Rheumatology in Physiotherapy. online business

This lecture covers the diagnosis and management of Rheumatoid Arthritis in the MSK setting for Physiotherapists. We start with an overview of Rheumatology conditions and move into recognising Rheumatoid Arthritis if a patient presents in your clinic. Then discussed are the differential diagnosis and what to do upon recognition including further investigations such as imaging, bloods and onward referral. The assessment and treatment sections centre around the clinical guidelines, individualising treatments to maximise patient function and ensuring a global approach to short and long term goals is taken including general health management.
