Course Description:
Persistent pain, or pain that exceeds typical tissue healing time, is said to be prevalent in the pediatric population and may be underreported. There is limited knowledge of conservative management in the treatment of pediatric patients with persistent pain. This course will review nonmechanical factors that may affect a child’s expression of pain. Additionally, this course will review how to appropriately assess pain in a pediatric patient and discuss different treatment approaches including graded motor imagery, graded exposure, and graded exercises. This course intends to increase the practitioner’s clinical reasoning when working with a pediatric patient with persistent pain.
