JOSPT Cases—recognizing and acting on spinal red flags, with Dr Mike Rosenthal
Today’s episode is another JOSPT Cases cameo! Dr Mike Rosenthal, associate editor for JOSPT Cases, explains a clinical case of a patient after total hip arthroplasty with pain symptoms that don’t quite add up.
We discuss why it is important to continue red flag screening throughout care, how to frame an urgent referral, and how the imaging approach can influence health care.
There are even some bonus tips for authors who are considering submitting case studies to JOSPT Cases (https://www.jospt.org/toc/jospt-cases/current).
