4.1. Cognitive

4.1.1. Recall indications, contraindications, complications, and goals of botulinum toxin injections, as evaluated by pre- and post-course multiple-choice question exam.

4.1.2. Identify the anatomical location of the key muscles in the upper and lower extremity on a simulated patient, as evaluated by direct observation by faculty using the performance checklist for muscle identification.

4.2. Psychomotor

4.2.1. Demonstrate the ability to proficiently reconstitute botulinum toxin, as evaluated by direct observation by faculty using the performance checklist for botulinum toxin reconstitution.

4.2.2. Demonstrate the ability to accurately inject botulinum toxin into key muscles in the upper and lower extremity on a simulated patient, as evaluated by direct observation by faculty using the performance checklist for injection.

4.3. Affective

4.3.1. Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of botulinum toxin injections for the management of spasticity, as evaluated by the faculty using the discussion participation rubric.

4.3.2. Reflect on how accurate botulinum toxin injections can influence patient goals to overcome disability and improve quality of life, as evaluated by the faculty using the rubric for written reflection.

6. Audience

6.1. PGY-2 residents early in their second year of training

6.2. Workshop is part of the introductory orientation to PM&R

6.3. Given new PGY-2 residents’ lack of experience with botulinum toxin injections, a workshop is needed to prepare new PGY-2 residents to deliver safe and effective botulinum toxin injections.
