In this Diagnosis Spotlight course, you will review the intricacies and best practices for clinical evaluation and diagnosis of frequently missed shoulder injuries: acromioclavicular joint injuries, sternoclavicular joint injuries, scapular fractures, greater tuberosity fractures, and posterior shoulder dislocations. General strategies for management of these injuries are also discussed.
As an additional resource, this course includes the Revised Safer Dx Instrument, a tool developed by the Society to Improve Diagnosis in Medicine to help identify potential diagnostic errors and guide safety improvement efforts that prevent future errors. The instrument assesses various aspects of a primary care encounter for breakdowns in the diagnostic process, and its use can help standardize the detection of diagnostic errors in primary care.
