So
You Want Higher Wages? - Joan Knighton,
R.T. (Orthopaed)
To
Teach: the path to improved wage scales via
membership in a local union.
Favourite
Cases - Dr. Scott Mandel,
Insight
into treatment decisions re difficult cases,
rehab protocols
A
Whirlwind Tour of Paediatric Orthopaedics- Joan
Knighton, R.T. (Orthopaed)
As
the word ortho paedics is literally "the straightening
of children" this lecture is all encompassing. It will
cover congenital, developmental, neoplasms, infections
and trauma as it applies to the child. The differences
between the adult and the child regarding orthopaedics
will also be covered. Included are many, many slides to
bring the topic alive!
Advanced
Casting with Gore Procel - Will Mayweather, OT-SC, OPA-C
Review
indications for Gore Procel castliner; demonstration of
application/removal technique in short arm, long arm,
short leg and various specialty hand casts.
Clubfoot
the Ponseti Way - Barb Harvey, Physical Therapist, Clubfoot
Clinic
Treatment
of clubfoot has varied across the country and round the
world for decades. Since January 2003, a treatment protocol
following the Ponseti Method has been universally adopted
at
the Hospital for Sick Children's Orthopaedic Clinic as the
primary
treatment of choice for infants with idiopathic clubfeet.
The Ponseti
method involves specific manual manipulation of the ankle
and foot
through serial casting, in a technique which differed significantly
from traditional casting methods. Full correction is achieved
in the majority of patients within 10 - 12 weeks.
With
the primary casting now under the physiotherapist
and orthopaedic technologists, in the past five years, our
clubfoot
clinic has successfully treated over 300 infants with this
complex
deformity, with a 98% reduction in open surgery.
