The 10th Annual Spine Trauma Summit provides an update on the current evidence-based practices in spine trauma care. The meeting combines lectures with interactive sessions to address questions and develop a consensus on best practices for all key areas of spinal cord injuries. It also includes live surgical demonstrations and a hands-on BioSkills session for in-person learners.

This conference will enhance recognition of key injury variables and provide important updates on spinal cord injury management and the latest techniques in minimally invasive spine fracture treatment. Hands-on training for participants will include the most advanced technologies available to improve cognitive as well as haptic skill sets.

The Advances in Trauma Meeting is sponsored by the American College of Surgeons Committee on Trauma, Region 7 (Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, and Nebraska). The Annual Advances in Trauma Meeting takes place in early December in Kansas, City, MO. Our audience includes trauma surgeons, general surgeons, emergency physicians, trauma coordinators, trauma nurses, critical care nurses, surgical residents, orthopedic surgeons, vascular surgeons, primary care physicians caring for injured patients, mid-level providers, physician assistants and nurse practitioners.
