• Covers trauma management from the clavicle to the talus, with a practical, evidence-based approach rather than an exam-focused perspective.
• The course provides training on trauma management, including understanding fracture patterns, atraumatic reduction techniques, implant placement, and patient rehabilitation. It also focuses on preoperative preparation like patient positioning, C-arm setup, instruments, implants, and contingency plans.
• Participants receive a unique textbook designed as a quick reference for operating theatres and outpatient departments. It includes surgical steps, tips, tricks, and QR codes linking to surgical videos for quick revisions before surgeries. The book is tailored to assist with planning and executing procedures effectively.
• Emphasis is placed on practising techniques like screw placement, drilling, and using lag screws on sawbone models to ensure real-life application. The course also offers an implant removal module, providing practical training on removing various implants and handling challenges like broken screws, nails, and plates.
• Interactive elements include small group discussions focusing on intraoperative and postoperative challenges for different fracture types. Case presentation sessions allow participants to share and learn from real cases, with awards for the best presentations.
• Outstanding participants in case presentations may receive awards, including opportunities to be involved in future courses.
• The CO Trauma Pinnacle Course is claimed to be of higher quality than similar courses by larger organizations.
