Welcome to New Orleans!

Birthplace of jazz, food & fun; New Orleans, The Big Easy, is one of the truly unique cities in the
world. Plan to relax and have fun outside the meeting, while still learning inside.
New Orleans has been under French, Spanish and US rule in its history, and its style, flavor, architecture,
and social life have always reflected this varied heritage. Take a streetcar from downtown to Audubon
Park to visit the zoo, and along the way you will see homes and buildings of almost any architectural
style and color. A carriage ride in the French Quarter will take you back in time, while NASAs Michoud
Facility prepares to blast us into the future.
New Orleans is, of course, famous for food and fun. It has been said you could eat at a different
restaurant every night for three years, never have the same meal, and every bite would be awesome. From
caf au lait and beignets for breakfast, po-boys and muffulettas for lunch, to our own delicious creole
cuisine for dinner (gumbo, anyone?), New Orleans food is an epicureans delight.
For the music lover in you, music of all genres is available. It is true that jazz started in New Orleans
(after all, you most likely flew into Louis Armstrong International airport), but many different sounds and talented musicians
originated in our city; Clubs throughout the French Quarter, Frenchmen Street and Treme offer live music of undeniable quality, each
with its own, original sound. Jazz, progressive, bluegrass, or whatever your ears desire is available on most street corners in the city.
Whether you visit one of our more than 40 museums dedicated to art, music, sculpture, or history you can find something to satisfy your
taste in this great city. The National WWII Museum, built to honor the Higgins boats that allowed our troops to land on the beaches
of Normandy and expanded to encompass the entire conflict - is a treasure. We even have museums dedicated to wine (WINO [Wine
Institute of New Orleans]) and food (SoFAB: The Southern Food and Beverage Museum), not to mention vampire, voodoo, haunted
house and cemetery tours, and of course, one of my favorites, the swamp tours showing off the nations largest wetlands. In and around
the Crescent City, you can see the uniqueness of Louisiana. We would love for you to visit some of our antebellum homes along the river,
bike or jog along the worlds longest levee system beside the mighty Mississippi River, golf on one of our many courses, sample the best
food and beverages in the world, or just kick back and unwind to some of the best musicians in the world New Orleans and all of us
here welcome you to our home. We are glad you are here! In local parlance, I hope you pass a good time!
Have a great time in the best city in the world!
Felix H. Savoie III, MD
Local Chairman

Accreditation

General

The American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons is accredited by

the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education to
provide continuing medical education for physicians.

CME Credit

U.S. Physicians: The AAOS designates this live activity for a

maximum of 35 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits. Physicians
should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of
their participation in the activity.
International Physicians: The AMA has determined that
physicians not licensed in the United States but who participate
in this CME activity are eligible for AMA PRA Category 1
Credits.
Allied Health Professionals: The AAOS is not accredited to
offer credit for nurses and other Allied Health Professionals. To
determine if activities offering AMA PRA Category 1 Credits
are acceptable for your licensing or certification needs please
contact the relevant organizations directly.
IMPORTANT It is important for you to check in as soon as
you arrive. The AAOS transcript system will not allow you to
claim CME credit for any educational activities you participated
in before you officially check in to the meeting. For instance,
if you arrive at the meeting on Tuesday but do not check in
until Wednesday, you will not be able to claim CME credits for
your Tuesday attendance. The CME credit system is an honor
system. You should claim only the number of credits for the
learning activities at the Annual Meeting in which you actively
participated. For example, if you attend only on Wednesday and
Thursday, the maximum amount you may claim is 17 credits. The

The price of apathy towards public affairs is to be ruled by evil men.

Plato
Understanding the legislative issues that affect you as an orthopaedic surgeon is a critical first step
in becoming more politically active. Political advocacy covers a wide range of activities, including
voting in elections, lobbying a Member of Congress, or contributing to the Political Action
Committee of the American Association of Orthopaedic Surgeons (Orthopaedic PAC). Formed in
1999, the Orthopaedic PAC works to advance policy issues that face orthopaedic surgeons.
The Orthopaedic PAC supports candidates for Federal office who advocate for the issues that you
as orthopaedic surgeons face on a daily basis. It is the only national political action committee
in Washington, D.C. representing orthopaedic surgeons before Congress. The Orthopaedic PAC
works to build a coalition of pro physician members in Congress who will fight for legislation
that supports the practice of medicine.
The Orthopaedic PAC also enhances other advocacy activities of the AAOS, such as the National
Orthopaedic Leadership Conference (NOLC), Research Capitol Hill Day, and grassroots
outreach programs such as the Washington Health Policy Fellowship. The PAC empowers our
advocacy efforts with the additional resources needed to succeed.
It is easy to become frustrated and fatigued by the demands coming out of Washington. But did
you know that the AAOS Office of Government Relations in conjunction with the Orthopaedic
PAC have protected the in-office ancillary services exception to the Stark Laws from elimination
in the fiscal cliff legislation, have worked closely with House and Senate leaders to help craft the
Sustainable Growth Rate (SGR) fix legislation and have achieved a 25% increase in funding for
the Peer-Reviewed Orthopaedic Research Program in the fiscal year 2012 appropriations bill?
To learn more about AAOS legislative and regulatory activities and the Orthopaedic PAC, visit

Despite the exceptional success total knee and total hip

arthroplasty have in restoring joint function and mobility,
polyethylene wear and osteolysis continue to be major factors
that limit the longevity of current implants.
With two OREF grants, Dr. Marshall investigated particleinduced osteolysis on mesenchymal stem cell replication in an
effort to develop alternatives to revision surgeries associated
with bone loss and subsequent aseptic loosening.

