2015 Current Concepts in Joint Replacement (CCJR) Spring Meeting

This CME program is open to orthopaedic surgeons, residents, nurses, and members of the orthopaedic and allied health industries.
• This meeting will focus on both primary and revision outcomes, surgical approaches, current implant designs and materials including the clinical manifestations of metal-on-metal articulations and the use of tapers, as well as address problems of fi xation, bone defi ciency, instability, trauma, and infection for hip, knee, and shoulder replacement.
• Topics delve into a triad of design, patient factors, and technical profi ciency responsible for achieving clinical longevity in hip, knee, and shoulder reconstruction.
• Hemi and total shoulder arthroplasty topics focus on improved instrumentation, design modularity, evolving surgical techniques, and optimal patient outcomes. • An assemblage of contemporary thought leaders will probe the boundaries of these problems and offer solutions for joint pathologies where arthroplasty is indicated.
