Presentation by Professor Eamonn Delahunt
​
Current management strategies for acute lateral ankle sprains are woefully inadequate and physiotherapists are partly culpable … hence, the need for the Rehabilitation Oriented ASsessmenT (ROAST) consensus statement of the International Ankle Consortium

Learning outcomes:
  • To develop a comprehensive understanding of the theory underpinning the development of this new consensus statement
  • To be able to perform a pragmatic structured clinical assessment for individuals presenting with an acute ankle sprain injury
  • To be able to implement the clinical assessment components of Rehabilitation Oriented ASsessmenT with the objective of using these to guide the development to patient-specific rehabilitation
