What you'll learn

At the conclusion of this activity, participants will be able to:

  • Describe the basic anatomy and function of the ankle
  • Describe the types of injuries that may occur in the ankle joint
  • Discuss non-surgical and surgical treatment options for ankle injuries
  • Discuss rehabilitation of the ankle after an injury
  • Discuss possible complications of ankle injuries and treatment

Course overview

Ankle fractures represent a common yet often complex challenge across a wide range of healthcare settings, affecting patients of all ages and activity levels. These injuries demand accurate diagnosis, evidence-based treatment decisions, and coordinated multidisciplinary care to optimize functional recovery and prevent long-term complications. Without a thorough understanding of fracture classification, imaging interpretation, surgical indications, and progressive rehabilitation strategies, even minor missteps in management can result in poor outcomes, including chronic pain, instability, or arthritis. This course equips healthcare providers with the critical knowledge and clinical tools needed to address ankle fractures effectively, integrating the latest research and best practices from orthopedics, rehabilitation, and pain management to ensure optimal care from initial injury through full recovery.
