Omschrijving scholing

Instantly applicable clinically relevant evidenced-informed assessment and treatment of low back pain. What tests what? Evidenced-informed pathoanatomic assessment and testing...
The course centers on a pragmatic approach to the evidenced-based assessment and treatment of low back pain, both acute and persistent. An evidenced informed and broad-based focus will be employed, while reviewing current knowledge of LBP, breaking myths and addressing controversies and offering a thought-provoking course. The ultimate goal is to stimulate a rational and balanced approach to the clinical management of low back pain.
The context of the course includes the biopsychosocial model, diagnostic triage, evidenced-based pathoanatomic assessment and testing utilizing likelihood ratios and review of selected clinical prediction rules, and guideline treatment review. See course content breakdown.
The course will offer a clinically relevant knowledge base to complement current practice and build clinical confidence in the management and education of persons with low back pain. The course has a didactic and practical element. The lecture element is practical in application. The irrelevant theory is kept to a minimum.
