Fracture & Splinting Workshop

Aug 24 @ 8:00 am - 12:00 pm

Join Dr. Michael Elliott and Dr. Martin Morrison for a hands-on workshop. Learn the key principles, pearls and pitfalls in splinting pediatric patients by healthcare professionals. Humans have been splinting their injuries since 1300 B.C., and although fundamentals have not changed, splint selection and application require some thoughtful consideration, especially with our pediatric patients. Several techniques for splinting will be addressed during the workshop. Objectives include:

• Interactive hands-on splinting lab
• Demonstrate and identify the preparation and tools needed for successful splinting
• Identify the clinical guidelines for splinting, including patient evaluation, education and safety

Approved for 4.00 CME/CE credits for nurses and physicians.

Intended Participants: Pediatricians, family practice physicians, urgent care providers, PAs, APRNs, MAs, CNAs, ortho techs, etc.
