Pediatric Foot and Ankle Deformity Management with Serial Casting - Telluride
Please note that your housing choice is a request, not a guarantee. We will do our best to assign you to the condo of your choice on a rolling basis.
Registration price will increase to $2,200 USD on March 10, 2024.
We offer a $150 discount for team members. If you're bringing a team member, please let us know by way of the form below.
We require a minimum of four attendees to hold a session.
Six spots are sold out.
In this practice-changing course — limited to six attendees, and held in the off-season in Telluride, Colorado from April 21–26, 2024 — common developmental foot deformities are identified and described in terms of plane-based anatomical components.
Musculoskeletal assessment procedures are reviewed as the findings lead the clinician to a systematic clinical decision-making process regarding orthotic design in terms of desired load-bearing foot and limb joint alignment, the magnitude of segment enclosure, degrees of freedom provided or restrained, and posting options.
Soft-tissue extensibility findings are also used in the documentation of the effects of assorted orthotic intervention strategies.

Lab sessions feature closely-supervised trials of several ankle and foot assessment procedures, with findings applied to orthotic posting and design.
Materials will be provided for an introductory practice lab on undertaking on-site posting trials to preview effects of proposed orthotic modifications, and for a day of training in fabrication of two types of below-knee cast: plaster and SoftCast combination and FlexCast.
New in 2024: You'll receive a flexible skeletal foot to use while reviewing prereadings; it's yours to keep.

The Classroom Condo is where we set up the classroom and lab areas in the living room for the duration of the course (and give the residents a housing discount, naturally).
The Residence-Only Condo is where the only scheduled activities are a couple of group dinners hosted by us - otherwise, it's your 'quiet space'.
