ASM 2015Scientific Program

12–14 June 2015 Sheraton Noosa, Queensland

Keynote Speaker CHRISTIAN KRETTEK

Professor Christian Krettek is a leading expert for orthopaedic and trauma surgery.Professor Krettek’s research interests include minimally invasive surgery, computer navigation and robotics

simulation, molecular biology/tissue engineering and polytrauma. He holds a vision to create, expand

and integrate minimally invasive techniques. He also aims to expand, combine and integrate the use of

computer-assisted technologies like CAOS, endoscopy and robotics in orthopaedic trauma.

Since 2000, Prof Krettek has been head of the Orthopaedic Trauma Department of Hannover

Medical School (MHH), which was the first orthopedic trauma university hospital in Germany. The

Department has developed and established many therapies in orthopedic and trauma surgery,

which have become standard worldwide.

He previously held the position of Director of Trauma at The Alfred Hospital, Monash

University, in Melbourne.

Professor Krettek has been on the executive board of a number of national and

international orthopaedic and trauma societies including the Orthopaedic Trauma

Association (OTA), Medical Board of Deutsche Rettungsflugwacht (DRF) and

the Victorian State Trauma Foundation (Australia). He is also a member of the

American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS), the AO/ASIF and is

a founding member of the International Society for Computer Assisted

Orthopaedic Surgery (CAOS).

Furthermore, he is a Fellow of the Royal Australian College

of Surgeons (FRACS) and Honorary Fellow of the Royal College of

Surgeons of Edinburgh (FRCSEd).

Professor Krettek has been honored with numerous

international awards and is the author and co-author of more

than 400 publications. He is editor and associate editor of

many national and international journals and has been a

guest lecturer at many international universities.

Welcome to the Australasian Orthopaedic Trauma Society

2015 Annual Scientific Meeting

This is the first standalone Annual Scientific Meeting for the Australasian Orthopaedic

Trauma Society.Our Society’s distinguished guest will be Professor Christian Krettek from

Hannover, Germany. He will share with us his vast experience in major trauma management and limb salvage cases in situations with complete joint destruction.

The Friday afternoon and Saturday whole day scientific program will be supplemented by a Sunday morning workshop aiming to initiate and strengthen

multicentre collaboration among Australian orthopaedic trauma surgeons, orthopaedic surgeons interested in trauma and potentially open up our

collaborative network to the Asia-Pacific region.

The Scientific Program will aim to cover our core activities: clinical trauma care, education and research. We are planning to give a succinct but comprehensive

orthopaedic trauma update on clinical care, introduce the existing trauma fellowship models existing in Australia and an overview of our leading

clinical and basic science activities.

Hopefully our meeting will allow registrars to see the potential fulfilling career path in orthopaedic trauma, provide the

latest trends to all our members and guests in trauma care, strengthen the collaborative network

amongst our active members and involve interested new collaborators.
