Upcoming Medical Conferences in Monterey

ObGyn Ultrasound Hands-On Workshop is organized by Sonosession and will be held on Jul 20, 2019 at Monterey, California, United States of America. This Course has been approved for a maximum of 12 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™. Course Description We have combined hands-on scanning sessions with online lectures and hands-on scanning videos to provide a comprehensive approach to learning OB GYN ultrasound. Students will receive immediate access to online lectures to watch at their convenience before the hands on session. These lectures include foundational information in ultrasound physics, anatomy, scanning technique, pathology and terminology. Access to these lectures will be for one year. The hands on scanning session will take place at our Monterey, CA training center. All scanning sessions include first through third trimester patients. Transvaginal scanning on actual patients is included. We do have a phantom for practice but we feel that scanning on live patients provides the most benefit in learning the technique for endovaginal ultrasound. We cover the first trimester exam including CRL measurements, M-mode, uterine position, ovaries and adnexa. The second trimester exam review depends on class demand. Third trimester growth, biophysical, AFI, cervical length, and placenta location are included. Course Objectives • Recognize basic ultrasound artifacts • Discover common pathology and limitations of ultrasound • Perform a basic non-gravid ultrasound exam • Identify the uterus, ovaries, endometrium and cervix • Identify an intrauterine pregnancy and measure the crown rump length • Acquire an M-mode tracing of the fetal heart • Perform a biophysical profile • Measure the biparietal diameter, head circumference, abdominal circumference, and femur length for growth assessment • Measure the amniotic fluid • Identify the cervix and placental location • Communicate in a culturally-sensitive manner to patients who refuse transvaginal ultrasounds and discuss available alternatives Additional details will be posted as soon as they are available.

Western Orthopaedic Association (WOA) 83rd Annual Meeting is organized by Western Orthopaedic Association (WOA) and will be held from Jul 31 - Aug 03, 2019 at Hyatt Regency Monterey Hotel and Spa on Del Monte Golf Course, Monterey, California, United States of America. Target Audience: The 83rd Annual Meeting of the Western Orthopaedic Association has been developed primarily for orthopedic and trauma surgeons and allied health professionals with a practice profile that is exclusively musculoskeletal. CME Accreditation: This activity has been planned and implemented in accordance with the accreditation requirements and policies of the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) through the joint providership of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons and the Western Orthopaedic Association.

AAPA accepts American Medical Association Category I, Level 1 CME credit for the Physician’s Recognition Award from organizations accredited by the ACCME. Purpose: Exchange of scientific information is vital to continuing professional development; therefore, the Program Committee of the WOA has selected multiple research papers and invited nationally respected speakers to present practice-related techniques and findings in orthopaedic surgery that cover a breath of topics in a variety orthopedic specialty areas. Objectives: Educational objectives, in multiple orthopedic subfields including Hip and Knee Arthroplasty, Orthopaedic Trauma, Sports Medicine, Hand Surgery, and Foot/Ankle Surgery, will be addressed through a combination of symposia, research paper presentations, and E-posters, as well as multimedia education. After reviewing annual needs assessment, the program committee of the WOA has created a program for 2019 that will afford Orthopaedic Physicians and their Allied Health Professional Colleagues the opportunity to: • Foster a collegial and stimulating exchange of ideas between the research presenters, symposia faculty, and attendees through podium and rapid-fire paper presentations, instructional symposia, case-based discussions, multimedia educational sessions, and poster and E-poster exhibits. • Describe and employ an outcome-based rationale for the treatment of both common and complex orthopedic conditions. • Discuss the current procedures and trends in the treatment of degenerative and traumatic musculoskeletal conditions with non-operative management or operative intervention, as required, be that using arthroscopic or open procedures. • Increase knowledge and facility in managing frequently encountered hand, foot, and ankle disorders. • Critically assess the utility of recently introduced orthopedic procedures. • Describe and discuss methods to maximize patient safety and minimize complications. • Review current controversies in pain control for orthopedic conditions.
