Thoracic Spine 105: Clinical Miscellaneous / 1 Credit

Reviews Included:

1. Immediate Effects of Thoracic Spine Thrust Manipulation on Neurodynamic Mobility +MP3 
2. Cost-effectiveness of Chiropractic vs. Self-Management for Non-Coronary Acute Chest Pain +MP3
3. Efficiency of Corrective Exercise Interventions on Thoracic Hyper-Kyphosis Angle +MP3
4. Cerebral Hemodynamic Responses to Pain Following Thoracic Manipulation in Subjects with Neck Pain –
5. RCT +MP3
6. Peripheral Response to Cervical or Thoracic Spinal Manual Therapy +MP3 

Learning Objectives:

1. Compare the immediate effects of thoracic spinal manipulation and mobilization on the upper and lower limb neurodynamic mobility impairments
2. Examine the cost-effectiveness of chiropractic care for patients with non-coronary, musculoskeletal chest pain
3. Appraise the efficacy of corrective exercise interventions for reducing thoracic hyper-kyphosis
4. Evaluate activation in cortical areas associated with the pain experience in response to noxious stimuli in individuals with non-traumatic neck pain receiving thoracic thrust manipulation compared to those receiving sham manipulation
5. Assess existing evidence regarding sympathetic nervous system responses following manipulation of the cervical or thoracic spine
