NYU Langone Comprehensive Review of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation is an intensive online CME program that examines current practices in the field of physical medicine and rehabilitation with an emphasis on recent clinical advances.
In addition to a written questions workshop and special lectures on the maintenance of certification process and electrodiagnosis, you can prep for exams with this broad series of clinically relevant continuing medical education topics, including:
- Diagnostic strategies for traumatic brain injury
- Assessment and management of the concussed athlete
- Botulinum toxin injection and ITB pump implant techniques for spasticity management
- Limitations and capabilities of musculoskeletal ultrasound for diagnosis and intervention
- Regulatory changes in PM&R
- And more…
Learning Objectives
After participating in this activity, clinicians should be able to:
- Incorporate evidence-based techniques for performing electrodiagnostic tests into practice
- Incorporate a diagnostic strategy for traumatic brain injury, based on awareness of high incidence
- Apply traditional physiatric care regarding traumatic brain injury for assessment and treatment of the concussed athlete
- Demonstrate knowledge of diagnosis and management of the concussed athlete
- Demonstrate correct injection and implanting techniques when treating spasticity management with botulinum toxin or use of an intrathecal baclofen (ITB) pump
- Incorporate best evidence-based clinical guidelines for diagnosis and treatment of musculoskeletal disorders
- Evaluate limitations and capabilities of musculoskeletal ultrasound for diagnostic and interventional procedures
- Incorporate the regulatory changes in PM&R and options for MOC lecture and discussion
