More than half of the people living with MS report significant disruptions in their sleep and difficulty maintaining a consistent sleep schedule. Sleep-related problems can lead to additional health issues, not to mention an overall decline in quality of life and well-being. The Director of the Sleep, Health, and Wellness Lab at the University of Kansas Medical Center Department of Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Science, Dr. Katie Siengsukon, returns to the podcast to talk about how sleep affects MS and what you can do about it. We're also sharing all the ways the Inflation Reduction Act will benefit people living with MS. And we're celebrating the MS Activists who helped push this legislation through Congress! We have some good news to share about Mark Cuban's CostPlus Drug Company. We'll give you a quick review of where to find the show notes for each episode of RealTalk MS (and why you might want to do that!) We're sharing results from a study that demonstrated an important benefit for people with primary progressive MS who were treated with diseaes-modifying therapies. We'll tell you about two scientists who identified a combination of genes that increase a woman's risk of developing MS by 20 times. And we'll remind you that Burgers to Beat MS is happening this Thursday! We have a lot to talk about! Are you ready for RealTalk MS??!

Welcome back to a NEW season of PT Elevated where we are broadening our topics to include more researchers but still focusing on topics that you can use in your clinic every day. This season we will have some of our speakers as guests who will be live in person at the EIM Align Conference this August 26-28 in Dallas, Texas. On our fourth episode of season 3, guest Rob Manske, PT, DPT, MPT, Med, SCS, ATC, CSCS, who is a Professor and former Chair in the Doctoral Physical Therapy Program at Wichita State University in Wichita, Kansas joins us. In addition to his full-time faculty appointment, Rob is a physical therapist and athletic trainer for Ascension Via Christi Health and serves as a Teaching Associate at the University of Kansas Medical Center Department of Rehabilitation Sciences in Kansas City, and the Department of Community Medicine for the Via Christi Family Practice Sports Medicine Residency Program. Most importantly Rob continues to practice weekly – spending approximately 10 hours per week treating a variety of knee and shoulder conditions! Rob graduated from WSU in 1991 with a Bachelor of Arts in Physical Education, a Master of Physical Therapy degree in 1994, and further earned a Master of Education degree in Physical Education in 2000. He received his DPT from the Massachusetts General Institute of Health Professions in 2006. Rob has been an APTA Board Certified Sports Physical Therapist since 2002. Rob is also a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) through the National Strength and Conditioning Association, and a Certified Athletic Trainer (ATC) through the National Athletic Trainers Association. Rob has been nominated and received numerous awards for excellence in teaching at the local, state, and national levels – receiving the APTA sports award in 2018. To date, Rob has edited/published 12 books, multiple chapters, articles, and home study courses related to orthopedic and sports rehabilitation They focus their discussion on shoulder disorders, lab techniques, special and functional tests, Rob's Align Conference topics & more! Here are some of the highlights:Rob shares how he felt right when he got out of physical therapy school for the first time in three years, he was really struggling to feel like he was helping people to feel better. He thinks the beauty of the PT profession is if you keep trying and learning, as you get older you become better and more skilled and not so frustrated as you were early on in your career. Mark also says doing fellowship helped him tremendously. Rob says today physical therapy students have more information to learn than when he was in physical therapy school and that students are overloaded and when they graduate it takes them a couple of years to figure out what they are doing. He says as a student you must be intentional and learn the order of things and suggests that you need to do that work best for you as a clinician, like how to problem solve and learn what questions to ask your patients. You must learn how to listen. The biggest mistake that clinicians make is not listening to their patients Rob stresses. Rob says he learned the ability to have a sound clinical examination process and all the things he didn't learn in school that they are teaching now by continuing to practice, reading about clinical reasoning, and continuing working. Rob thinks the return to sport testing is not done as often as it should be for upper extremity patients and there are a lot of them offered that could be done. Rob's Align Session Preview: Rob will be talking about special testing, and how it gets a lot of criticism specifically shoulder special testing. He helped Dave Magee on the latest edition of the Orthopedic Physical Assessment, 7th Edition, Rob admits he may be a little biased toward special testing. He says if you look at a lot of different special tests that are done throughout the body, they really are not that great at speciosity. They are better at detecting sensitivity and ruling out the bad things. According to Rob shoulder issues probably are not going to kill you so shoulder special tests are there to help aid him to the conclusion of the root cause of the patients. issue is. He will expand upon those test types at the Align Conference. Rob's Clinical Pearl – Everybody has a certain way that they treat things, my way of treating is not the only way of treating to get somebody better, it works for me, and your way works for you and if your patient is getting better, I think that is great. I've learned you must listen to the patient; you must determine what is not working, and you have to be able to self-reflect on what you are doing with the patient and what they are doing and if it is working or not. The older I get the way more conservative I am. I am very systemic and start off very simple and work to a more complex approach with my patients. I would rather not set my patients back weeks to try to gain a week. Listen to your patient. Be nice, and be kind to your patients. You should see it as an honor that patients come see you. People that are hurt and in pain are coming to you to try to help them. Even if you do not agree with the patient, you can still be nice. Truly want to help the patient. Patients know if you are there just to get a paycheck and you are going through the motions or if you really care about them and want them to get better. If you really care about people, you want your patients to get better, that means you like your patients and I think then you are going to be a way better clinician and more likely a way happier satisfied one!

A lot of us may have to think back to a time before the pandemic to remember what it felt like to get a good night's sleep. But if you're someone living with MS, you might have to think back even further. Research tells us that more than half the people living with MS report significant disruptions in their sleep and difficulty maintaining a consistent sleep schedule. And that can lead to additional health issues along with an overall decline in quality of life and wellbeing. My guest is Dr. Katie Siengsukon, a physical therapist, Associate Professor, and Director of the Sleep, Health, and Wellness Lab at the University of Kansas Medical Center Department of Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Science. We're talking about the importance of sleep to your overall health, how sleep problems affect MS, and the steps you can take if you're experiencing sleep problems. We're also talking about how the things that people affected by MS care most about really boil down to public policy decisions, making MS advocacy a critical element of this podcast. And while we're on the subject of advocacy, we're sharing our rant about a recently announced "healthcare plan" for the United States. You'll hear about what I'm calling a wellness roadmap for people living with MS. We'll give you the details of a newly-announced collaboration designed to produce a diagnostic test for a protein called neurofilament light chain -- and why that will be a game-changer for people living with MS. And we'll tell you about a clinical trial that will be starting soon for a therapy designed to reduce or eliminate MS disease activity by re-educating your immune system. We have a lot to talk about! Are you ready for RealTalk MS??! Why it's always about MS advocacy 1:25 My rant about the "healthcare plan" that was just announced 5:00 Maintaining your physical, nutritional, and emotional wellness amid COVID-19 11:57 Here comes a diagnostic test for neurofilament light chain...and why it will be a game-changer for people living with MS 16:57 "Re-educating" your immune system.
