Dr Carrie Cooper does the lead climbing and helps you belay (see what we did there?) into the world of climbing. From bouldering to sport climbing—there's no need to go free solo (ok, ok...we'll stop now) if you don't know much about climbing. JOSPT Insights has you covered. Dr Cooper discusses how climbing is like gymnastics, baseball, and rugby, with their shared hand, shoulder, and knee injuries. Some other key take-aways from the episode are how to identify weakness that climbers are so good at hiding, and how to progress a return to climb program. Hang on; it’s a good one! ------------------------------ RESOURCES Knee injuries in bouldering and rock climbing: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32004071/ Classifying and managing flexor pulley injuries: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30904240/

Health care practice is slowly transitioning from a paternalistic way of delivering care (doing to the patient) to a shared decision-making model (doing with the patient). Health systems, clinical professions and individual clinicians are at different points along the transition. As a process, shared decision-making provides a scaffold for the patient's values, preferences and circumstances to receive primacy when discussing options, benefits and risks. As a mindset, shared decision-making is a standard of excellence in clinical practice - it ensures your are focused supporting the patient to authentically engage in decisions about their health. Today, Diane Slater, physiotherapist and educator from Aalborg University, Denmark is helping you self-diagnose your shared decision-making practice. Diane shares tips for staying up-to-date with the best information to support quality shared decision-making, which she has honed through her work as a coach and mentor to musculoskeletal health practitioners.
