AOTrauma / AORecon Masters Course—Periprosthetic FracturesCourse with Anatomical Specimen Dissection

May 13–16, 2018 Madrid, Spain

Lecture Room: Executive Room 9

Value statement

AOTrauma is committed to improve patient care outcomes through the highest quality education. We strive to combine the right knowledge and surgical skills that empower the orthopedic and trauma surgeons to put theory into practice and to improve fracture management for the benefit of the patient.

The AO principles of fracture management

Early and safe mobilization and rehabilitation of the

injured part and the patient as a whole.

Preservation of the blood supply to soft-tissues and bone by gentle reduction techniques and careful handling.

Fracture fixation providing absolute or relative stability, as required by the “personality” of the fracture, the patient, and the injury.

Fracture reduction and fixation to restore anatomical

relationships.

2 AOTrauma / AORecon Masters Course—Periprosthetic Fractures

Welcome

Dear AOTrauma/AORecon course participant,

Sharing a world of knowledge

Welcome to the pilot event for the AOTrauma World Meeting in Madrid, Spain, which will take place for the first time in 2020. AOTrauma provides an outstanding selection of AOTrauma courses designed to meet your specific professional needs. We are confident that you will find the course offerings as well as the networking opportunity professionally rewarding.

With a global reputation for innovation, leadership, and excellence in Continuing Medical Education (CME), AOTrauma and the AO Education Institute are transforming education. AOTrauma is constantly expanding its portfolio of educational activities available to you, and this year is teaming up with AORecon to offer the new joint curriculum course in periprosthetic fractures.

The course offers senior surgeons a holistic approach to treatment of these common types of fractures, which overlap between trauma and arthroplasty.Over the program’s three days, high-level experts from both subspecialties will lead associated lectures and deliver technical know-how to sharpen your respective understanding and develop your interdisciplinary skills.

Continuing Medical Education is not just about face-to-face courses. Portfolios address the specific clinical problems that you encounter every day. Visit the AOTrauma home page (www.aotrauma.org) to sample the new assets which are being added constantly.

Your current level of knowledge, attitudes, and skills will be challenged throughout the week. The best-in-class curriculum and faculty will provide you with a memorable learning experience that will remain with you for a lifetime.

If you enjoy the experience during this week and would like to stay in touch with AOTrauma, we invite you to become a member. Membership for medical doctors (and DO’s) requires only a completed AOTrauma Basic Principles Course and the payment of a reasonable yearly fee.

Yours sincerely,

The first AO Course was held in Davos in 1960—these early courses pioneered psychomotor techniques by teaching practical skills of AO Techniques. Since those early days over 455,000 surgeons and 155,000 ORP staff from over 110 countries have attended AO Courses.

AOTrauma / AORecon Masters Course—Periprosthetic Fractures 3

Course descriptionThe course is delivered using a combination of small group discussions, cases, exercises with anatomical specimens or other simulation materials (when appropriate), and summary lectures. All activities are moderated by expert faculty in a highly interactive learning environment. Participants are encouraged to discuss the cases and content in an open manner and to share their own experiences.

Learning objectivesAt the end of the course, participants should be able to:• Recognize the challenge of periprosthetic fracture

management• Explain the indications for internal fixation and

revision arthroplasty (including intraoperative fractures)

• Apply techniques of internal fixation • Apply techniques of revision arthroplasty• Manage the patient with a periprosthetic fracture from

a medical and orthogeriatric point of view• Prevent and treat complications• Follow up with the patient and optimize patient

satisfaction • Analyze treatment failures and recognize possible

pitfalls in treatment

Goal of the courseThis course aims to maximize patient outcomes following a periprosthetic fracture by improving the practicing surgeon’s ability to recognize, classify, plan, and perform internal fixation and revision procedures for total joint arthroplasty around the hip and knee prostheses.

Target participantsSenior, experienced (more than 5 years) consultant/practicing surgeons:• General orthopedic surgeons• Fracture specialists• Arthroplasty specialists• Surgeons experienced with both trauma

and arthroplasty

AO Foundation—Principles of AO Educational Events1) Academic independenceDevelopment of all curricula, design of scientific event programs, and selection of faculty are the sole responsibilities of volunteer surgeons from the AO network. All education is planned based on needs assessment data, designed and evaluated using concepts and evidence from the most current medical education research, and involving the expertise of the AO Education Institute (www.aofoundation.org).

Industry participation is not allowed during the entire curriculum development and planning process to ensure academic independence and to keep content free from bias.

2) Compliance to accreditation and industry codes

All planning, organization, and execution of educational activities follow existing codes for accreditation of high-quality education:• Accreditation Criteria of the Accreditation Council for

Continuing Medical Education, USA (www.accme.org)• ACCME Standards for Commercial Support:

Standards to Ensure Independence in CME Activities (www.accme.org)

• Criteria for Accreditation of Live Educational Events of the European Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (www.uems.eu)

Events that receive direct or indirect unrestricted educational grants or in-kind support from industry also follow the ethical codes of the medical industry, such as: • Eucomed Guidelines on Interactions with Healthcare

Professionals (www.medtecheurope.org)• AdvaMed Code of Ethics on Interactions with

Health Care Professionals (www.advamed.org)• Mecomed Guidelines on Interactions with Healthcare

Professionals (www.mecomed.org)

3) Branding and advertisingNo industry logos or advertising (with the exception of the AO Foundation and AO Clinical Division) are permitted in the area where educational activities take place.

Sponsors providing financial or in-kind support are allowed to have a promotional booth or run activities outside the educational area with approval from the event chairperson.

4) Use of technologies and products in simulations

If case simulations are chosen as an educational method to educate skills, we only use technology approved by the AOTK System (AOTK)—a large independent group of volunteer surgeons developing and peer-reviewing new technology (more information about AOTK, its development and approval process can be found on the AO Foundation website: www.aofoundation.org).

5) PersonnelIndustry staff is not allowed to interfere with the educational content or engage in educational activities during the event.
