Laura Finucane ¦ Serious pathology - meeting the challenge of identifying serious pathology in clinical practice (90 min)
Webinar in ENGLISH language A proportion of patients presenting to musculoskeletal services will have a serious pathology as the cause of their symptoms. Identifying serious pathology in a musculoskeletal setting can be challenging and is often identified in the late stages of the disease when prognosis is poor. This presentation will consider how the International framework which provides an evidence informed clinical reasoning framework for serious pathology of the spine, can be used in clinical practice to support clinicians in the face of potential serious pathology. It will offer the clinician a contemporary approach which seeks to support the early identification of serious pathology. About Laura: Laura Finucane is a consultant musculoskeletal physiotherapist and the clinical Director for Sussex MSK Partnership in the UK. She is an Honorary Associate Professor for St Georges University London. She is an external examiner and tutor for the master’s course leading to membership to the Musculoskeletal Association of Chartered Physiotherapists (MACP). Laura’s special interest is in serious pathologies of the spine and she has presented nationally and internationally on this subject. She has written a number of papers related to serious pathology and teaches at a postgraduate level. What you will get: Full webinar incl. replay link, supplementary material (handouts, etc.), chance to ask questions, certificate of participation | 29 November 2023j F Y | 20:002023-11-29T19:00:00ZH:i | 1.5 hours | Register |
Jo Nijs ¦ Nociplastic Pain Criteria or Recognition of Central Sensitization? Pain Phenotyping in the Past, Present & Future
Webinar in ENGLISH language In 2021, the International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP) released clinical criteria and a grading system for nociplastic pain affecting the musculoskeletal system1. These criteria replaced the 2014 clinical criteria for predominant central sensitization (CS) pain2-5, and account for clinicians’ need to (early) identify and correctly classify patients having chronic pain according to the pain phenotype. Still, clinicians and researchers can become confused by the multitude of terms and the variety of clinical criteria available. Therefore, this lecture aims at 1) providing an overview of what preceded the IASP criteria for nociplastic pain (‘the past’); 2) explaining the new IASP criteria for nociplastic pain in comparison with the 2014 clinical criteria for predominant CS pain (‘the present’); and 3) highlighting key areas for future implementation and research work in this area (‘the future’). It is explained that the 2021 IASP clinical criteria for nociplastic pain are in line with the 2014 clinical criteria for predominant CS pain, but are more robust, comprehensive, better developed and hold more potential 6. Therefore, the 2021 IASP clinical criteria for nociplastic pain are an important step towards precision pain medicine. About Jo: Jo Nijs is full professor at the Vrije Universiteit Brussel (Brussels, Belgium), physiotherapist/manual therapist at the University Hospital Brussels, holder of a Chair on oncological physiotherapy funded by the Berekuyl Academy, the Netherlands, and Visiting Professor at the University of Gothenburg (Sweden). Jo runs the Pain in Motion international and interdisciplinary research group (www.paininmotion.be). The primary aim of his research is improving care for patients with chronic pain. He trained more than 3k clinicians in 101 courses held in 14 countries spread over 4 continents.

Laura Finucane ¦ Spinal Fractures - serious or not? (90 min)
Webinar in ENGLISH language This webinar will explore the possible causes of spinal fractures and consider the differential diagnosis of osteoporosis, malignancy and myeloma. These are pathologies that benefit from early identification but can be challenging to identify. The audience will use their knowledge and clinical reasoning to decide the most likely cause of the fracture and subsequent management.
