Exploring the clinical conversation, differential diagnoses and index of suspicion within MSK assessment, we will discuss systems thinking, and MSK versus Non-MSK pathology whilst investigating the impact of rheumatology, inflammatory, vascular, neurological, orthopaedic and genetic influences.
Gut instinct, masqueraders, red flags, triage, clinical pathways and governance will be discussed in context, with consideration for rehab, social prescribing, investigations, bloods, injections & pharmacology.
First Contact Practitioners (FCP) and broader Primary Care delivery are embracing new opportunities, which also brings risk and we will look to discuss these challenges, solutions and joined up working as part of a Multi-Professional workforce.
