David is an 11-year old male with a history of Duchene's Muscular Dystrophy (DMD). He is coming to physical therapy with complaints of difficulty with ADLs. The physical therapist is challenged with understanding the progression of this condition as well as the primary impairments in each stage.
This first episode of The NPTE Clinical Files focuses on a patient named, Betty, who fell from her bed three weeks ago. Unfortunately, she sustained a closed proximal humeral fracture and is now presenting to physical therapy for rehabilitation. The physical therapist is challenged with determining the primary impairment in this stage of healing along with selecting a safe intervention to address this impairment.
