What You’ll Learn:

A foundational overview of upper extremity anatomy in pediatric patients, along with assessment techniques and treatment approaches tailored to this population.

Why It Matters:

Pediatric patients aren't just small adults — growth plates, developing bone structure, and unique injury patterns mean upper extremity injuries in children require a different lens than adult care. Understanding these differences helps you assess more accurately and choose treatment approaches suited to a still-developing musculoskeletal system.
