ASES News - July 2017

President's Update

Hello fellow ASES members,

We have had a busy few months since the Annual Meeting in Boston. Our first 2017 Resident Course was chaired by Charlie Getz and Paul Sethi and was a resounding success and was sponsored by DJO Global, Exactech, Zimmer Biomet, DePuy Synthes, and the ASES Foundation. Special thanks to these fine surgeons and all who volunteered to teach at the OLC in Rosemont this past January. Great job all. Planning is already underway for the next Resident Course again at the OLC in Rosemont in January of 2018.

Most recently, the ASES held its inaugural ASES Fellow’s Symposium which took place on Friday, June 16th, during the San Diego Shoulder Institute (SDSI) meeting. This one-day symposium was chaired by Drs. Field, Mighell, Pinto, Provencher, Ryu, and Verma, and exceeded the faculty and participants’ expectations. The Robert H. Cofield, MD, Award was given out for the first time to Christopher L. Camp, MD (first place) and Brandon Horn, DO (second place). ASES congratulates Dr. Camp, at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York, NY, Dr. Horn, at the Holy Cross Orthopaedic Institute in Fort Lauderdale, FL, and all of their co-authors on excellent research projects. ASES plans to continue this offering in years to come and we will be contacting the 2017-2018 fellows in the near future regarding submission of their abstracts for the 2018 Fellow Symposium taking place in June of 2018.

Dr. Robert H. Cofield, MD, (left), Dr. Christopher L. Camp, MD, (center), and Dr. Felix H. Savoie, III, MD (right). Dr. Camp, MD, was the 1st place recipient of the Robert H. Cofield, MD, Award.

The ASES Fellowship Match Committee, led by Scott Steinmann and Leesa Galatz, has been working very hard to establish recognition criteria that will reward fellows and programs equally. These fine surgeons and their committee and members have put together guidelines that will lead fellowship education for years to come. Thank you Scott and Leesa. Also, thanks to some very hard work by our Executive Director, Anna Quintanilla, and ASES Foundation Chairman, Jon Ticker, the ASES Foundation has secured some funding that will be available to all ASES-recognized fellowships in the next couple of years.

ASES continues to be involved in protecting our patient’s rights in a number of ways. Dr. Chris Schmidt has graciously agreed to be a part of the AAOS’ new CPG on the rotator cuff, the first step in the process of setting up performance measures and patient reported outcome analysis. Also, the ASES Value Committee, led by Bernie Morrey and Larry Higgins, has truly done an amazing job guarding our profession and keeping ASES involved in this critical process.

The Multi-Center Study Taskforce, led by Jed Kuhn, has continued to make progress. Thank you to all of our members who have volunteered to help with this important process. Please keep an eye out for emails from Jed, as he is sending out a request for proposals soon. I have no doubt that this will be a huge benefit to all of us. Thank you Jed, what a great job and vision you have!

Lastly, congratulations to Jesse Jupiter and 2017 Specialty Day chairs April Armstrong and George Athwal and for the great program this past March in San Diego. What an outstanding education for the over 675 attendees who came to listen and learn.

As always, thank you all for letting me serve our great organization. Please make plans to attend our 2017 Annual Meeting in New Orleans in October. You will find registration and program information in this month’s newsletter.

See you all soon,
Buddy Savoie

English and Spanish Language Educational Videos on Arthritis and on Fracture Prevention and Osteoporosis Now Available

Spanish-language versions of the whiteboard videos of the public education programs Experts in Arthritis (www.ControlArthritis.org) and Fit to a T (www.fit2t.org) are now available online, in addition to English-language versions. We invite you to view and share the videos with your members and community. There are no restrictions on downloading them for public viewing.

Experts in Arthritis aims to inform people with arthritis how to take control and manage the disease, and provides for them the opportunity to interact with experts in arthritis care at live sessions.

Fit to a T educates men and women about their risk for fracture and osteoporosis, how to prevent a fracture - especially secondary fractures, bone loss and osteoporosis, and provides the opportunity to interact with healthcare professionals at live sessions.

The programs have been developed by the United States Bone and Joint Initiative (USBJI) which seeks to raise the priority of musculoskeletal health. We are delighted to collaborate with them on these public/patient educational programs.

If you are interested in scheduling a live session of either program at your center or in your community, you can sign up at www.ControlArthritis.org, or www.fit2t.org, or email usbji@usbji.org. There is no charge for the prepared presentation or handout materials and the USBJI will assist with organization and promotion.

Remember that October 12th is World Arthritis Day, and October 20th is World Osteoporosis Day. The USBJI would love to help you organize a session of these programs on those days or around that time to take advantage of the focus of attention on these disorders.
