Course Objectives: Course Objectives for PT/OT: . This course will give the PT/OT/PTA/COTA a better understanding of commonly used surgical techniques for orthopedic impairments including joint replacement surgeries and fracture management.This understanding will allow the PT/OT to be more specific and more effective when designing the PT/OT Plan of Care and give the PT/OT/PTA/COTA a great understanding and awareness of (joint) precaution that may be in place. Having this understanding will allow the clinician to reintroduce functional activities faster to help return the patient to reach their prior level of function. A prime example would be the specific precautions that are in place for the Reverse Shoulder Replacement. This is a new and upcoming procedure and PT's/OT¿s/PTA's/COTA¿s will see these patients in their practice. Understanding the surgical approach, the reversal of the shoulder mechanics, and relying on the deltoid muscle to stabilize the shoulder, will help the PT/OT/PTA/COTA attending this course to appreciate the different rehab approach for this type of patient. Furthermore, understanding the rationale behind different weight bearing statuses with the various lower extremities orthopedic procedures, will allow the PT/OT/PTA/COTA to better integrate a patient¿s ambulatory status into their level of activities 

Brief description of course: With today¿s rapid development and introduction of new orthopedic implants, it is hard to keep up with these developments. This seminar will discuss new developments in orthopedic replacement techniques and how these procedures affect post-op rehab. Genderknee, reverse shoulder and Birmingham hip resurfacing and other new technologies will be discussed. Functional rehab and it¿s effect on clinical outcomes will be discussed as well. This class has been updated and now also includes discussion on Patient Specific Cutting Blocks, Navigation systems and the latest hip and knee technologies including Hip anteverted/retroverted systems and their affect on post-operative rehab.
