Recent innovations in surgical technique and pain control make overnight stays unnecessary in many cases, opening up new opportunities for facilities, physicians and patients. If you'd like to explore adding outpatient total joint replacement surgery to your facility, don't miss this intensive 8-hour workshop presented by orthopedic surgeon Christopher S. McClellan, DO, and David Berkheimer, BSN, CRNA. The duo will explain how to replace knees, hips, shoulders and ankles in the OR and then get patients ambulatory and on their way home within a few hours of closing.

With sessions like our outpatient total joint workshop (see above), a surgeon sharing lessons learned from his tragic mistake, a Johns Hopkins visionary discussing the need for transparency in health care and other cutting-edge content, you may not always agree with the speaker, but you won't be bored! Take a look around you at ORX and you'll find something no other meeting delivers — the ORX Big 10. These are the leaders of the biggest and busiest surgery facilities (in the top 10% of surgical volume) in the country. And they are participating, contributing and networking along with you and everyone else at the conference. No other meeting can provide the networking power of ORX. ORX is an intimate meeting. With 300-500 attendees and 50-100 vendors, you won't get lost in the shuffle. You'll have an opportunity to meet almost every ORX Big 10 leader, fellow participant and vendor at the conference. You'll leave with great contacts, fantastic tips for your OR and wonderful memories. And an invitation to join the ORX family again next year.
