    Statement of Need/Description/or Summary of Gap Analysis

    Evidence has shown that traditional fixation constructs do not frequently achieve outcomes when applied to displaced femoral neck fractures in young patients. This activity will help close gaps in physician knowledge
    of fixations strategies for femoral neck fracture fixation.

    Emerging evidence demonstrates that supplemental fixation strategies beyond traditional hip pinning, as well as avoidance of technical errors, are associated with lower rates of major complications for young adults with displaced femoral neck fractures. This activity will help close gaps in physician knowledge of fixations strategies for femoral neck fracture fixation

    Statement of Need/Description/or Summary of Gap Analysis

    Reverse shoulder arthroplasty is commonly used for treatment of proximal humerus fractures in elderly. Many trauma surgeons may not have the training or be comfortable in performing reverse shoulder arthroplasty. However, they may find themselves in a situation where they are expected to perform these procedures for treatment of a proximal humeral fracture. Lack of expertise can increase the risk of complications with this procedure. This session will provide guidance on how to perform the procedure to obtain the best outcomes and limit complications:
    1) proper patient selection
    2) how to obtain exposure of the glenoid
    3) how to handle the tuberosities, should they be fixed at the end of the case?
    4) what are the best components: cement vs uncemented stem, what about the glenoid?
    5) how to lower the risk of infection and dislocation

    Many surgeons may find themselves treating these injuries but may not be comfortable with the technical aspects of the surgery. This session will provide technical tips and tricks and evidence to obtain better outcomes. This activity will help close the gaps in physician knowledge of complications in reverse shoulder arthroplasty for proximal humerus fractures.

    Method of Participation: There are no fees for members to participate in this activity. Non-members must pay $40. To participate in the activity, physicians will be required to take the following steps:

    Estimated time to complete activity: 1 hour

    Statement of Need/Description/or Summary of Gap Analysis

    Most physicians, especially surgeons, do not adequately understand why they get paid what they get paid leading to misunderstandings and conflict. The transition of wRVU into dollars is poorly understood as well as the actual revenue generation by the practice or hospital.

    Our faculty will present the most common compensation models as well as the actual method that practices/hospitals collect revenue. The common misunderstandings of the compensation models will be discussed.

    Statement of Need/Description/or Summary of Gap Analysis

    Orthopaedic surgeons need to understand and manage fracture patterns and underserved populations in order to deliver optimal patient
    care. Practicing orthopaedic surgeons struggle with managing many ankle fracture patterns and underserved groups and this meeting will seek
    to improve their ability to recognize and manage these challenges.

    Evidence has shown that traditional ankle fracture treatment does not fully understand fracture patterns, syndesmotic injury, and co-morbidities. This activity will help close gaps in
    physician knowledge of complication rates in ankle fracture patients especially with underserved populations in relation to ethnicity, diabetes, and neuropathy.

    Statement of Need/Description/or Summary of Gap Analysis

    The management of orthopaedic injuries in the setting of polytrauma is a complex, evolving topic. Surgeons at times struggle with identifying the optimal treatment option for different patients based on their injury and resuscitation status. Certain patients/fractures benefit from more aggressive care whereas other times a more delayed treatment plan may be necessary. This webinar will address knowledge gaps that exist in choosing the right treatment plan in complex polytrauma patients.

    In treating polytraumatized patients, orthopaedic surgeons need to assess the injury in the context of the patient's resuscitation status. Educating surgeons on contemporary techniques such as damage control plating, interpretation of lab results, and potentially identifying responders vs nonresponders will help improve care of the patient.

    Method of Participation: There are no fees for members to participate in this activity. Non-members must pay $40. To participate in the activity, physicians will be required to take the following steps:

    Statement of Need/Description/or Summary of Gap Analysis

    Physicians lack objective criteria when determining if they feel that nonoperative management for geriatric hip fracture is best for the clinical situation. Most are comfortable with a shared decision-making model when selecting treatments but are not aware of the published literature in this clinical area, and this meeting will seek to improve their ability to reference relative published literature on nonoperative management of select geriatric hip fractures.

    We have developed several educational presentations for this meeting that are based on recent literature and are intended to close a gap in physicians’ understanding and management of actual clinical outcomes of nonoperative management of geriatric hip fractures. Recent studies, for example (Nijdam et al, J Clinical Medicine 2024), suggest a need for education on realistic patient clinical outcomes and patient/family experience, which will be covered in the program.
