MSAH 6200 - Advanced Evaluation and Treatment of Athletic Injuries

Hours: 3
This course is designed to build upon the concepts presented in Gross Anatomy of the Extremities. Students will be asked to critique their current evaluation schemes for orthopedic injuries according to the best available evidence-based medicine. In addition students will be asked to extend their evaluation schemes to include lesions resulting from macro- and microtrauma. The concept of clinical prediction rules will be presented to enable students to evaluate treatment strategies for a multitude of orthopedic injuries. Students will also be provided with opportunities for advanced clinical practice in the areas of lower extremity biomechanics, throwing analysis, and manual therapy techniques. Other special topics will be included as time permits.
