A Focus On The Shoulder And Elbow In 2024
Description
In the October episode of our BJJ podcast, host Andrew Duckworth welcomes back listeners and expresses gratitude to authors and colleagues contributing to the Bone & Joint Journal. The discussion centers around an editorial titled 'A focus on the Shoulder and Elbow in 2024', featuring three prominent figures in orthopaedics: Professor Duncan Tennent, the Specialty Editor for Shoulder; Professor Adam Watts, the Specialty Editor for Elbow; and Professor Fares Haddad, the Editor-in-Chief. They explore the necessity to broaden the journal's coverage beyond popular subspecialties like hip and knee, and emphasize the need to highlight research from the shoulder and elbow fields. The episode delves into a variety of papers set to be published, discussing themes like instability in shoulder surgeries, approaches to elbow fractures, and the importance of patient-centered outcomes. All participants highlight the significance of interdisciplinary learning and collaboration among orthopaedic subspecialties.
