OVERVIEW

The American Osteopathic Academy of Orthopedics (AOAO) Annual Fall Meeting 2024 is organized by The American Osteopathic Academy of Orthopedics (AOAO) and will be held from Oct 24 - 26, 2024 at Omni Boston Hotel at the Seaport, Boston, Massachusetts, United States of America.

Description:
Our theme for this meeting is “Prove me wrong! Debates that shape our practices in 2024”. Given the rapid shift in evolving orthopedic techniques across all of our subspecialties, this series of debates in search of the truth could not be timelier. Our moderators have worked tirelessly to ensure amazing faculty, topics, and education over the three days in Boston.

Educational Objectives:
The goal of this year’s program is to provide orthopedic surgeons with an update on current techniques and controversies in orthopedics. Leaders in the field will debate and discuss selected topics so that practicing orthopedists will have knowledge to further develop their skills.

Upon completion of this conference, participants will:

  • Review and learn to apply new techniques and controversies in orthopedics.
  • Identify the indications, techniques, complications and outcomes of various surgical procedures within their specialty to provide the best patient outcomes.
  • Utilize these techniques with an emphasis on osteopathic patient care.

Goals of the Conference:
Through lectures, panels, case discussions, and question/answer sessions, the goals of this conference are:

  • To offer a diversified program of continuing education for practicing orthopedic surgeons.
  • To keep orthopedic surgeons and other interested physicians and healthcare professionals informed of recent developments, techniques and advances in orthopedics.

Statement of Need:
Responses from our prior conferences identify the need for a greater understanding of specific aspects of orthopedic surgery within the specialties of Shoulder and Elbow, Trauma, Hand, Sports, Pediatrics, Spine, Foot and Ankle and Adult Reconstructive and Arthritis.
