  • Industrial Medicine and Acute Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation. 1. Diagnostic Testing in Industrial and Acute Musculoskeletal Injuries
    Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, 2007
    Co-Authors: Andre Panagos, Aaron W. Sable, Joseph P. Zuhosky, Robert W. Irwin, William J. Sullivan, Patrick M. Foye
    Abstract:

    Abstract Panagos A, Sable AW, Zuhosky JP, Irwin RW, Sullivan WJ, Foye PM. Industrial medicine and acute Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation. 1. Diagnostic testing in industrial and acute Musculoskeletal injuries. This self-directed learning module reviews the history and physical examination of common acute Musculoskeletal conditions that occur in the occupational setting. It is part of the industrial medicine and acute Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation study guide in the Self-Directed Physiatric Education Program for practitioners and trainees in physical medicine and Rehabilitation. This article presents case vignettes to review the diagnostic evaluation of heel pain, whiplash, repetitive strain injuries, and low back pain. Overall Article Objective To understand the important components of a history, physical examination, and concise diagnostic testing when evaluating acute industrial and Musculoskeletal injuries.

  • Industrial Medicine and Acute Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation. 2. Medications for the Treatment of Acute Musculoskeletal Pain
    Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, 2007

    Abstract:

    Abstract Sullivan WJ, Panagos A, Foye PM, Sable AW, Irwin RW, Zuhosky JP. Industrial medicine and acute Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation. 2. Medications for the treatment of acute Musculoskeletal pain. This self-directed learning module highlights medications used in the treatment of acute Musculoskeletal pain in the context of industrial Rehabilitation. It is part of the study guide on industrial Rehabilitation medicine and acute Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation in the Self-Directed Physiatric Education Program for practitioners and trainees in physical medicine and Rehabilitation. This article compares various skeletal muscle relaxants, addresses issues related to nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications, provides an algorithm for acute pain management in an injured worker, and discusses topical medications for the treatment of pain. Overall Article Objective To summarize medication options in the treatment of acute Musculoskeletal pain in the setting of injured workers.

  • Industrial medicine and acute Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation. 7. Acute industrial Musculoskeletal injuries in the aging workforce.
    Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, 2007
    Co-Authors: Joseph P. Zuhosky, Andre Panagos, Aaron W. Sable, Robert W. Irwin, William J. Sullivan, Patrick M. Foye
    Abstract:

    Abstract Zuhosky JP, Irwin RW, Sable AW, Sullivan WJ, Panagos A, Foye PM. Industrial medicine and acute Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation. 7. Acute industrial Musculoskeletal injuries in the aging workforce. This learning module highlights the unique challenges faced by physicians treating the aging workforce. It is part of the industrial medicine and acute Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation study guide in the Self-Directed Physiatric Education Program for practitioners and trainees in physical medicine and Rehabilitation. Factors intrinsic and extrinsic to the patient that increase the risk of injury with aging are outlined. Low back injuries are the most common Musculoskeletal complaint in the aging workforce. A conceptual framework for low back pain with aging, a differential diagnosis, and appropriate laboratory and radiographic investigations are also presented. Determination of causation in the setting of comorbid medical conditions and Rehabilitation strategies are reviewed. Overall Article Objective To recognize diagnosis and treatment issues that are unique to the aging worker.

  • Industrial medicine and acute Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation. 6. Upper- and lower-limb injections for acute Musculoskeletal injuries and injured workers.
    Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, 2007
    Co-Authors: Patrick M. Foye, Andre Panagos, Aaron W. Sable, Joseph P. Zuhosky, William J. Sullivan, Robert W. Irwin
    Abstract:

    Abstract Foye PM, Sullivan WJ, Sable AW, Panagos A, Zuhosky JP, Irwin RW. Industrial medicine and acute Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation. 6. Upper- and lower-limb injections for acute Musculoskeletal injuries and injured workers. This self-directed study module focuses on the use of corticosteroids and other injections in the treatment of lateral epicondylitis, de Quervain's tenosynovitis, carpal tunnel syndrome, Achilles' tendinitis, and plantar fasciitis. It is part of the study guide on industrial Rehabilitation medicine and acute Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation in the Self-Directed Physiatric Education Program for practitioners and trainees in physical medicine and Rehabilitation. Overall Article Objective To review the medical literature to help clinicians make treatment decisions regarding corticosteroid and other injections in the upper and lower limbs in injured workers.

  • Industrial Medicine and Acute Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation. 4. Interventional Procedures for Work-Related Cervical Spine Conditions
    Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, 2007
    Co-Authors: Robert W. Irwin, Andre Panagos, Joseph P. Zuhosky, William J. Sullivan, Patrick M. Foye, Aaron W. Sable
    Abstract:

    Abstract Irwin RW, Zuhosky JP, Sullivan WJ, Panagos A, Foye PM, Sable AW. Industrial medicine and acute Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation. 4. Interventional procedures for work-related cervical spine conditions. This self-directed learning module outlines the use of interventional techniques in the treatment of neck pain with and without referred pain into the arm. It is part of the supplement on industrial Rehabilitation medicine and acute Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation in the Self-Directed Physiatric Education Program for practitioners and trainees in physical medicine and Rehabilitation. This article specifically focuses on interventions used to diagnose or treat the conditions commonly seen in patients with neck pain or referred pain into the upper limb. Techniques reviewed include the use of botulinum toxin injections in the treatment of myofascial pain, cervical zygapophyseal joint injections and radiofrequency neuroablation in the treatment of posterior column disorders, and epidural steroid injections in the treatment of cervical radicular and referred upper-limb pain. Overall Article Objective To give an overview of the current state of the art regarding diagnostic and nonsurgical invasive treatment procedures for neck pain with and without referred upper-limb pain.
