Presented by Eric Robertson, PT, DPT, OCS, FAAOMPT and Jodi Young, PT, DPT, OCS, FAAOMPT
Orthopedic Case Studies of the Shoulder
Shoulder pain is a common diagnosis seen in outpatient orthopedic clinics. The causes for shoulder pain are varied, and although a particular mechanism of injury may point to one specific diagnosis, it is necessary to appropriately analyze the patient's symptoms and clinical presentation to determine the accurate physical therapy diagnosis.
Orthopedic Case Studies of the Lumbar Spine
Presented by Eric Robertson, PT, DPT, OCS, FAAOMPT and Jodi Young, PT, DPT, OCS, FAAOMPT
Orthopedic Case Studies of the Lumbar Spine
This is a collection of three cases involving the lumbar spine presented in "rounds" style, where a resident presents the case to faculty for discussion. The cases will review differential diagnosis, examination, intervention, and prognosis for patients with various presentations of low back pain. Test items and small lectures are interspersed to help integrate concepts and highlight key content.
Orthopedic Case Studies of the Cervical Spine
Presented by Eric Robertson, PT, DPT, OCS, FAAOMPT and Jodi Young, PT, DPT, OCS, FAAOMPT
Orthopedic Case Studies of the Cervical Spine
This course is a collection of three cases involving the cervical spine presented in "rounds" style, where a resident presents the case to faculty for discussion. The cases will review differential diagnosis, examination, intervention, and prognosis for patients with various presentations of neck pain.

Cranio-Mandibular Case Studies
Presented by Eric Robertson, PT, DPT, OCS, FAAOMPT and Jodi Young, PT, DPT, OCS, FAAOMPT
Cranio-Mandibular Case Studies
The upper cervical spine and cranio-mandibular area are home to a variety of structures critical for life. The burden to properly and thoroughly screen patients with complaints in these regions is crucial. This course reviews red flag screening for cns symptoms and intervention options as part of a patient's case while discussing TMJ kinematics and biomechanics and efficient mechanisms for proper client management.
Foot and Ankle Mechanics
Presented by Jodi Young, PT, DPT, OCS, FAAOMPT
Foot and Ankle Mechanics
The mechanics of the foot and ankle are rather complex, and breaking down what happens at each joint is beneficial in understanding how to better serve your patients when they come to you with a foot and/or ankle pathology. This course will start with a review of foot and ankle functional anatomy and then lead to a discussion of the mechanics associated with normal and abnormal movement of the foot and ankle. Lastly, we will discuss how to most appropriately assess for the use of orthotics, and review the appropriate orthotic prescription for specific foot postures.
Case Studies of the Upper Quarter: Elbow and Wrist
Presented by Jodi Young, PT, DPT, OCS, FAAOMPT and Eric Robertson, PT, DPT, OCS, FAAOMPT
Case Studies of the Upper Quarter: Elbow and Wrist
In these case studies we'll assess two different patients referred to physical therapy for elbow and wrist pain. The first patient is a 39-year-old right handed male who has returned to school for his PhD in microbiology. The patient is referred to physical therapy for right achy elbow pain that started six months ago, which was three weeks into his new program. The second is A 27-year-old left handed female with a newborn (six weeks old) infant, who is referred to physical therapy for left radial wrist pain that started when she was eight months pregnant. Our panel will review the anatomy and differential diagnosis related to each condition. Furthermore, our panel will assess proper examination procedures and identify interventions to properly manage each patient's progress through physical therapy.
Case Studies of the Hip: Osteoarthritis
Presented by Eric Robertson, PT, DPT, OCS, FAAOMPT and Jodi Young, PT, DPT, OCS, FAAOMPT
Case Studies of the Hip: Osteoarthritis
Hip pain is a commonly encountered medical condition in physical therapy clinics. Diagnostic requirements include not only identifying a cause for the pain locally in the hip, but also ruling out pain from areas like the lumbar spine. This case reviews a 53-year-old male who presented to physical therapy with left hip pain and groin pain that began five weeks prio and gradually worsened. He works as a plumber, and is often squatting, stooping and climbing up and down stairs over the course of a long work day.
Orthopedic Case Studies of the Foot and Ankle
Presented by Eric Robertson, PT, DPT, OCS, FAAOMPT and Jodi Young, PT, DPT, OCS, FAAOMPT
Orthopedic Case Studies of the Foot and Ankle
In these studies our panel will discuss two patients. Our first patient, a 34-year-old female, has utilized direct access to be seen in physical therapy after she slipped on some ice five days ago while running to catch the bus and turned her right ankle inward. The pain is located on the outside of the ankle and she indicates that the swelling has improved some with the compression sock, but overall it is still swollen and she has significant bruising.Our other patient, a 62-year-old female, was referred to physical therapy for pain on the bottom of her left foot that started four weeks ago when she began training for a breast cancer walk where she will be walking up to ten miles a day for three days. If she stands for more than ten minutes, she develops a burning sensation in the medial arch on the left side.
