This week we are back with another pathology, Peripheral Arterial Disease, to continue our cardiovascular series.

We'd highly recommend checking out the clinical handbook "Mind the Gap" which highlights how clinical signs and symptoms can appear differently on black and brown skin, essential reading for any clinician: https://www.blackandbrownskin.co.uk/mindthegap

October 16, 2022 Ep 61 - Solo Practitioner Safety
We've just had a weekend at uni so feeling slight delirious with brains full of information! This week we talk about our experience of uni this weekend including working on the occipitoatlanto joint, starting to think about our final project for research, pain science and rehab lessons. We also chat about our time in clinic this week. Our main focus today is on solo practitioner safety. Whether you are an osteopath or other healthcare practitioner that hires a space and works alone, then safety is a big consideration. We talk about some of the things to be aware of, along with a few tips to keep yourself safe.

October 08, 2022 EP 60: Cardiovascular Disease - Atherosclerosis
This week we are back on the pathology / pathophysiology train. We will be exploring pathologies from a more clinical context as this is what will help support us with our studies (and hopefully yours) going forward.

We start off with atherosclerosis, which is the process of depositing lipids in the artery walls and hardening of these walls which in turn can cause cardiovascular disease. We discuss the risk factors, co-morbidities, clinical signs and symptoms, prevention and treatment.
