Fracture & Splinting Workshop

Overview
Join Dr. Michael Elliott and Dr. Martin Morrison for a hands-on workshop. Learn the key principles, pearls and pitfalls in splinting pediatric patients by healthcare professionals.

Several techniques for splinting will be addressed during the workshop. Objectives include:

• Demonstrate and identify the preparation and tools needed for successful splinting
• Identify the clinical guidelines for splinting, including patient evaluation, education and safety
