18 Continuing Education Credits
This course is ideal for therapists who are preparing for the CHT Exam or who are pursuing a study of the upper extremity. The course will advance understanding of a range of upper extremity diagnoses and treatments while expanding your clinical reasoning via case study analysis regardless of your level of experience.
Level: Intermediate
Course Description:
Participants will actively participate in the detailed study of extensor and flexor tendon anatomy, historic and recent evidence and the latest treatment considerations relating to extensor and flexor tendon injuries.  Participants will study the anatomical relationships between the extrinsic extensor and flexor anatomy and the intrinsic anatomy of the hand.  This course will employ didactic presentation, group discussion, drawing labs and case presentation.  Presentation and lab formats will foster an environment of collaborative interaction that promotes independent and group problem-solving and skill development.
Learning Outcomes Assessment Methods: The learner will demonstrate the ability to recognize and treatment make judgments based on anatomy and evidence-based interventions by verbally reciting, drawing and discussing to group partners. The learner will then put anatomical and pathological concepts together to create new and novel constructs of learning.

 

Objectives:

The learner will:

  • Advance understanding of normal anatomy surrounding extensor and flexor tendon injuries
  • Advance working knowledge of the anatomy of the flexor digitorum profundus and flexor superficialis tendons from origin to insertion and describe the function and zone classification of each
  • Determine structural and anatomical considerations of each extensor and flexor tendon zone
  • Increase understanding of the phases of tendon healing following repair
  • Establish clinical rationale for the anatomical and biomechanical importance of the extrinsic extensor mechanism, the flexor pulley system and the balance between the two
  • Advance understanding of surgical techniques used to repair tendons in regards to suture technique, placement, and strength and detail the rationale for common extensor and flexor tendon rehabilitation protocols
  • Advance working knowledge of the etiology paradoxical extension and its role in treating flexor tendon injuries
  • Increase understanding of the normal relationship between the flexor digitorum profundus tendon  and the lumbrical muscle
  • Establish clinical rationale and evidence of the modulating and proprioceptive role of the lumbrical muscle in relation to the flexor digitorum profundus muscle
  • Introduce clinical framework for understanding the potential of a spectrum of paradoxical extension following Zone II flexor digitorum profundus tendon injuries

  6. “At the storied PGA National Resort, you’ll find five championship courses that are as challenging as they are picturesque. The Champion – first designed by Tom and George Fazio and recently reimagined by Jack Nicklaus (The Golden Bear) – ranks as the most difficult course in Florida. Each winter, the course draws the world’s top players to compete in the Honda Classic, a premier event on the PGA TOUR. The course is infamous for its challenging three-hole stretch – The Bear Trap – named after Nicklaus himself.
  7. If you prefer shades of blue over greens, join Lacuna Tours for a sightseeing eco tour or family-friendly fishing trip in the Lake Worth Lagoon. Whether you’ve spent a relaxing day on the fairway, shopping or on the water, reward yourself with a craft brew from Twisted Trunk Brewing Company and sip an IPGA Eldorado-hopped IPA at the taproom bar, beautifully crafted from the wood of a 100-year-old elm.
