The Royal College of Chiropractors CPD Event – Cervical Spine Manipulation: Caution and Contraindictations, and how to manage them

EVENT OUTLINE –

A case-based presentation based on real incidents that did not go ‘according to plan’. In this workshop, we will review some misdiagnoses, cases of poor management and near misses.

LEARNING OUTCOMES

• Appropriately manage a patient whose left shoulder pain and neck pain is actually a heart attack.
• Recognise when someone has cervical cord compression and avoid causing further injury.
• More confidently assess which of your patients has an increased stroke risk,
• How to incorporate these assessments into your usual clinical routine in order to increase the safety of your practice.
