The McGill School of Physical and Occupational Therapy is pleased to welcome Nathan Hutting, PT, PhD., Associate Professor, HAN University of Applied Sciences, Netherlands, to offer this workshop. The workshop will focus on safe management of people presenting with neck pain, headache or orofacial symptoms.
Participants will learn up-to-date knowledge about screening for vascular pathologies and blood flow limitations including:
- Vascular pathologies and flow limitations of the cervical spine region
- Vascular anatomy and signs and symptoms of vascular pathologies and flow limitations
- Contraindications, red flags and risk factors
- Important components of the patient history, physical examination (if you follow the second part of the workshop) and patient communication
On completion, participants will be able to conduct an evidence based clinical reasoning process, including a contemporary patient interview focused on identifying underlying (vascular) pathologies and risk factors. Moreover, attention will be given to communication, including providing appropriate information and advice.
