The Pediatric Rehabilitation Medicine Fellow's National Webinar Series is hosted by Sue Mukherjee MD, FRCPC. The curriculum was originally devised by Robert Rinaldi, Margaret (Peggy) Turk, and Frank Pidcock, with input from other fellowship program directors. The goal is to provide fellow-level education on the art and science of pediatric rehabilitation medicine, and the state of pediatric rehabilitation research in various topic areas. The organizers appreciate the AAPM&R Medical Education Committee's cooperation in providing this access to the archived Webinars to fellows, residents and AAPM&R members.
This session addresses ways in which technology can enhance rehabilitation for children with orthopedic disabilities.
