#7453 How Can Rehab Clinicians Manage Inflammation and Autoimmunity in RA, Multiple Sclerosis & Parkinson’s Disease

#7453 How Can Rehab Clinicians Manage Inflammation and Autoimmunity in RA, Multiple Sclerosis & Parkinson’s Disease is organized by MotivationsCEU.

Description:
While rehab clinicians work with patients with inflammation, the presence of systemic inflammation is a very different and of unique importance. There is also a rise in autoimmune disorders, and a growing link with inflammation in furthering the importance of having a better understanding of the physiology of both.

You will gain insight into the interplay of inflammation, the immune system, and the autonomic nervous system. This seminar will emphasize the impact on mobility, pain, edema, endurance, fatigue, neuroplasticity, and more. We will investigate cytokines in COVID-19 and autoimmunity and inflammation in Rheumatoid Arthritis, Multiple Sclerosis and Parkinson's Disease.

Objectives:
Upon completion of this course, the participant will be able to:

• Understand cytokines and how they impact on inflammation, immunity in adults
• Understand the principles and application of neuroplasticity
• Determine key interventions to reduce stress, sleep deprivation, dehydration, fatigue
• Appraise, accommodate, and treat rehabilitation challenges such as brain fog, tachycardia, POTS, and immune system challenges to improve client participation in activities and treatment
