The European Union’s new General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) becomes effective on May 25, 2018. The European Union (EU) enacted these rules to create uniform data protection rules for all member states to allow EU citizens more control over their personal information. The new rule will also have a global impact on any company that offers goods or services to EU residents or monitors their behavior and will impact U.S. firms that collect, store or process EU customer data. 

Join us to learn more about the key components of the regulation and responsibilities of businesses managing EU data. We will discuss principles relating to processing of personal data, conditions for consent, rights of the data subject and penalties for not complying with GDPR.

Scapula fractures have traditionally been thought of as rare injuries that for the most part heal fine with benign neglect. Current research has shown that a significant percentage of non-operatively treated patients with significantly displaced scapula fractures may have reduced strength, motion, and pain. Other studies have shown operative treatment to restore strength and motion post-operatively. These findings have sparked an interest for the operative treatment of scapula fractures and validated the necessity to provide the education that will make treatment of these injuries available to patients. This course will increase attendees' understanding of scapula fractures and their treatment, with a purpose to teach the surgical skills necessary to prevent morbidity from these injuries. View agenda.

Audience

This activity is designed for orthopaedic surgeons interested in the operative indications and treatment of scapula fractures.
