On the evening of June 30, the second leg match between Manchester Reds and Vietnam All Star at Hang Day Stadium gathered a group of legendary players in the history of English Premier League football such as Dwight Yorke, Teddy Sheringham, Michael Owen... Despite having retired, the famous players still demonstrated top-notch technique, speed and endurance, played flexibly, competed fiercely, and accelerated strongly in heavy rain without losing strength or getting injured.
Before the match, they were tested for fitness, recovery and injury screening using modern technology at Tam Anh General Hospital in Hanoi , according to strict standards no less than those in the Premier League.
The legendary players of "Man Red" showed their endurance and flexibility in heavy rain when playing a friendly match with Vietnamese players.
MSc. Dr. Nguyen Quang Ton Quyen, Deputy Head of the Department of Orthopedics and Sports Medicine at Tam Anh General Hospital in Hanoi, said that through discussions with the players, the doctors realized that they were being taken care of very well by the sports medicine system at the club and major centers in the UK. Fortunately, right before the 2 matches in Vietnam, the famous players had their health checked at the sports medicine center at Tam Anh General Hospital according to the strict standards of the Premier League.
The team of famous players experienced modern machinery systems such as the Compass 600 machine for musculoskeletal assessment, the Tecar Winback Back 4 machine for chronic pain treatment, along with a cycling robot, the Artromot K1 passive knee flexion and extension machine, and therapeutic ultrasound machines... to help restore physical strength and prevent injuries.
Famous footballer Michael Owen shared that he was very impressed with the modern machines at Tam Anh General Hospital and believes that this technology can prolong the peak performance of athletes.
Legend Michael Owen experiences the Compass 600 muscle strength assessment and training equipment system, which helps assess and train muscle strength, and is only equipped at leading European sports medicine centers.
As an experienced sports medicine expert, 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 players can still maintain their peak performance at the age of 40, even 50.
Modern sports medicine not only focuses on treating injuries but also helps athletes prolong their peak performance, optimize their physical strength and protect their musculoskeletal system. According to Dr. Quyen, this is a specialized medical field, serving both professional athletes, amateur sports players and patients who need rehabilitation after injuries or orthopedic surgery.
Unlike conventional medical treatment, sports medicine approaches athletes as a “complete motor system” - where each muscle, joint, and nerve reflex needs to be accurately assessed and scientifically intervened. This specialty aims at two major goals: Early detection of potential risks of injury such as motor deviation, muscle imbalance, and incorrect technique to develop an effective prevention and recovery roadmap; Intervention and emergency treatment of injuries with the right technique during competition, avoiding more serious injuries.
At the Orthopedic Trauma and Sports Medicine Center of Tam Anh General Hospital, the treatment regimen in the field of sports medicine is personalized and built multi-modally, combining internal and surgical medicine with the most modern technology system. The center owns an advanced imaging diagnostic system such as MRI 3.0 Tesla, CT Somatom Force VB30 integrated with AI; international standard Hybrid operating room with Artis Pheno robot supporting precise surgery through high-resolution 3D images.
Football legend Teddy Sheringham experiences the first AI-applied Somatom Force VB30 super CT scan in Vietnam to screen for potential injuries.
In addition, a series of specialized equipment for the field of sports medicine are applied such as the Dyneelax ligament assessment robot (currently used at major clubs such as Juventus, Barcelona), Shockwave shockwave machine to treat tendonitis, RF high frequency wave machine to increase circulation - reduce deep pain, R-force zero gravity recovery system, BTL spinal decompression machine to treat non-invasive disc herniation, CPET cardiopulmonary exercise meter...
Each year, the center performs more than 1,000 ligament reconstructions and more than 1,500 joint replacements each year, applying minimally invasive All-inside techniques, modern joint surgery methods such as ABMS, SuperPATH, and high-quality joint materials to help restore natural movement, improve quality of life and prolong mobility.
With thorough investment in expertise, technology and human resources, the Orthopedic Trauma and Sports Medicine Center of Tam Anh General Hospital in particular and Vietnamese sports medicine in general are approaching international standards, accompanying the new advances of the country's sports.
