CSEM-DJO Education Meeting:
1. Foot and Ankle
2. Core Stability
London (UK)
About the CongressOverview:
There is currently no consensus on the optimal treatment strategies for osteochondral lesions of the talus. Typically, arthroscopic microdrilling is performed as a first line procedure in smaller lesions, with restorative techniques such as autologous osteochondral transplantation or other cell-based techniques reserved for larger lesions or after failed primary procedures. Cartilage repair, a treatment for osteochondral lesions, is not fully understood due to a lack of level-1 clinical studies which can provide evidence-based guidelines for using cartilage repair as clinical treatment for osteochondral lesions. This activity will gather experts in the field cartilage repair surgery in the ankle to discuss future strategic guidelines for using cartilage repair as a clinical treatment for osteochondral lesions of the ankle joint.
Target Audience:
This activity is targeted to specialty physicians in foot and ankle, orthopaedic surgeons, residents and fellows.
Accreditation:
Hospital for Special Surgery is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education to provide continuing medical education for physicians.
Credit Designation:
Hospital for Special Surgery designates this live activity for a maximum of 10.5 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.
Highlights:
The first day of the congress (Friday, March 9) will consist of lectures and discussion on specific topics within cartilage repair surgery of the ankle, as well as interesting and related topics from special guest speakers. These lectures will serve as the basis for discussion on the second day. The second day of the congress (Saturday, March 10) will begin with a closed meeting of all faculty members to debate and discuss the controversies highlighted in the previous day. An open meeting with all participants will then follow with interesting case discussions and presentation of the current concepts and treatment guidelines.
The recommendations and guidelines set forth during the meeting by the faculty members will be published after the meeting. The material in these publications will fall into three main categories: 1) Diagnostic strategy, 2) Treatment Strategy, and 3) Outcome Measurement. Some examples of topics to be discussed at the congress: What is the current evidence for the use of biological augmentation? When is it appropriate to obtain an MRI for chondral injury after ankle sprain? When is it appropriate to perform diagnostic arthroscopy for chondral injury after ankle fracture? And many others!
Football Medicine Strategies for Knee Injuries
The Isokinetic FIFA Medical Centre of Excellence is proud to announce that the 2012 Football Medicine Conference will take place at Stamford Bridge Stadium, London, over the weekend of the 21st and 22nd of April.
This decision marks an exciting shift in the history of the International Conference on Sports Rehabilitation and Traumatology, having previously been held in Bologna, Italy, for the past 20 years.
With this exciting news, we can also announce the title of the conference 'Football Medicine Strategies for Knee Injuries'.
Injuries to the knee are among the most common sports-related injuries, with incidence rates in football particularly high. For this reason we have designed a conference which tackles common challenges presented to football players and their support teams.
XI South American Congress of Sports Medicine, XXIV Brazilian Congress of Sport and Exercise Medicine and VIII Congress of Orthopaedics and Traumatology of Rio Grande do Sul.
FIMS members will be included in the category of “members of supporting entities”, benefiting with a discount on the registration fee as published on the congress website.

We have received over 1,200 abstracts from all over the world and are looking forward to what is shaping up to be an exciting programme full of diverse, interesting research in sport, physical education, exercise, physical activity and sports medicine. In response to many requests to accept late submissions, we have decided to extend the abstract deadline to 1 December 2011.

Organised and owned by the IOC, IPC, ICSSPE and FIMS; ICSEMIS replaces and expands the scope of the former four-yearly Congresses that were so familiar to many scientists and academics in sport. It will be uniquely positioned to take full advantage of the world's attention that will focus on the UK in July 2012. The Opening Ceremony of the London Olympic Games will take place on 27 July just after the Convention ends and we expect many Convention delegates to attend both the Olympic and Paralympic Games. We expect over 2,000 delegates from every professional sector and academic discipline associated with sport, physical education, exercise, physical activity and sports medicine.
Keynote presentations will be inter-weaved with over 100 parallel sessions and 1000's of free communications to provide a unique multi-disciplinary insight into the broad spectrum of sport and exercise related studies.

The athlete’s heart and prevention of sudden death in sport
The recent shock of a sudden cardiac arrest to Premier League footballer Patrice Muamba and death of Italian footballer Piermario Morosini are fresh in the minds of all soccer fans. Scientists at ICSEMIS will present research on cardiac health in sport in relation to high level exercise and discuss characteristic features of the athlete’s heart and then discuss incidence and causes of sudden death in athletes. They will consider the value of screening programmes and whether and how they can help to anticipate and thus prevent such incidents.
Register for ICSEMIS here.
ICSEMIS is the International Convention on Science, Education and Medicine in Sport. It takes place from 19-23 July 2012 in Glasgow, UK and is organised by the International Olympic Committee, International Paralympic Committee, ICSSPE and FIMS. Officially affiliated to the summer Olympics and held every four years in the host country of the games, ICSEMIS will be the Sports Science convention in 2012, taking place just days before the opening ceremony of the London 2012 Games.
