TSRH Fall Spine Symposium (JS1810C)
This full-day symposium will provide learners with the knowledge and skills to reduce complications by improving systematic performance within hospital teams with regard to the operative management of scoliosis. We will do this through a series of 3 didactic lectures by our visiting professor and approximately 10-15 case presentations with open discussion following the presentations to discuss optimal forms of management of a variety of different spinal deformity pathologies.
Target Audience
Physicians including surgeons and anesthesiologist, advanced practice professionals, nurses, administrators in charge of hospital systems for performance improvement, and other healthcare professionals who were involved with the treatment of pediatric patients with spinal deformity should attend.
Learning Objectives
- Identify and discuss indications for selective thoracic fusion and selection of appropriate levels for selective thoracic fusion.
- Identify and discuss general treatment concepts and principles related to growing spine instrumentation to maximize growth of the spine and minimize complications associated with treatment
The University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to provide continuing medical education for physicians.
