This course, Don’t Misdiagnose Hypermobile Patients: Upper Cervical Instability, presented by Dr. Robert Rosenbaum, provides clinicians with critical insights into identifying and managing patients with hypermobility and conditions such as Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. Attendees will explore the prevalence of hypermobility in clinical populations, learn how to effectively utilize tools such as the Beighton score, and recognize key signs and symptoms associated with upper cervical instability.

The course emphasizes the importance of accurate assessment, including understanding radiographic indicators and neurological implications, to avoid misdiagnosis and inappropriate treatment. Participants will also gain practical guidance on when to screen for instability, how to collaborate with spine specialists, and strategies for improving patient outcomes through interdisciplinary care. By the end of this session, practitioners will be better equipped to identify complex hypermobility cases and deliver safe, informed, and patient-centered care.
