Over the recent years, growing progress in the area of Advance Practice Physiotherapy in TTSH has been achieved. It has also shown to have brought considerable benefits and value to both the patients and multi-disciplinary medical team.
To perform at an advanced practice level, physiotherapists must be able to rule out potential red flags and escalate management urgently to the medical team when necessary. With physiotherapist’s knowledge of red flags limited, there is a benefit from learning from the medical profession on serious pathologies that might present as musculoskeletal conditions.
In this workshop, a comprehensive perspective on how to aappropriately identify and manage patients with red flags in the upper quadrantt will be introduced.
