Managing Medically Complex Children in a Mobile Physical Therapy Setting
This introductory course provides pediatric physical therapists with foundational knowledge and practical considerations for delivering physical therapy services to medically complex children in home and community-based settings. Clinicians will explore common medical conditions, equipment, and healthcare technologies encountered in mobile practice, including tracheostomies, ventilators, feeding tubes, orthotics, and positioning devices. The course will discuss safety considerations, caregiver collaboration, environmental adaptations, and strategies for integrating therapy into daily routines. Participants will gain increased confidence in evaluating, planning, and implementing physical therapy interventions for medically complex pediatric patients outside of traditional clinical settings.

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.

Moving Forward with Peripheral Arterial Disease: Differential Diagnosis and Evidence-Based Exercise Prescription
While not always the primary diagnosis, peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a comorbidity that can limit a patient's ability to maximize independence. It is crucial for therapists across the healthcare continuum to understand the nuances of this condition, given that a cornerstone of its treatment is a structured walking program. This course provides essential insights into the differential diagnosis and evidence-based management of PAD. This course was designed for an interprofessional audience.
