SUMMARY:Nottingham Upper Limb Injection Therapy Module
UID:129
DESCRIPTION: \n\nModule Submission Document for\n\nB94027 Contemporary Practices in Injection Therapy (Upper Limb)\n\nTotal Credits: 20\n\nLevel 4\n\nThe dates for March 2021 are:\n\n1st\, 2nd\, 8th\, 9th\, 15\, 16th March with practical exams on 26th OR 27th April 2021\n\nSession Availability: Taught every year\n\nPrerequisite(s):\n\nStudents must be show evidence of advanced practitioner level anatomy\, musculoskeletal assessment\, clinical reasoning and differential diagnosis skills. Evidence will be provide in the form of 2 sealed anonymous references from their employer and /or qualified practitioners.\n\n\nCorequisite(s):\n\nExpected Number of Students Taking Module: 24\n\nIs This a Cap?: Y\n\nRestriction for Cap: Number of students that can be safely supported during practical sessions by 2 lecturers\n\nTarget Students: medical practitioners and nonmedical practitioners who have approval from their appropriate regulatory body and/or employer practising in the field of benign upper limb neuromusculoskeletal disorders or other acceptable related field.\n\nSummary of Content: This module will examine and evaluate the theoretical principles underpinning contemporary practices in injection therapy. Emphasis will be on pharmacology\, patient selection and the application of injection therapy for patients with upper limb benign musculoskeletal disorders. The conceptual basis of the therapy will be explored and a review of the literature undertaken based on documented research evidence. The practical focus will be on the enhancement and development of psychomotor\, communication and presentation skills.\n\nAssessment Details:\n\nAssessment\n\nType                     Percentage                                        Requirements Length\n\nExam 1 50% Practical examination : injection technique joint.              1 Hour\n\nCoursework 1       0%              One injection log sheet for minimum of 10injections.\n\nCoursework 2       50%            3\,000 word case study.\n\nModule Convenor:  Dr C Diver\, Health Sciences\n\n \n\nAdministration Details: Lisa Burr\n\nStudent Services Administrator\n\nCity Hospital Student Services\n\nThe University of Nottingham\n\nClinical Sciences Building\n\nCity Hospital\n\nNottingham\, NG5 1PB\n\nt: +44 (0) 115 82 31927\n\ne:  lisa.burr@nottingham.ac.uk\n\nRelationship Subject School Percentage of Contribution is administered by Physiotherapy Health Sciences 100%\n\nAims: The module aims to advance the students’ knowledge of the theoretical bases pertaining to injection therapy in the management of upper limb musculoskeletal (MSK) disorders. It aims to develop the students’ ability to evaluate the evidence upon which established practices are based. It aims to facilitate the anatomical and clinical reasoning skills that underpin injection therapy. It aims to develop students psychomotor skills and the safe practice of injection techniques.\n\nLearning Outcomes: The students should be able to: Discuss the evidence for injection therapy in the management of upper limb MSK disorders; Explain the pharmacology of drugs commonly used in injection therapy; State the indications\, contraindications and side effects of injection therapy; Understand and interpret examination findings of patients presenting with upper limb musculoskeletal disorders\, in the selection of injection therapy as a preferred treatment option; Clearly define the appropriate aftercare for patients receiving injection therapy; Intellectual Skills The student should be able to:\n\nDemonstrate advanced clinical reasoning through a synthesis of practical\, theoretical and experiential learning;\n\nCritically evaluate accepted theories and practice surrounding injection therapy;\n\nReflect on\, and evaluate\, ones own abilities and the impact of the module on clinical practice;\n\nAnalyse and interpret research findings in the management of patients\, with upper limb musculoskeletal dysfunction\, with injection therapy;\n\nProfessional Practical Skills\n\nThe student should be able to:\n\nAdminister upper limb corticosteroid and local anaesthetic peripheral intraand extraarticular injections safely and effectively;\n\nPerform joint aspiration safely and effectively;\n\nBe able to manage side effects of injection therapy safely and effectively;\n\nCommunicate using written\, verbal and nonverbal modes;\n\nUse information technology to identify and access information.\n\nTransferable (key) Skills The student should be able to: Demonstrate time management and workload planning; Use information technology to search for relevant literature\, source information and prepare presentations; Demonstrate the application of a variety of communication skills e.g. patient interaction\, presentations\, written reports; Display skills of critical analysis\, problem solving and reflective practice.\n\n \n\n
