Description

Darryl is a 59-year-old male who presents the physical therapy with Class III Congestive Heart Failure. He has arrived from the inpatient unit after a severe exacerbation of his CHF but he is cleared by his M.D. for exercise. The physical therapist is challenged with understanding the pathophysiology related to congestive heart failure as well as the New York Heart Association stages. This knowledge is required in order to make sound and safe judgments regarding exercise prescription. Should we send this patient back to the physician for medical clearance or treat him? This is what we will uncover in this excellent episode based on treating Class III congestive heart failure. Are you in the free facebook group called, #smartnpteprep?

NPTE Clinical Files is a podcast from the creator of Dominating the NPTE, hosted by Kyle Rice. NPTE Clinical Files explains a true clinical scenario in the form of a mock NPTE-based question. Each question is followed by a set of answer choices, where Dr. Kyle Rice explains the right answer with a detailed rationale. Each season covers all of the major systems and topics found in physical therapy and likely to be found on an NPTE. NPTE Clinical Files gives the Physical Therapist a weekly opportunity to solve clinical puzzles while learning the latest research related to the topic.
