Texas – Secondary Impingement Syndrome
$35.99
An online continuing education course for PT’s and PTA’s!
Glenohumeral Translational Pathology (GTP) is sometimes referred to as secondary impingement of the shoulder. Making the proper diagnosis is sometimes very difficult because clinical objective examination doesn’t confirm the pathology. In the very active individual, such as overhead throwing athletes, this condition can lead to surgical stabilization. A protective rehabilitation protocol is needed to preserve the time constraints of tissue healing. This course will explore these protective rehabilitation phases from protective tissue healing mobility to full functional return to one’s activity.
Course Overview
After taking this course, participants will have completed the following objectives:
1. Explore current surgical procedures for labrum, SLAP repairs and capsular stabilization
2. Revisit the importance of protective mobility in the early phases of rehabilitation
3. Develop open and closed kinetic chain exercise applications with progressive range of motion
4. Update return to activity with advanced functional exercises
