Description:
The purpose of this interactive course is to present an anatomical and biomechanical basis for various rehabilitation programs and strategies used in elbow rehabilitation. Once a foundation in normal anatomy and biomechanics is established, the course outlines pathomechanics and predictable rehabilitation challenges that the clinician will face during assessment and treatment of elbow disorders.
Fracture patterns reviewed include the distal humeral, radial head and Monteggia injuries. Strategies for managing stiffness are offered. These include, bracing, splinting and drop out casting for mobility, joint mobilizations, therapeutic activities and exercise regimens. Physical agent interventions are also presented. Soft tissue injuries reviewed include medial and lateral collateral ligament injuries, biceps tendon rupture, epicondylitis and nerve compression syndromes. Conservative assessment and treatment of these conditions is presented. Surgical management is presented including intra-operative photos and schematics are used to demonstrate surgical approaches. Post-operative treatment plans and protocols are also presented. Note: This course provides conceptual preparation to seek additional training, and does not provide you a mentored hands-on skills session. Please seek additional experience, with a mentor, to perform hands-on skills. Upon Successful completion of the examination (75%) your certificate will be sent via email.
Objectives:
The participant will gain a thorough exposure to normal elbow anatomy and biomechanics
The participant will review management of the distal humeral, radial head and Monteggia fracture patterns.
The participant will be able to describe a plan treatment for fractures of the elbow.
The participant will become familiear with management skills for the stiff elbow.
The participant will describe the conservative assessment skills for nerve compression syndromes including Pronator syndrome, Cubital tunnel and radial tunnel syndrome.
The participant will observe techniques of hinged splinting prescription and indications.
The participant will review the elbow’s role and relationship to the shoulder and hand in providing normal upper extremity function.

| Dear Nancy and Susan-
I love this format for studying!!
The course content was thorough, and extremely informative. The best thing was being able to replay sections. I cannot do this in a regular class.
Thank you for your committment to our profession, and for your assistance as I complete my CE requirements.
Sincerely,
Pat England, OTR/L |

| After viewing 3 DVDs with Susan and Nancy, it was hard to get into the grove of Paul, but he was concise and to the point which I appreciated. I noticed a difference between his manual (that I downloaded) and the others. He had more verbal information that was not in the manual that prompted me to rewind and listen to over again in order to get it all down. I found his exam to be a bit more difficult as well as the questions were not all addressed in a clear fashion during the video. |

| I forgot to mention in my first review - It would be most excellent if you all could figure out a way to enhance the anatomy pictures - color, arrows ( a few pictures had these and it was nice), something to make sure that I am seeing what you want me to see. |
