Recognizing and Managing Concussions
Northeastern Physical Therapy Club Evening Lecture Series
February 28, 2012 6:00 – 8:00pm
To Register

There has been much attention in recent years to the topic of concussions, especially in youth sports.  Often, concussions go undiagnosed and untreated which can lead to serious long term issues. This presentation will include a review of signs and symptoms, early management, methods of assessment, and care for those individuals who experience prolonged symptoms.  The topics of prevention, research, and other related medical conditions will be discussed.  The goal of this presentation is to provide useful information regarding concussions that can be put to use immediately in educating others.

Course Description:
Pain and dysfunction involving the temporomandibular joint(s) (TMJ) and/or masticatory muscles are collectively referred to as a temporomandibular disorder (TMD). TMD is a common source of jaw, headaches and orofacial pain and contributes to functional limitations associated with chewing, talking and yawning. An overview of clinical anatomy of the TMJ will precede a discussion of the common diagnostic subsets of TMD. An evidence based examination to diagnose and treat the common diagnostic subsets of TMD will be discussed and practiced in lab. Cervical spine influences on the management of TMD and headache will be highlighted. The rationale for oral appliances fabricated by the dentist will be discussed. Surgical and non surgical treatments for disc displacements will be reviewed. Post surgical physical therapy management of the TMJ will be discussed. The team approach between the physical therapy and dental professions will be highlighted throughout the course.
