Through the use of stem cell therapy, regenerative medicine is a revolutionary approach to restore, rejuvenate, and regenerate cells, tissue, or organs that are diseased or injured. The fourth module of the Fellowship in Stem Cell Therapies will provide a detailed foundation regarding the treatment of musculoskeletal and neurodegenerative conditions utilizing various stem cell sources. An overview of each disease condition and current standard of care will be examined. A comprehensive analysis of current research regarding these treatments will be presented as well as best practices for in-office applications will be discussed, as applicable.

Objectives:

Upon completion of the module, the participant will:

  • Review the disease background, statistics, etiology, current standard of care, and issues/controversies surrounding current treatments for many musculoskeletal conditions, including:
    • Osteoarthritis
    • Articular cartilage defects
    • Meniscus tears
    • Duchenne muscular dystrophy
    • Degenerative disc disease
    • Rotator cuff injuries
    • Non-union bone fractures
    • Tendon injuries
    • Ligament injuries
    • Joint injuries
  • Discuss the mechanism of action, structure, and function of cartilage regeneration and bone regeneration
  • Analyze the various cell therapies available for musculoskeletal regeneration, including induced pluripotent, umbilical, mesenchymal stem cells, and biomaterials
  • Possess a working knowledge of clinical studies published outlining the treatment of musculoskeletal conditions
  • Participate in interactive case study sessions to successfully provide treatment strategies for musculoskeletal conditions, including patient selection, diagnosis, risks, and benefits
  • Analyze the benefits of using platelet rich plasma (PRP) in orthopedic treatments
  • Gain expert knowledge regarding the disease background, statistics, etiology, current standard of care, and issues/controversies surrounding current treatments for many  neurological and neurodegenerative conditions, including:
    • Parkinson’s disease
    • Dementia
    • Alzheimer’s disease
    • Cerebral palsy
    • Stroke
    • Traumatic Brain Injury
    • Autism
    • Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)
    • Huntington’s disease
    • Spinal cord injury
    • Neuropathy
  • Review the structure, function, and mechanisms governing neural cell regeneration
  • Discuss the cell therapies available for neurological and neurodegenerative conditions utilizing various cell types (embryonic, umbilical, fetal, mesenchymal stem cells, etc.) and delivery methods available
  • Analyze current scientific research outlining the treatment of neurological and neurodegenerative conditions utilizing stem cells
  • Participate in interactive case study sessions to successfully formulate treatment plans for neurodegenerative and neurological conditions including patient selection, diagnosis, risks, and benefits
