COURSE OVERVIEW
Learn new and evolving concepts in trauma and fracture management through didactic lectures, case presentations, and hands-on practice with the latest implants from international leaders in the field of orthopaedic traumatology.
This course is of substantial value in the preparation for board and recertification examinations.
EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES
At the conclusion of this educational activity participants should be able to:
• Review orthopaedic trauma principles.
• Improve skills and assess advancements in surgical techniques through hands-on plating, external fixation, and intramedullary nailing methodology.
• Apply technological advancements that can be brought readily to the clinical setting of orthopaedic trauma care, including osteobiologics and instrumentation.
TARGET AUDIENCE
Given the content of the course, and that it provides essential information for the experienced and inexperienced surgeon, it has been highly interesting to the general orthopaedic surgeon population as well as trainees. This course addresses the most important issues in orthopaedic trauma, and enables attendees to gain the most relevant and essential knowledge as they return to their practices. In particular, surgeons who need to take call or treat traumatic musculoskeletal injuries are able to better understand the issues that they will most frequently face. Physician Assistant's and Orthopaedic nurses who deal with orthopaedic surgical treatment of the trauma patient will be addressed in this course as well.
