Saturday, January 27, 2024


9:00 am - 10:00 am

Pacific Time

Duration: 1 Hour
CEU credit: 1

Speakers:

  • Chelsey Kratter, OT/CHT

Description: This goal of this webinar is to provide an overview of the literature published over the last year in the field of hand therapy and highlight papers that are thought-provoking, interesting or relevant to the practice of hand therapy. Many therapists do not have the time or resources to read every paper that is published. Our aim is to curate the most salient ones that may be useful in clinical practice or that may inspire further study. 

Objectives:

  • Discuss updates in the literature published in hand therapy over the past year
  • Highlight interesting research on current trends and topics in the field of hand therapy
  • Promote evidence-based practice, interest in research and identify areas for further study
