Format: LIVE (in-person)
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
Presenter:
- 20 years of providing exceptional education of the upper extremity
- Matchless educational format–didactic, lab and case study format; excellent methods to advance clinical problem-solving
- An intimate, welcoming conference setting conducive to audience participation, peer exchange, and peerless education
- Destination location, limitless recreation/entertainment for all ages.
- Shop like a pro in Palm Beach Gardens, with a retail scene that rivals the golf. The Gardens Mall has high-end department stores and runway-ready designer labels, while the open-air Downtown at the Gardens offers more than 50 boutiques, restaurants and a movie theater. Still more retail therapy awaits at Legacy Place, PGA Commons and Mainstreet at Midtown.
- “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.
- 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.
