Evidence-Based Respiratory Muscle Training in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
This course equips interdisciplinary rehabilitation professionals with a practical, evidence-based framework for safely integrating Respiratory Muscle Strength Training (RMST) into Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) care. Dispelling historical concerns of "overwork weakness," the session explores how targeted Expiratory Muscle Strength Training (EMST) preserves respiratory function, enhances swallow kinematics, and fortifies vital airway defense mechanisms without accelerating disease progression. Clinicians will bridge the gap between research and clinical application by mastering pressure-threshold device selection, resistance calibration, and the validated "Rule of Fives" dosing protocol. Ultimately, this course empowers therapists to confidently design, progress, and monitor home-based respiratory training programs that maximize patient independence and optimize long-term respiratory health. This course was designed for an interprofessional audience.

Navigating Polypharmacy and Multi-Morbidity: A PT's Guide to Exercise Optimization and Patient Management
Seventy-three percent of older adults have two chronic conditions, and 36% have four or more, leading to management with polypharmacy. One in 5 older adults uses 5 or more prescription medications and is taking a medication that adversely affects a co-existing condition. Polypharmacy bidirectionally impacts physical function and, therefore, physical activity. Adults who participate in aerobic and strengthening activity recommendations have a greatly reduced risk for all-cause mortality. Physical therapists who understand how the movement system interacts with multimorbidity and polypharmacy are uniquely qualified to guide complex patients through safe and effective exercise programs to improve physical function and reduce mortality. This session will use the ACSM exercise recommendation guidelines to consider each multimorbidity’s effect on the exercise prescription, balance polypharmacy considerations, and maximize patient safety and exercise dosing for meaningful results. Using exemplar cases, the learner will be challenged to recognize patterns of multimorbidity and pharmacotherapy, discuss the role of the physical therapist within the multidisciplinary team and in patient communication, and optimize patient outcomes. The Beers List of potentially inappropriate medications to be avoided in older adults will be incorporated, and a schema will be provided to integrate advanced clinical reasoning into the care of complex patients.

Rheumatoid Arthritis: Tips and Tricks for the PT and OT Provider
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is more than a painful joint condition. It is a systemic inflammatory disease that can affect strength, endurance, mobility, fatigue, participation, and long-term health. This course gives PT and OT practitioners a practical, evidence-informed framework for treating adults with RA across different levels of disease activity and function. Participants will review the rehabilitation implications of contemporary RA management and learn how to recognize common clinical concerns, modify treatment during symptom flares, prescribe and progress exercise, address fatigue, and incorporate joint-protection, energy-conservation, self-management, and participation strategies. Case examples and practical “tips and tricks” will help clinicians translate current recommendations into day-to-day therapy decisions. This course is designed for an interprofessional audience.
