2011 Course Participant
Dear Colleague,
This intensive 26.5-hour Home Study Course is dedicated to presenting nationally-renowned Master Surgeons imparting the art, techniques, and science of trauma surgery.
Held in honor of the great surgical traditions, these Master Surgeons will present image-rich lectures and lead interactive sessions dealing exclusively with the surgical management of the most complex and difficult injuries and their complications.
Most trauma surgery and surgical critical care symposia dedicate little time to (or fail to cover in-depth) the surgical and technical management of complex injuries. But, the 2012 Masters of Trauma Surgery Intensive, presentations by these Master Surgeons focus exclusively on the finer technical points that lead to successful outcomes.
Thus, this Home Study Course differentiates itself from others in the following three ways:
Focus is on detailed “real-world” descriptions of surgical techniques, to permit their implementation in your clinical practice. This fulfils our promise of providing you with practical, actionable guidance.
Laser-focus on trauma surgery only, thus no dilution by discussion of other topics.
Lectures concentrate on the most complex and difficult injuries.
Learning Objectives:
