Physical Therapy of the Shoulder, 5th Ed: Module 4 SKU: 734 By Robert A. Donatelli, PhD, PT, OCS This course is offered in cooperation with Elsevier Science and utilizes the textbook, “Physical Therapy of the Shoulder, 5th Ed”, c2012, edited by Robert A. Donatelli, PhD, PT, OCS. Dr. Donatelli is a certified Orthopedic Clinical Specialist with over 30 years of clinical hands-on experience. This textbook is the leading reference on the shoulder and is now completely up-to-date with state-of-the-art rehabilitation and surgical techniques. It is an essential resource to the therapist, providing valuable information on functional anatomy, the mechanics of movement, neurologic, special, and surgical considerations and evaluation and treatment. This new edition provides new information, concepts, and evaluation of physical therapy and dysfunction based on the APTA Guide to Physical Therapy Practice, 2nd Ed and integrates these practice patterns with rehabilitation of the shoulder. These courses are essential to therapists treating shoulder injuries in all rehabilitation settings! Module 1 covers the mechanics of movement and evaluation including the guide to practice, functional anatomy and mechanics, throwing injuries and examinations and evaluation of the shoulder Module 2 covers neurologic considerations including the interrelationship of the spine, rib cage and shoulder, neural tissue evaluation and treatment, sensory integration and neuromuscular control of the shoulder and evaluation and treatment of brachial plexus lesions. Module 3 covers special considerations including impingement syndrome and impingement-related instability, frozen shoulder, evaluation and rehabilitation of rotator cuff pathologic conditions and rehabilitation and visceral pain referred to the shoulder Module 4 covers treatment approaches including manual therapy, muscle length testing and electromyographic evidence for manual strength testing and exercises for the shoulder, rotator cuff repairs and surgical approaches to shoulder instabilities Course Length: 8.0 contact hours Instructional Level: Beginner/Intermediate This package contains the required reading and test materials for Module 4 only. Physical Therapy of the Shoulder, 5th Ed: Module 4 Course Goals and Objectives: Course Goals: This course is intended to instruct the student through self-paced study on treatment approaches to the shoulder including: manual therapy techniques, muscle length testing and electomyographic data for manual strength testing, and to instruct the student in surgical considerations for rotator cuff repairs and shoulder instabilities. Student Objectives: At the end of this course the student will be able to: 1. Identify 6 terms used when discussing manual therapy 2. Identify 4 examples of protective shoulder injuries 3. Identify 6 phases of rehabilitation for patients with protective shoulder injuries 4. Identify 4 examples of nonprotective shoulder injuries 5. Identify 3 phases of rehabilitation for patients with nonprotective shoulder injuries 6. Identify the primary role of joint mobilization 7. Identify 4 principles of joint mobilization techniques 8. Identify 11 glenohumeral joint mobilization techniques 9. Identify 4 sternoclavicular and acromioclavicular mobilization techniques 10. Identify 11 soft tissue mobilization and scapulothoracic release techniques 11. Identify 5 treatment hand techniques when performing soft tissue mobilization 12. Identify the most common muscle involved in rotator cuff tears 13. Identify the most common cause of rotator cuff tears in young, athletic patients 14. Identify 7 causes of rotator cuff tears 15. Identify the most common operative treatments for rotator cuff repairs 16. Identify indications for an open technique rotator cuff repair 17. Identify 3 factors affecting the degree of patient satisfaction with a rotator cuff repair 18. Identify the static (passive) stabilizers of the shoulder 19. Identify the active (dynamic) stabilizers of the shoulder 20. Identify the five Ds of shoulder instability 21. Identify the pathogenesis of shoulder instability 22. Identify causes and problems of recurrent shoulder instability 23. Identify common anterior, posterior and multidirectional instabilities and the lesions that may result 24. Identify 6 special tests for shoulder instability 25. Identify components in the decision-making process for conservative treatment of shoulder instability 26. Identify common surgical procedures performed for shoulder instability 27. Identify rehabilitation guidelines for postoperative anterior capsulolabral reconstruction, Bankart’s repair, capsular shift procedures, thermal-assisted capsulorrhaphy for patient with acquired laxity, and postoperative instability 28. Identify rehabilitation guidelines for shoulder multidirectional instability stabilization
