About Course

Osteoarthritis is one of the most common musculoskeletal conditions encountered in clinical practice, yet effective management requires a contemporary understanding that extends beyond a purely structural view of joint degeneration. Clinicians need to understand the complex interaction between joint pathology, pain, physical function and individual patient factors when assessing and managing people with osteoarthritis.

Osteoarthritis: Pathophysiology, Clinical Assessment and Evidence-Based Management provides clinicians with an evidence-based framework for understanding, assessing and managing osteoarthritis. The course explores the pathophysiology and clinical presentation of osteoarthritis, with attention to the relationship between structural changes, symptoms and functional limitations.

Emphasis is placed on practical clinical application, equipping clinicians with strategies for comprehensive assessment, clinical decision-making and evidence-based management across different stages and presentations of osteoarthritis.
