2021 Learner review of our Workshop
|
"It was great!"
"The instructor, case studies, and pictures" "I appreciated the pictures and the personal stories for application." "review of Botox pathophysiology" "how to relate to practice with examples, with basic understanding to build on symptoms and signs to aid in formulation of differential diagnosis." "more structured discussion of each joint, US placement, & needle placement, with slides for home references." "Photos of ...pathology" "hands on" "The presenter had patient examples to correlate with presented topics. He was also pleasant and made the lectures fun, while learning." "pictures explaining the material with real life stories, hands on training, practicing Botox and joint injections, experiment with ultrasound." "Botox lectures and breakdown to understand other pathophysiological diseases." CME review August 2021 |
"Instructor was great!"
"Learned so much and feel confident to start injection now." "Hands on practice and clinical application scenarios." "Hands on injection practice was great." "Case studies and discussion was very helpful." "Presentation was great." "Instructor open to questions!" "Great refresher course." "I feel I could practice immediately." "Discussion of the Botox material" "interactive!" "Loved the case studies+pathophysiology." Suggestions for improvement: "later start time, may be 8am." "more time devoted to U/S." "some individual 1:1 ultrasound opportunity" "volunteer patients to try injection on" "increase time for ultrasound lecture" CME review - June 4-5th, 2021 |
"Thorough differential diagnosis at various MSK complaints + hands-on experience."
"I have been able to successfully insert the needle into each model and I am feeling very confident that I can perform on clients." "Very informative!" "Clinical correlation with excellent didactic and procedure instruction." "Relevant topic, ...good about case study." "the case study presented and the picture to help (to) understand more." "The case material was setup well." "The course was a great review of anatomica structure. The instructor was engaging and had a wealth of knowledge. Enjoyed the entire course." "It was awesome the way it is. I will definitely refer others to attend." "Hands on activity." "Lecture and hands-on activity was provided." "I really like the work dynamics, and small group of students." "Excellent course. Very well run and instructional. Lecturer was very enthusiastic, helpful and attentive. Very worthwhile experience. " "I really enjoyed the clinical vignettes and review of pathophysiology of botox." CME review - March, 2021 |

Our CME workshop consists of two parts. First, we will learn Botox, joint, tendon, bursa, muscle injection and nerve block techniques using hands-on practice on models. Second, we will learn basic ultrasound skill and their application in Botox and orthopedic blocks.
For the injection session, we will practice joint injections and peripheral nerve blocks on our own proprietary models only. You will find that these procedures are much less formidable than they seem; with practice, they are easily learned and executed. We hope to dispel the notion that such skills are the reserved domain of a select few specialists.
For the ultrasonography session, we learn basic joint, ligament, nerve, and bursa localization technique. It is specifically designed for general practitioners, hospitalists, and primary care providers. Such US skills are desirable in joint injection, trigger points injections, nerve blocks, and vascular access.
For the Botox session, we will practice on manikins for FDA-approved Botox indications to treat migraines, cervical dystonia, spasticity of both the upper and lower extremities, wrinkles, frown lines, crow's feet, and glabellar lines.
For the didactic section, we will use correlative anatomy and pathology to facilitate understanding of signs and symptoms. These concepts will be reinforced with extensive case studies to highlight differential diagnosis, risk reduction, treatment, and complication management. We hope to build a road map for diagnosing and treating common orthopedic, neurological, spinal, and headache-related conditions. This session is optional.
Throughout the course, indication selection and complication management are emphasized. This is because complications are rare in practice; it would take a long time to encounter one, and even longer to accumulate sufficient knowledge and experience to manage them confidently. We will share such experiences from faculty who have been doing Botox, joint injections, and nerve blocks for more than fifteen years. You will review classic cases to understand how to properly select indications to minimize complications in the first place, and how to manage them if and when they do occur.
Upon completion of the course, you will be proficient with these injections on practice models.
