Screening for Vascular Pathologies of the Neck

Dépistage des pathologies vasculaires du cou

L’École de physiothérapie et d’ergothérapie de l’Université McGill a le plaisir d’accueillir Nathan Hutting, PT, PhD, professeur agrégé, HAN University of Applied Sciences, Pays-Bas, pour offrir cet atelier. L’atelier portera sur la gestion sécuritaire des personnes qui présentent des douleurs cervicales, des céphalées ou des symptômes orofaciaux.

Les participants apprendront les connaissances les plus récentes sur le dépistage des pathologies vasculaires et des limitations du flux sanguin, notamment :

Les pathologies vasculaires et les limitations du flux sanguin dans la région de la colonne cervicale
Anatomie vasculaire et signes et symptômes des pathologies vasculaires et des limitations du flux sanguin
Les contre-indications, les signaux d’alarme et les facteurs de risque
Les éléments importants de l’anamnèse, de l’examen physique (si vous suivez la deuxième partie de l’atelier) et de la communication avec le patient.

À la fin de l’atelier, les participants seront en mesure de mener un processus de raisonnement clinique fondé sur des données probantes, y compris un entretien contemporain avec le patient, axé sur l’identification des pathologies (vasculaires) sous-jacentes et des facteurs de risque. En outre, une attention particulière sera accordée à la communication, y compris la fourniture d’informations et de conseils appropriés.

Nathan Hutting, Ph. D.

Nathan Hutting studied physiotherapy (2003) and manual therapy (2009). In 2015, he was awarded a PhD for his dissertation on self-management for employees with complaints of the arm, neck or shoulder (Radboud University, the Netherlands). Nathan is currently working in the Netherlands as an associate professor at HAN University of Applied Sciences in the Occupation & Health research group. He also works as a physiotherapist and manual therapist in private practice. Since 2022, Nathan has served on the board of the VvAA, the largest association of healthcare professionals in the Netherlands with over 130,000 members. He is also a board member of the Physiotherapy Research Society (United Kingdom) and the Pain, Mind and Movement Special Interest Group of the International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP). Since July 2024, Nathan is the Vice-President of IFOMPT, the International Federation of Manual and Musculoskeletal Physical Therapists, a Specialty Group of World Physiotherapy.

Nathan has been a member and chair of many working groups and advisory committees related to manual therapy and physiotherapy. Nathan was a board member of the Dutch Manual Therapy Association (NVMT) for nine years (2014−2023) and served as an IFOMPT Member Organisation delegate for over seven years (2016−2023). Currently, he is a member of the Scientific College of Physical Therapy (WCF) of the Royal Dutch Society for Physical Therapy (KNGF) and a member of the scientific advisory board of the Dutch RSI association. Nathan was a member of the congress programme committee of the 2023 World Physiotherapy Congress and he is a current member of the congress programme committee for the 2025 World Physiotherapy Congress.

Nathan’s current research topics include chronic conditions, musculoskeletal conditions, self-management, patient-centred care, occupational health, work-focused healthcare and vascular conditions. He has published over 50 peer-reviewed articles. Many of these articles have significantly influenced musculoskeletal physiotherapy practice (for example, regarding the assessment of the neck region for potential vascular conditions and blood flow limitations, and the provision of person-centred care and self-management support in musculoskeletal practice).

Nathan has delivered numerous international keynote speeches and congress presentations, and lectured in Africa, Europe, Asia, North America and Oceania/Australia. He chaired focused symposia at the World Physiotherapy congresses in 2017, 2019, 2021 and 2023.
