Orthopaedic Physiotherapy Grand Rounds 6 - Radiation Complexities or Something More?

Overview:

According to Wikipedia, Grand Rounds have historically been a methodology of medical education consisting of presenting the medical problems and treatment of a particular patient to an audience consisting of doctors, pharmacists, residents, and medical students.

The Adjunct Education Committee of the National Orthopaedic Division is initiating Orthopaedic Physiotherapy Grand Rounds

Orthopaedic Physiotherapy Grand Rounds 6 was presented online on  November 23, 2021 and this is the recording from that presentation.

The case is a patient with shoulder pain and stiffness post breast cancer treatment. Topics discussed include radiation-induced pathologies, adhesive capsulitis, and psychosocial factors that impact the patient’s course of recovery. Panelists provide their clinical reasoning for treatment suggestions, which range from more global approaches of focusing on increasing physical activity, decreasing kinesiophobia (fear of movement) to more specific interventions of postural correction and scapular stabilization/mobilization.
