In addition to our review on the current diagnosis and management of osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures, we bring you a new guideline regarding neoplastic vertebral compression fractures! It was a pleasure working with my colleagues at NASS!

The North American Spine Society’s (NASS) Evidence-Based Clinical Guideline for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Adults with Neoplastic Vertebral Fractures features evidence-based recommendations for diagnosing and treating adult patients with neoplastic vertebral fractures. The guideline is intended to reflect contemporary treatment concepts for neoplastic vertebral fractures as reflected in the highest quality clinical literature available on this subject as of October 2020

SPINE PHYSICAL THERAPY FELLOWSHIP

Low back and neck pain are common causes of disability world-wide. Spine pain is often poorly recognized and managed, leading to the development of chronic pain as well as overutilization of imaging, medication, surgery and specialist office visits. Since most spine pain can be managed conservatively, there is a need for primary care healthcare professionals who possess skills in early recognition and appropriate management of spine pain to provide improved patient outcomes and decrease healthcare costs.

The mission of our Spine Physical Therapy Fellowship is to graduate advanced practitioners of spine physical therapy specialty practice who will express their education through excellence and leadership in the practice and teaching of clinical skills, expand the body of knowledge by participating in and/or conducting and disseminating clinically relevant research, and make a lasting contribution to society through service to their community and profession.

Application deadline is March 31. Interviews will be held in April. Applicants should apply at the RF-PTCAS Portal. Make sure to indicate you are applying for the USC Spine Physical Therapy Fellowship.

Not sure why the USC Spine PT Fellowship program and myself are listed under the definition of physical therapy in the dictionary … but I’ll take it…

Application cycle is now open for next year!!! Questions?? Feel free to contact me!

Do you always ask about head trauma after a fall? How about when a patient says they have already seen a provider about this issue before coming to see you?
