peaceloveandPA Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 What are some good ortho reads/ resources?! Just general... Nothing too specialized. I suck at it and I'm in primary care, so I need to not suck at it. Seeing "knee pain" on my schedule makes me cringe. Much appreciated knowledgeable PAs.

jwells78 Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Believe it or not you can find some excellent reads/ demos on youtube of all places.. Especially if knees and shoulders arent your thing. Found some some great stuff on there from a few top tier medical school/ ortho folks. Then there is always "Wheeless," be it online or in print Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

discogenic Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 What's the word on Orthobullets? Worthwhile site? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smrtmom1 Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 My doc showed me an AWESOME app...CORE. It has all the major joints, tests needed for that joint, then links to youtube videos that have been screened as accurate on how to do the tests and what the responses of those tests mean. It is not cheap. It's like $60+, but worth every penny if you aren't comfortable with your exam skills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
