Case Study Integration (CSI): Hip – Internal Snapping Hip Syndrome

Course Description

14.25 Contact hours/ 1.425 CEU’s – Online Course

This online self-paced course provides the learner with keys and steps to solve a complex patient case of internal snapping hip and greater trochanteric pain syndrome. The case examines advanced concepts in anatomy and pathology specific to the history, clinical diagnosis, and differential diagnoses. Extensive instruction is provided around a comprehensive plan of care that includes soft tissue and joint mobilization, dry needling, and sensorimotor control. Special topics include 1) evidence plus in conservative management of the pelvic deltoid and functional implications, as well as 2) biopsychosocial approach to communication for building rapport, compliance, and optimal outcomes.

 Target Group: PT, PTA, ATC

Educational Level: Intermediate

Course Outline

Objectives and Goals

By the end of the course, the participant will be able to:

  • Analyze patient history, based on pathoanatomy and biomechanics of the hip and pelvic ring to formulate a working hypothesis of pathology prior to initiating the clinical examination.
  • Establish a sound clinical diagnosis for physical therapy by thorough interpretation of clinical examination findings.
  • Select specific clinical tests that are the most informative for confirming diagnosis, causal factor(s), and perpetuator(s) in a patient with groin and buttock pain.
  • Create a comprehensive plan of care that includes all the following: soft tissue and joint specific manual therapy, dry needling, and appropriate sensorimotor control strategies focused on lower extremity control of motion and load.
  • Prioritize selective functional testing that supports the specific exercise program prescribed for a patient with hip pain and symptoms of popping.
  • Practice evidence-based psychosocial approaches, to engage and promote the patient-clinician relationship that leads to building rapport, optimal compliance, and better functional and clinical outcomes.
  • Examine a patient’s condition and the contributions of a history of high impact loading and repeated micro-trauma, as well as previous musculoskeletal injuries in the same kinetic chain including the femur, knee and ankle.
  • Apply a multifocal approach to healing by recommending strategies for optimal sleep, hydration, nutrition and creating a sense of well-being.
