The Advanced Techniques of Foot and Ankle Trauma and Reconstructive Surgery for DPMs course covers the principles and current concepts in the treatment of more complex injuries and complications for doctors of podiatric medicine, incorporating the latest techniques in operative fracture management.
Before attending the course, participants complete a self-assessment questionnaire and view a series of online, prerecorded presentations related to the 4 areas addressed during the course (available September 2024). The face-to-face course contains evidence-based lectures and small group discussions to further develop decision-making and management skills. During the practical exercises, participants will be trained in the application of fixation techniques for several specific fractures in the foot and ankle.
