17th Annual Symposium on Current Concepts in Spinal Disorders
In-Person Event
Feb 08 - 10, 2018
Las Vegas, Nevada, USA
OVERVIEW
17th Annual Symposium on Current Concepts in Spinal Disorders is organized by Cedars-Sinai Medical Center and will be held during Feb 08 - 10, 2018 at Bellagio, Las Vegas, Nevada, United States of America.
The target audience for this medical event is orthopedic surgeons, neurosurgeons, spine surgeons, physiatrists, pain management physicians, fellows, residents, physician assistants, nurses, nurse practitioners, and other physicians and spine professionals interested in the treatment of spinal disorders. This CME Conference has been approved for a maximum of 13 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits.
Course Description : -
The 17th Annual Symposium on Current Concepts in Spinal Disorders focuses on treatment methodology, controversies in spine care management, and new and emerging technologies. The faculty is composed of internationally recognized experts who will present lectures focused on innovations in spine surgeries, spine sciences including biologics, stem cells, minimally invasive surgeries, motion preservation, complications, controversies and deformities. Participants will have several opportunities to enjoy personal interactions with many of our country’s leading spine professionals. All attendees are encouraged to join faculty for discussions and debates regarding all topics. Attendees are also encouraged to submit cases for our “What would you do?” Panel Challenge Case Discussion.
Educational Objectives : -
• Identify vulnerable areas in spine care and develop more effective treatment strategies, taking into consideration long-term effects from injury as well as the complex factors impacting safety and efficacy
• Identify risk factors associated with spine surgeries and use evidenced-based best practices to manage complications, should they occur
• Discuss recent advances in spine decompression and fusion and the various drivers of disc degeneration, and apply best practices in the management of patients with DDD
• Discuss new innovations and operative techniques and apply them to future clinical decision-making processes
• Describe options for correcting spinal deformities that avoid significant functional and/or neurological impairment in patients
• Recognize and conservatively manage patients with various types of spinal disorders
• Discuss the science, risks and benefits of motion-preservation technologies and strategies to optimize patient outcomes
