Seeing Red? Pediatric Red Flags Part 2: Cardiopulmonary, Integumentary, Urogenital, and
Musculoskeletal/Orthopedic Systems (Recorded Webinar)

Video Runtime: 74 Minutes; Learning Assessment Time: 26 Minutes

This course is a recording of a previously hosted live webinar event. Polling and question submission features are not available for this recording. Format and structure may differ from those of standard Medbridge courses.

This webinar, part 2 of a 2-part series for pediatric therapists and assistants, continues to emphasize the importance of a quick screening of systems for symptoms, signs, and red flags as part of the examination of children from birth to 21 years or when new symptoms or signs appear. Part 2 gives therapists and therapist assistants the tools to quickly screen additional systems to recognize findings outside of their scope of practice. The function of each system is briefly described, and case examples are used to analyze red flags for the cardiopulmonary, integumentary, urogenital, and musculoskeletal systems. Completion of both webinars will give learners confidence in screening all systems, recognizing red flags, and knowing when to refer patients to other professionals.

Learning Objectives

• Distinguish red flags from cautionary and typical findings for the cardiopulmonary, integumentary, urogenital, and musculoskeletal systems using best practices
• Conduct a functional review of each system to screen for potential red flags
• Determine when referral is warranted based on case-based red flag findings
• Determine how interactions among cardiopulmonary, integumentary, urogenital, and musculoskeletal systems contribute to red flag identification
• Identify how red flags in the cardiopulmonary, integumentary, urogenital, and musculoskeletal systems can affect a child's ability to participate in daily occupations such as mobility, toileting, and school activities
