This bone fracture fixation course will start with classification systems and decision making on the type of fixation of fractures in different scenarios. The practical sessions will range from the application of simple screws and plates to complex fixation of fractures using k-wires, tension band wiring, intramedullary nailing.

This training day has been designed to facilitate an opportunity for doctors not engaged in a formal training scheme to be able to undertake an accredited ultrasound competency assessment.

This short course explores the contribution of surgery to climate change and examines interventions that can lead to reduced greenhouse gases and reduce the climate impact of surgery. This module will support surgeons and trainees to make improvements in surgical care through small, sustainable practices that maintain patient care and support environmental health.
