Clinical Skills for Examining Orthopaedic Patients

Following the successful careers advice days held over the last few years for Trainees and Medical Students considering a career in Orthopaedics this year’s meeting is being expanded to include a workshop on clinical examination skills. The workshop, which is intended for both Medical Students and F1/F2 trainees will consist of a number of workshops dealing with Orthopaedic history taking and clinical examination. Specific topics covered will include examination of the shoulder, hand, back, hip, knee and foot. The workshop organiser is an examiner for the MRCS examination. A certificate of attendance will be awarded for the workshops.
