LIFELIKE FRACTURE SIMULATION

Trauma Academy - Trauma picture.png

Inspired by pilot training in flight simulators.

The newest course concept in the Whitebook for Medical Care of the Severely Injured (“Weißbuch Schwerverletztenversorgung”).

​

Diligent maintenance of technical, procedural and interpersonal competencies is essential for the training of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgeons. The Germany Society of Trauma Surgery (DGU) recommends a series of courses that provide the framework for this maintenance, a framework which now boasts a versatile new component: Lifelike Fracture Simulation.

AN INNOVATIVE PARADIGM IN SURGICAL EDUCATION.

COURSE LEVELS

Our courses follow a clear learning pathway to support your ascent towards excellence. Each module is designed to lift you to the next level within your desired specialty or as a generalist. The seven levels (L1-7) are building upon each other from basic to intermediate, advanced, generalist, specialist, up to master & faculty

The hands-on course concept combines state-of-the-art technologies and teaches the treatment of various complex fractures in an impressively realistic format. 


The course is tailored for experienced surgeons who want to deepen and broaden their practical skills and knowledge of specific fractures in close dialogue with colleagues. Immediate feedback from experienced instructors guides you step by step, ensuring that after the course you will have extensive expert knowledge in the treatment of the respective fracture or joint injury.

PARTICIPATION

Course Program follows the

"OK, DOC" principle.

​

During the two-day, hands-on courses, you will train the treatment of complex fractures on lifelike prefractured human specimens (AATB accredited) in exchange with your experienced instructors. This standardized approach to fracture management helps you become more confident in your daily routine.

The "OK, DOC" principle consists of the following steps:
