Key Topics in Orthopaedics CME

Primary care providers are often on the front lines when it comes to the initial diagnosis and management of orthopaedic problems. The University of Chicago Primary Care Orthopaedics online CME course details how to diagnose the most common conditions, with lectures and demonstration workshops covering trauma, spine, foot and ankle, pediatrics, sports medicine, upper extremity, and adult hip and knee. It will help you to better:
  • Employ physical exams to help determine next steps
  • Select optimal imaging modalities and interpret x-rays and MRIs
  • Splint and immobilize both upper and lower extremeties
  • Distinguish whether a patient should be referred to an orthopaedist
  • initiate non-operative management of common orthopaedic conditions
  • And more…

PLEASE NOTE: The credit expiration date for this program is December 31, 2023. While you will no longer be able to earn CME credits after that date, you'll have access to the content until December 31, 2025.
