Chiropractic, Health, Education, and Clinical Research
Moderator: Ilija Arar
Our professional knowledge of clinical and basic science principles continues to grow with newly discovered research studies. Understanding how the neuromusculoskeletal system functions helps chiropractors improve their practices and apply these principles to patient care. This session will consider presentations of current clinical, physiological, and biomechanical research and relate these findings to how we can better understand patient function and dysfunction.
Moderators: Jonathan Egan & Martha Kaeser
Chiropractic knowledge and applications to patient and population health continues to expand with new research. By exploring the findings from public and population health studies, we can better understand how chiropractic practice fits within these contexts. This session will take a deep dive into the topics related to individual and population health issues and will discuss how these findings relate to chiropractic care. Concepts such as screening and preventive measures, as well as how chiropractors can support patients’ healthy behaviors will be reviewed.
Moderators: John Mrozek and Stuart Kinsinger
The world population continues to grow and diversify, and chiropractors must be prepared for these global changes. This session will consider presentations about the preparation of chiropractors for current and future challenges in healthcare. This session will review current and new concepts related to evidence-based practices within a life-long learning paradigm for chiropractic practice.
Moderators: Celia Maguire and Stephanie Sullivan
Chiropractic care brings value to integrated healthcare settings and can expand on the value of patient care. Therefore, chiropractors practicing within the healthcare system must be fluent in evidence-based health care principles and practices. This session will discuss new findings and recent studies of chiropractic care in integrated and whole health settings and will focus on how chiropractors may best improve patient care.
Moderators: Kelly Brinkman and Clinton Daniels
Chiropractors must be prepared for typical day-to-day patient presentations but also must be knowledgeable about unusual signs and symptoms that may underly a serious or life-threatening conditions. This grand rounds presentation will discuss how chiropractors can identify uncommon or complicated patient cases and discuss what to do in these clinical situations. This session will review cases from real-life patients and discuss the outcomes of chiropractic care.
Three concurrent workshops will provide tools and tips on how to expand scholarship and research capacity, develop content to address gaps in business education for chiropractic students, and explore common challenges in training doctors of chiropractic during hands-on applied clinical laboratory settings.
