The International Congress for Joint Reconstruction (ICJR) 2010 Meeting

This continuing medical education conference will focus on educating surgeons by featuring case studies, interactive audience discussion, live workshops, and product theaters in addition to traditional didactic lectures.

Founded in 2007, ICJR is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing orthopaedic surgeons with quality education delivered by leaders in orthopaedics. ICJR s mission is to revive and reinvent orthopaedic education, while creating a community of orthopaedic surgeons. To achieve this mission, ICJR delivers education via a multi-channel continuum of learning: ICJR`s annual live event brings surgeons together for face-to-face interaction, while its online offerings provide an opportunity for a continual exchange of ideas. ICJR`s founders, led by President & CEO, Dr. Norman Scott and Vice President, Dr. Arlen Hanssen, believe in supporting advances in orthopaedics, which is why all profits are redirected back into the community via philanthropic activities.

Learning objectives will focus participants to become fully cognizant of new and exciting technological advances in hip and knee arthroplasty, including:

1. Management of early osteoarthritis
2. Primary and revision surgery considerations for the hip and the knee
3. Alternative bearing surfaces
4. Computer-assisted navigation
5. Prevention and management of complications
6. The practice economics of arthroplasty
