The Shoulder 2016 Compendium

Course Description

Shoulder conditions are among the most common musculoskeletal presentations seen in a primary care providers’ office. In 2013 it was reported that there were 11 million visits for shoulder injury and 80% of people with shoulder pain were treated in the general practice setting first. Medical knowledge is continuing to evolve as evidence based practice guidelines are refined and intensively scrutinized. Common shoulder disorders often exhibit similar clinical features which may create some clinical confusion for primary care providers. Poor consensus exists surrounding the classification and naming of many shoulder conditions, compounded by evidence indicating that clinical examination and investigations may have limited utility. However, providing practical training to general practitioners about shoulder problems has significant benefit and cost effectiveness. A thorough understanding of the shoulder anatomy, combined with improved clinical judgment, are essential when formulating a diagnosis and management plan for the patient with an injured shoulder. “The Shoulder 2016: An Evidence Based Update” is designed to provide primary care providers with a comprehensive understanding of shoulder injury management.
