UNASSIGNED: This report describes the case of a patient with chronic radial nerve entrapment symptoms managed with chiropractic care. We propose a complementary functional neurologic assessment of muscle function in different positions that could reveal muscle dysfunctions absent with standard test position.
UNASSIGNED: A 45-year-old man presented to a private chiropractic clinic with a throbbing pain 5 cm above the right lateral elbow epicondyle radiating onto the back of the lower arm and increasing after using a mouse when working on a computer. A Mill test and a Cozen test created pain near the lateral epicondylitis. The use of complementary functional neurologic assessment for radial nerve entrapment showed changes in manual muscle testing after tests were done in different positions to increase the compression on the nerve.
UNASSIGNED: Chiropractic management was performed, including myofascial therapy, spinal and proximal radioulnar joint adjustments, neural mobilization, and the use of a splint. After 7 days (2 treatments), the patient showed no elbow pain even if he worked on his computer using a mouse. After a 2-year follow-up, no recurrence was reported.
UNASSIGNED: In this case of radial nerve entrapment symptoms, the patient benefited from chiropractic management using standard chiropractic, applied kinesiology, and neural mobilization techniques. The complementary functional neurologic assessment of radial nerve entrapment proposed revealed muscles dysfunctions absent with the standard test position. These changes in manual muscle testing were useful to determine the possible sites of entrapment in order to direct the therapeutic efforts to these locations.

This case study reports on a programmatic decision to require a credit-bearing course that was made by Faculty in Residence (FIR), including its implementation and results over a two-year period from 2010-2012. The focus is on FIR and on the impact of their decision upon the students enrolled in their Living Learning Communities (LLCs). The credit-bearing course was a Kinesiology Activities class taken by all seven LLCs at Boise State University. Anonymous feedback from students was obtained via end of semester surveys; results were used to improve the course. Survey feedback was analyzed to assess the value students perceived to have gained from the course. The majority of students reported gaining value from the class. Students noted that it positively affected their time management/personal accountability, that it decreased their stress level and that it increased their awareness of the Recreational Center offerings. Some students were critical of the course, reporting little to no value or even resentment about the course requirement. The decision, implementation and improvements of the course required faculty leadership and full participation of all LLCs; perceptions of the FIR in terms of the effects of adding the required course on their LLC are reported.
