Scottish Rite for Children's 'Pediatric Orthopedic Education Series 2021' (JS2102B)
Scottish Rite Hospital for Children presents a Pediatric Orthopedic Education Series (POES): Pediatric Orthopedic Surgery Topics for Health Care Professionals. This one-day conference will review common musculoskeletal pathologies with an emphasis on virtual demonstrations for performing a pediatric orthopedic examination. These new skills will enable the practitioner to perform a detailed musculoskeletal examination, and combine that information with additional musculoskeletal learning to diagnose and either treat or refer the patient to a qualified pediatric orthopedist. Additionally, the participant will use these improved skills to assist with treating and/or referring atraumatic musculoskeletal conditions pertaining to musculoskeletal infections and pediatric rheumatology.
Target Audience

Learning Objectives
- Recognize pediatric orthopedic conditions requiring immediate referral for evaluation and intervention and those which may safely be managed in the primary care provider' office.
- Employ pediatric orthopaedic examination skills and apply improved diagnostic skills towards the management of common orthopaedic problems that present to the pediatrician and/or family practitioner
- Employ improved diagnostic skills in atraumatic musculoskeletal conditions including musculoskeletal infection and pediatric rheumatology
