Then your next patient with a similar presentation struggles to get better, making frustratingly slow progress or has a flare up every time you think you're making progress!

Whether you’re experienced or newly qualified, keeping up with the evidence and achieving consistent treatment results that you're happy with can be tough!

Some patients respond to your rehab, recovering quickly from their pain and injuries, which feels great, confident you're on top of your game.

Then your next patient with a similar presentation makes slow or very little progress, and every time they try to get back to work or sport their pain flares up.

Your confidence plummets and you can feel your frustration levels rising, like you're on a clinical rollercoaster.

Or they have multiple pain areas, and just as you seem to sort out one area, another one
flares
up.

David’s story

My 53 year old patient looked at me expectantly after I finished performing my last assessment test. All I could hear was the air-conditioning, the Physio in the next treatment rooms talking to their patient about knee osteoarthritis, my breathing, and the thoughts “How can every test be painful? I’ve done a bunch of tests, and almost every single one was painful. Now what? How am I going to tell her what’s wrong with her low back, and help her get better, when I don’t have any idea?”

As a new graduate Physio I felt completely out of my depth. There were an overwhelming amount of body parts, questions to ask, and diagnoses to make.

My treatment sometimes helped and sometimes made no difference to my patients' pain. I felt great when they got better, and demoralised when patients didn't make the improvement I wanted.

I downloaded and used exercise programs from randomised control trials (RCT’s). I asked Physios I worked with for advice on assessment, treatment or specific patients, read textbooks and tried everything I learned with patients.

Conferences, weekend courses and evening lectures popped onto my radar. I enrolled on, and then started organising continuing education courses..

Adding all these tools to my toolbox helped improve my treatment results, which built my confidence, but I knew there was still so much to learn.

One major challenge I faced was trying to stay up to date while living on the Central Coast of NSW, a regional area that’s a couple of hours from the closest face to face continuing education courses in Sydney.

One night in the winter of 2009 I travelled to Sydney with a couple of Physio friends for a one hour evening lecture on foot and ankle pain. The lecture was good, we had takeaway for dinner, and got home at 11pm after a 6 hour round trip.

Four to six hour round trips for continuing education didn’t seem like a sustainable, effective way to stay up to date.

There had to be a better way to stay up to date with a lot less travel.

I started working on solving this issue, creating and launching Clinical
Edge online education and the Physio Edge podcast in 2010. I really wanted to make it easy
for Physios to access the best Physiotherapists & presenters, stay up to date with the
latest evidence and develop practical skills that could be used with patients immediately.

Leading Physiotherapists and Physical therapists from around the world recorded webinar and video presentations for Clinical Edge online education, and interviews for the Physio Edge podcast.

I loved recording the Physio Edge podcast, and with more than 4 million podcast downloads to date, I’ve really enjoyed sharing clinical info with therapists all over the world.

Our Clinical Edge members loved the quality, practical nature, and ease of access of our online presentations, and I got a real feeling of satisfaction from receiving emails like this one from Tracey:

I knew that to ensure all our online presentations were current, evidence-based and clinically effective, get the most clinically relevant info from guests during podcasts, and improve my ability to successfully treat complex patients, it was time to boost my clinical reasoning and skills.

It was time for me to complete formal post-graduate Uni qualifications, and I enrolled in the Griffith University Masters of Musculoskeletal & Sports Physiotherapy. Over 2015 and 2016 I spent 30 hours or more each week completing my Masters, from home and on campus, while running Clinical Edge and a busy patient caseload, which was challenging and extremely rewarding at the same time. When adding up the costs of Uni fees, travel, accommodation and time off work, I invested somewhere around $100,000.00AUD and thousands of hours into the two year program.

Throughout my post-graduate studies, including clinical placements at the University clinic, our supervisors tested, pulled apart and helped reshape our clinical reasoning and knowledge. With both distance education and on-campus blocks each year, my clinical skills and results developed significantly. My new skills, knowledge and reasoning made treating patients really enjoyable. I looked forward to the challenge of treating complex patients, asked better questions, simplified my objective assessment and clearly understood the results of every test I performed. My patients got better results, and I felt a lot more satisfied at the end of the week.

I want you to feel that way too. To enjoy treating complex patients, asking great questions that guide your assessment, for your assessment results to be clear and guide your treatment. To give your patients clear guidance on how long their injury will take to get better, and enjoy the satisfaction that comes from great treatment results and helping patients get back to the activities they love.

Formal postgraduate musculoskeletal training can be great, however most of us have family, work or other commitments that can make it almost impossible to find the time and resources to complete postgraduate musculoskeletal training.
