Concussion &Traumatic Brain Injury

*CE Credits are issued for Doctors of Chiropractic only.

*The following states are pending approval: Florida, Oklahoma, Arizona, California, District of Columbia, Hawaii, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, Pennsylvania, Texas.

This 10-hour course covers how to understand traumatic brain injury in concussion. When there is a head injury inclusive of direct trauma or coup-contrecoup type trauma the brain can sustain a myriad of injuries. The primary spine care provider must understand the signs and symptoms for early detection as this can have either pathological cognitive sequella or death at the most extreme. This course covers the clinical examination, advanced imaging and advanced neurodiagnostic testing to conclusively diagnose traumatic brain injuries and any necessary triage. Also, this program emphasizes the urgency of triage pending a clinical evaluation.

Part 1: Traumatic Brain Injury and Concussion Overview:.  This section is an in-depth overview of traumatic brain injury in concussion. It discusses that all brain injuries are traumatic and dispels the myth of a “mild traumatic brain injury.” Also, this covers triage protocols and the potential sequela of patients with traumatic brain injuries.

Part 2: Head Trauma and Traumatic Brain Injury Part 1: This section discusses gross traumatic brain injuries from trauma and significant bleeding with both epidural and subdural hematomas. There are numerous case studies reviewed inclusive of neurosurgical intervention and postsurgical outcomes.

Part 3: Head Trauma and Traumatic Brain Injury Part 2: This section continues with multiple case studies of gross traumatic brain injuries from trauma requiring neurosurgical intervention and also discusses recovery sequela based upon the significance of brain trauma. This module also concludes with concussion protocols in traumatic brain injury short of demonstrable bleeding on advanced imaging.

Part 4: Concussion And Electroencephalogram Testing: This this section covers concussion etiology and cognitive sequela where gross bleeding has not been identified on advanced imaging. It discusses the significance of electroencephalogram testing in determining brain function and pathology (if present). This module also covers the understanding of waveforms in electroencephalogram testing in both normal and abnormal scenarios.

Part 5: Concussion And Electroencephalogram Testing Pathological Results: This module covers amplitude, conduction and conduction delays as sequela to traumatic brain injury to diagnose concussion and traumatic brain injury in the absence of gross bleeding and advanced imaging. This section covers electroencephalograms and event-related potentials which measures the brain response that is a direct result of specific sensory or motor events. It is a stereotype electrophysiological response to a stimulus and provides a noninvasive means of evaluating brain function. In this module multiple case studies are discussed with ensuing triage protocols pending the results.

The Mini-Fellowship in MSK MRI Extremity is for those doctors who have completed the MRI extremity program and want to advance their training. This program is a hybrid of both live training (one-on-one) with an MSK Radiologist who teaches the Fellowship program at the State University of New York at Stony Brook, School of Medicine after a rigorous course of study of research findings in MRI applications, diagnostics, technology and co-morbidities.

This 3-part program includes 8 hours of live training in New York with Kevin Baker MD, MSK Radiology. This course offers 40 chiropractic continuing education credits recognized by Cleveland University-Kansas City, Chiropractic and Health Sciences and PACE Recognized by the Federation of Chiropractic Licensing Boards. The course is administered through the Academy of Chiropractic. 

PART 1 Research Topics:                                                                                                                                                                  22 Hours

The candidate must study 15 contemporary research articles related to MSK Radiology related to every joint in the body outside of brain and spine and take 15 examinations related to the above topics. 

PART 2 Live Study:                                                                                                                                                                           8 Hours

The candidate must sit (either in person or virtual) before Kevin Baker MD, MSK Radiology and review 60 MRI sequences (over 2500 images) and identify pathology in every joint in the body inclusive of normal vs. fracture vs. metastasis vs. various types of arthritis.

Other Topics Taught: 

1) Arthritis - Inflammatory and Degenerative
2) Advanced cartilage assessment
3) Rotator Cuff Tears
4) Labral tears (shoulder and hip)
5) Tendon injuries and degeneration
6) Meniscal tears
7) Ligamentous injuries
8) Common fractures
9) Sports related injury patterns
10) Plantar fasciitis

PART 3 Publish a Case Report:                                                                                                                                                       10 Hours 

The candidate must publish an original "case report" where extremity MRI has impacted either a diagnosis, prognosis or treatment plan in clinical practice. This paper must include images, appropriate references and will be peer-reviewed by a panel of peers for acceptance. The Academy of Chiropractic will be responsible for having the paper published. The candidate must author the article and utilize the following guideline:

Case reports present the details of real patient cases from medical or clinical practice. Cases may contribute significantly to the existing knowledge on the field or showcase fewer novel results. The report is expected to discuss the signs, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment of a disease. A goal of case reports is to make other researchers aware of the possibility that a specific phenomenon might occur.

Case reports are limited to 20 references and contain the following sections: abstract, introduction, case presentation, discussion, conclusions, references.

*Please note this course is only approved for 5.5 CE credits in the state of CA.

The neurology of ligament pathology is an inclusive course covering ligaments and spinal disc (also ligaments). As discs are integral in spinal biomechanics, we discuss the role that a herniated or bulged disc plays in aberrant biomechanics and when the patient can undergo corrective care vs. management of care. The course also explains why long-termed chiropractic care is clinically indicated. 

This course details the roles of mechanoreceptors, proprioceptors and nociceptors in a pathological spine and one that is undergoing compensation as sequellae to trauma and tissue pathology. This course prepares you to be expert on spinal pathology and the mechanisms of compensation in addition to the why a patient “might” need lifetime care, no different than the diabetic, who needs lifetime care. In addition, this course will prepare you for patients who have “shifting pain” as a natural course of compensation.
