Training and Treating Runners of Different Levels Learning Objective:
- Demonstrate an improved understanding of basic training principles as it pertains to tissue regeneration, exercise progression and potential for tissue breakdown.
- Enhanced comprehension of load management principles including workload application.
- Develop an understanding of the differences in injury presentation and prognosis for runners of different levels.
- A sound appreciation for the influence of different running injury factors and the influence they have on the different levels of runners.
- Improve ability to tailor treatment strategies to runners of different levels.
- Progress understanding of training methods, biopsychosocial influences, and common errors that each different level of runner may experience.
Movement System Evaluation and Treatment of the Hip Joint
Learning Objectives:
- Develop an efficient system of functional performance testing to evaluate impairments of the hip leading movement system dysfunction of the trunk and lower extremity.
- Create a classification-based treatment approach that is supported by current evidence in kinematic and neuromuscular relationships of the hip joint and lower kinetic chain.
- Evaluate the causes of aberrant movement patterns during functional performance tests for the lower extremity that may contribute to hip dysfunction.
- Formulate evidence-based treatment interventions based on the findings of functional performance testing of the lower extremity.
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion in Healthcare
Course Objectives: Training in Diversity, Equity and Inclusion leads to better understanding of unique treatment dynamics which leads to improved clinical outcomes;
- Understand how cultural competence improves better quality of care
- Create a culture where individuals with diverse backgrounds feel empowered to achieve success
- Communicate effectively with patients and families across a broad range of cultural backgrounds.
- Recognize the impact of social determinants on health disparities in access to quality of care
Wheelchair Seating/Mobility, Documentation, and Cardiopulmonary Impact of Seating/Positioning
Wheelchair Technology
- To understand the features of ultralight weight manual wheelchairs (K0005) and their role in ergonomic fit and function (e.g., efficient propulsion and prevention of repetitive strain)
- To understand the features and seat functions of power wheelchairs (Group 3) and their role in ergonomic fit and function
Wheelchair service delivery process
- To understand structure and content of effective letters of medical necessity for assistive technology
- To translate knowledge of effective letters of medical necessity to cases
- To increase awareness of technology available to enhance the wheelchair service delivery process
Impact of wheelchair seating and positioning on cardiopulmonary function:
- Discuss impairments associated with people with neurological conditions and potential secondary conditions that can impact morbidity and mortality
- Review five cardiopulmonary outcome measures and ways that they can support clinical decision-making in wheelchair prescription
- Examine the impact of wheelchair positioning and seating cardiopulmonary function
- Examine the impact of physical activity on cardiopulmonary function and options for improving cardiopulmonary fitness in wheelchair users
