Course Description
We will explore how different surgical approaches influence rehabilitation, what to prioritise when patients are still house-bound, and the key elements of Phase 2 rehabilitation, including the transition to full weight-bearing gait. The course will also address regaining strength, fitness, and confidence as patients progress through Phases 2 and 3.
Common challenges and complications will be discussed, including delayed progress, suspected CRPS, wound and scar-healing concerns, and situations where there is fear of surgical compromise. The session concludes with guidance on return-to-sport decision-making and long-term functional outcomes.
Real clinical cases will be used to bring the content to life, with time allocated for discussion and questions.
This webinar was excellent. Helene discussed case studies and went into detail on treatment for different types of ankle fractures.
