are regularly applied in treatment and rehabilitation.

Every year, Tam Anh General Hospital performs more than 1,000 ligament reconstructions and 1,500 joint replacements using advanced techniques such as ABMS, SuperPATH, Optimys joints, Medial Pivot... The center is recognized as an excellent joint replacement unit in Southeast Asia, affirming its pioneering role in the field of sports medicine. Vietnam is approaching international standards.
