DESCRIPTION:

This program focuses on the trends in healthcare and how clinical chiropractic, based upon the evidence in the literature, fits into the national trends. It shows the doctor of chiropractic the critical role of compliant documentation in reputation building and to prevent adverse legal issues with complaint records. The course also covers the latest MRI spine interpretation terminology and identifies biomechanical pathology using the latest mensurating tools.

Module 1

Mark Studin DC

MRI Spine Case Review

Clinical case review of MRI's including sagittal, axial, T1, T2, STIR, and proton density sequences. The vertebrate, spinal cord, discs, nerve roots, thecal sac, posterior longitudinal ligament, epidural veins, and fat saturation pulses will be identified. Pathology will include bulges, herniations, protrusions, extrusions, myelomalacia, cord edema, and Schmorl's nodes.

Module 2

Mark Studin DC

Demonstrative Documentation Reporting

Creating documentation that is demonstrable in design to show pathology visually. How to prepare demonstrable records that are legally defensible and accurate in the description of the pathology.

Module 3

Mark Studin  DC

Don Capoferri DC

Age-Dating Herniated Disc and TRauma

Age dating herniated discs and trauma is a critical skill for an expert in spine. It combines the clinical skills of interpreting X-ray, MRI, and other imaging modalities with a clinician's understanding of joint pathology. This level of expertise is critical when collaborated with other physicians or working in the medical-legal environment as an expert. Age dating pathology is also central to creating a prognosis on your patient's recovery and must be evidence-based in rationale.

Module 4Mark Studin  DC

Stroke Evaluation and Risk Factors in a Chiropractic Practice

Diagnosing, triaging, and documenting headaches, migraines, and vascular incidents (stroke) in the primary provider's office. Imaging protocols based upon history and clinical presentation will be presented, along with analyzing imaging findings in determining the etiology. There will be an extensive question and answer session following the instructional presentation.

2023 Trends in Documentation

Evidence-Based demonstrative documentation is typically the arbiter for creating successful patient-centered collaborative care. This "reputation building" focus has already helped develop relationships with MD PCPs, MD Specialists, ERs, and Urgent Care Centers.  This demonstratively removed the Non-Specific Back Pain "Dogma" that too many have held because technology and the evidence have not supported what chiropractic has known for over a century. We now have those tools and once learned, chiropractic utilization "skyrockets because of the evidence.

Age-Dating Herniated Disc and Master-Class in Ligament Physiology

Age dating herniated discs and trauma is a critical skill for an expert in spine. It combines the clinical skills of interpreting X-ray, MRI, and other imaging modalities with a clinician's understanding of joint pathology. This level of expertise is critical when collaborated with other physicians or working in the medical-legal environment as an expert. Age dating pathology is also central to creating a prognosis on your patient's recovery and must be evidence-based in rationale. Master-Class in ligaments; anatomy, physiology, vascularization, neurological innervation, tissue repair and how they all relate to clinical practice.  Ligament pathology correlating to the mechanisms of patho-neuro-biomechanical lesions (vertebral subluxation complex). Also, how ligaments play a critical role in a chiropractic spinal adjustment and defining the chiropractic spinal adjustment mechanisms. 

Module 9Robert Peyster MD, Neuroradiology

After a physical examination, the doctor may also recommend that the patient schedule a diagnostic test, such as computed tomography, CT or CAT scan, or magnetic resonance imaging, or MRI. These tests will help the doctor pinpoint the location of the lesion and will also help assess the extent of damage the lesion has caused the brain. Documenting magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) results as the diagnostic test that produces three-dimensional, or 3D, images of the inside of the body using magnetic fields and computer technology. It shows brain tissue detail as well as the brain stem, and cerebellum (posterior brain) better than a CT scan. An MRI of the brain can help determine whether there are signs of prior mini-strokes. A medication (contrast) can also be injected to help high light structures.

Disproving Non-Specific Back Pain

Case Management documentation incorporating Spinal Biomechanics, MRI, and clinical findings when collaborating with medical specialists and lawyers. Using Case Management as the foundation for both consistent referrals and long-term forensic consulting relationships. Disproving based upon the evidence, the Dogma of “non-specific back pain.”

Module 11

Mark Studin DC
