Nonoperative, Postoperative, and Return to Sport Protocols for the Shoulder, Elbow, Hip, Knee, and Ankle
Kevin Wilk, Mike Reinold, and Dr. James Andrews
It's hard to stay on top of the current research and know how to progress your patients after a variety of different injuries and surgeries. There are so many different types of surgeries that can come into your clinic, each with their own subtle variations. Rehabilitation protocols are an important tool that you can use to:
- Assure you are following the precautions and time restrictions based on the tissue healing time frames following injury or surgery
- Know how fast or slow to progress a patient
- Know if you are falling behind and assure people are making adequate progress
- Know the criteria to transition to more advanced phases of rehabilitation
- Understand how different concomitant injuries speed up or slow down the process
- What exercises should I perform at week 6 following a total knee replacement?
- How does rehabilitation differ after a large or small rotator cuff tear?
- How much range of motion should I have at week 8 following a SLAP repair?
- How does rehabilitation differ based on using a patellar tendon or hamstring autograft during ACL reconstruction?
- How does adding a subacromial decompression change your rate of progression after a labral repair?
Take the guess work out of how to progress your patients following an injury or surgery. AdvancedCEU has the latest rehabilitation protocols from Kevin Wilk, Mike Reinold, and James Andrews. Our protocols are backed by evidence and experience, being used in our own rehabilitation clinics everyday.
