ACJ and SCJ Dislocations and Fractures

Are you sure most shoulder pains fall into the category of rotator cuff injuries, tendinitis, fractures? When I ask: when was the last time you have attended to the ACJ strain or SCJ dislocation most votes are usually 10% or less. As we progress through the history, presentation, symptoms, complications and rehabilitation most of you identify and recognize symptoms that were most likely ACJ strain but mimicked rotator cuff injury. I feel understanding the injuries of AC and SC joints is vital to understand why don't some shoulder pains and range of motions don't  resolve. These are the missing links that play a vital role in shoulder rehabilitation. 

This webinar focuses on educating participants on the identification, diagnosis, and rehabilitation of acromioclavicular joint (ACJ) and sternoclavicular joint (SCJ) injuries. The webinar aims to equip participants with the skills necessary to diagnose these injuries by identifying three signs of each injury. Additionally, participants will learn how to design and implement rehabilitation programs for patients in acute and chronic phases of ACJ and SCJ injuries.

The webinar will also cover rehabilitation strategies and protocols for ACJ and SCJ injuries, providing participants with a deeper understanding of various techniques used to treat these injuries. Participants will learn how to apply this knowledge in clinical settings to improve patient outcomes.

In summary, the webinar will provide comprehensive education on ACJ and SCJ injuries, with the ultimate goal of equipping participants with practical skills and insights to identify, diagnose, and treat these injuries effectively. By the end of the webinar, participants should be able to design rehabilitation programs and apply rehabilitation strategies and protocols for patients with ACJ and SCJ injuries, leading to improved outcomes for these patients.
