Essentials for Outpatient Evaluation of the Shoulder (Bellm)

Course overview

The shoulder is the most mobile joint in the body which lends it to many different injuries. When evaluating the shoulder clinicians have to navigate many different subjective complaints as well as choose between motion tests, strength tests, along with many "special" tests. This course will discuss the evidence-based approach to evaluating the shoulder to help clinicians best use the time. Attendees will review the evidence behind the subjective questioning and objective measures we use to help them best treat their patients. At the end of the course, attendees will have an effective, evidence-based, and efficient approach to evaluating the shoulder.
