Move from findings to a defensible plan.
This intermediate course gives practicing chiropractors a repeatable way to organize examination findings, form a localization hypothesis, recognize escalation cues, and communicate reasoning responsibly. Content remains subject to final faculty, reference, accessibility, and regulatory review.
By the end of the course, learners will be able to
- Apply a structured neurologic screening sequence and document relevant positive and negative findings.
- Organize examination findings into an initial functional localization hypothesis.
- Identify presentations that warrant urgent escalation or referral.
- Integrate uncertainty, competing hypotheses, and patient context into the next-step plan.
