Specialist Trainee Education - Resident Program

This series is aimed at UK Orthopaedic trainees who wish to broaden their knowledge on some of the more specialised areas of trauma care. We welcome trainees at all levels and Consultants with an interest in this topic.

Episode 1: Orthoplastics

In this episode, the faculty will review the principles of managing open fractures, focusing on the management of the soft tissue injury. They will outline the critical aspects of early in-hospital / emergency department management, temporising operative strategies and definitive surgery. Case examples will be reviewed in detail in order to explore the joint decision-making process (by both Orthopaedic Surgeons and Plastic Surgeons) that is required in order to manage these devastating injuries effectively.

Episode 2: Implant Materials

In this episode, the faculty will review the basic science surrounding the numerous implant materials used within the sphere of traumatology. This will include the relationship between implant material choice and its influence on fracture healing. Faculty will also explore the some of the engineering and manufacturing aspects of materials commonly used in implant design and look to dispel some of the myths around this commonly overlooked science.
