Video Summary
The session focused on post-operative spinal imaging and instrumentation, led by Dr. Michael Carsey via a pre-recorded video due to his surgical duties. Dr. Carsey, a clinical assistant professor of neurosurgery, outlined key concepts of spine stability, the role of biomechanics, instrumentation techniques, and bone fusions. He highlighted the importance of understanding hardware placement and failure modes, complemented by images and examples of different spinal procedures. The presentation also covered bone fusion principles, outlining surgical factors, and fusion success rates. Following the video, a Q&A session was held with course directors, Mike Johns, Lauren Waldron, and Laura Prado. Discussions covered various topics, such as cadaveric bone versus cages in surgery, nicotine effects, bone stimulators, imaging protocols, and pain management in post-operative care. The panel shared experiences and addressed challenges in managing patient expectations and post-operative complications. Emphasis was on individualized patient care and adapting protocols based on clinical signs rather than adhering strictly to standard procedures. The session concluded with the promise of further educational events addressing topics requested by participants.
