LONDON - September 18th 2013 (Wednesday) Registration: , Presentation: (there will be a short refreshment interval in the lecture) Outline Whiplash injury and whiplash associated disorder (WAD) present a particular challenge to both clinicians and researchers. This is a multi-factorial, multi-stakeholder phenomenon which is characterised by controversy and contradiction. This evening lecture attempts to cast light on this complex area by providing a focused, contemporary update of the evidence, science and best practice behind whiplash and WAD. The evening is aimed at the clinician wanting to understand the evidence and optimise their evidence-based assessment and management of this patient group. Topics covered include: Re-defining Whiplash Associated Disorder The transition and RISK of chronicity Understanding which interventions work, and which don t Sensori-motor integration approach to WAD Advanced rehabilitation muscle training for the neck! 1st & only chance to hear this lecture in London in 2013 Learning outcomes On attending this lecture, you will be able to: 1. Define and discuss a contemporary, evidence-based understanding of what WAD is 2. Identify and employ effective evidence-based assessment and management strategies 3. Demonstrate understanding and clinical application of key literature on WAD 4. Differentiate patients who are more likely to respond to treatment, and those more likely to develop chronic pain 5. Reflectively evaluate your own thoughts and practice reading this patient group Fee: 40 (inclusive of vat) includes handouts, refreshments & CPD certificate (2.5hrs)