Worldwide Orthopaedic Arthroplasty Registries

Moderator: William J. Maloney, MD
Wednesday, March 12, 9:00 11:00 AM
Morial Convention Center, Room 260
This free informational session is intended for participants to
learn from and interact with international arthroplasty registry
leaders. Since the 1970s the arthroplasty registry community
has transitioned from local institutional efforts and nationwide
registries in Scandinavia and currently encompass countries from
across Europe, Australia, New Zealand, and North America.
The information provided by these registries demonstrated many
factors influencing outcomes, with a wealth of academic output,
improvements in health care quality, sharing of best practices, and
reduction in costs. Recently, arthroplasty registries have begun
collaborative arrangements to facilitate data sharing and common
methodologies while paying increasing attention to patient
reported outcomes and international standardization of metrics.
This session will feature leaders in original pioneering efforts and
current collaborative efforts from domestic and international
communities. Speakers will present historical origins, focus, value,
and goals of their individual registries and current collaborative
approaches as related to their visions for future arthroplasty
registry efforts.

Annual Meeting Education

The 2014 Annual Meeting features a variety of educational
sessions including Symposia, Instructional Courses, Papers and
Posters, Scientific Exhibits and an Orthopaedic Video Theater
(formerly MME). In addition, there will be Guided Poster Tours,
several mini Review Courses and the all-day Orthopaedic Review
Course.

Educational Programs

Symposia are two hours in length, meant for cutting edge,

controversial, new or innovative topics. Some feature debates with
a diverse faculty. It is important that symposia be well balanced
and feature a blend of differing techniques, styles or management.
Instructional Courses range from two to three hours in length
featuring internationally known faculty. The courses are added,
expanded, revised or dropped on the basis of evaluations
completed by the previous registrants of the courses. The
information presented in Instructional Course Lectures represents
accepted principles and techniques as well as new evidence based
practices. They often present the pitfalls of a specific procedure
and contain pearls that you can take home to your practice.
Innovative Education Format - courses that encourage the use of
new and technologically advanced education; featuring the unique
use of audiovisual or technology or an educational format other
than didactic. These are noted by IEF .
Case Presentation featuring participants round table with expert
faculty facilitator and an iPad for showing images and data from
faculty selected cases. The course moderator will present the case
to the participants and the facilitator leads individual table
discussion. The case is then discussed by all course participants
with individual tables showing their conclusions. The moderator
will present the final solution using evidence based data including
teaching points with references to support the selected treatment.
Four to five cases will be discussed during the two hour session.
These courses are noted by
.
Technical Skills focused on positioning, approach and step by
step technical tips in an edited video followed by discussion on
the pearls. The courses will feature 4-5 cases. These are noted
by
.
The Orthopaedic Review Course is an all-day course featuring
a review of the current knowledge on the diagnosis and
management of clinical orthopaedic problems from a nationally
accepted practice perspective. The course outline and faculty are
listed on page 46.
Paper Presentations are six minutes grouped in a series of three
followed by floor discussion. Our skilled moderators provide
attendees with opportunities to ask questions for a more
interactive learning experience.
Academy Hall is located in the Morial Convention Center, Hall
B-E. In Academy Hall, you can find the Poster Exhibits, Scientific
Exhibits, the Orthopaedic Video Theater as well as the Placement
Services.

Scientific Exhibit format is used to graphically illustrate a study
or a complex procedure. It differentiates itself from a poster
presentation in the amount of material that is presented and
uses audiovisual, interactive demonstration, or some other type
of enhancement in its presentation. The authors of the exhibits
are requested to be present Wednesday through Friday between
11:30 AM and 12:30 PM to discuss their ideas and presentation.
Schedule your time to visit them when the author is present and
can discuss the exhibit with you. Allow 10-15 minutes for the
exhibits you are most interested in so that the author has time to
properly discuss his or her presentation.
Scientific Exhibits have been grouped in the following categories:
Adult Reconstruction Hip.......................................... SE01-SE14
Adult Reconstruction Knee........................................ SE43-SE52

Presentation of Fraudulent Research

The Central Program Committee makes every attempt to ensure
that the research activities and findings presented in the scientific
program are genuine and valid. It should be understood, however,
that it is not possible to vet each and every study that is presented
during the Annual Meeting. The abstracts of presentations
submitted for grading are rated by qualified and expert graders. In
some instances the paper presentation or poster may not reflect its
related abstract submitted six months earlier. The Central Program
Committee considers these instances to be errors in the presenters
judgment when they occur. Presentation of fraudulent research
violates the AAOS Standards of Professionalism on Research
and Academic Responsibilities. If you feel you have witnessed a
knowingly fraudulent presentation, please address your concern
to a member of the Central Program Committee or Academy
staff. The Central Program Committee will review the matter and
may determine to bar the submission of future abstracts from the
speaker(s) and/ or to publish a retraction of the abstract in AAOS
Now or other AAOS publications or communications. If there is
a sufficient ground, any AAOS member may also file a grievance
with the AAOS Professional Compliance Program. Based upon
review of the Committee on Professionalism and as applicable the
Judiciary Committee, the AAOS Board of Directors may determine
to issue a letter of concern, censure, suspend or expel the Fellow or
Member who presented the fraudulent research.

AAOS Videotaping
The Academy is videotaping certain portions of the Annual
Meeting. The tapes will be used for educational purposes and/or
may be sold alone or in connection with AAOS products. Please
note that by attending the Annual Meeting, your image and/or
voice may be captured and included as part of this event.

Reproduction Policy
The Academy reserves any and all of its rights to
materials presented at the Annual Meeting, including
Posters and Scientific Exhibits. Reproductions of any
kind, by any person or entity, without prior written
permission from the Academy, are strictly prohibited.
Prohibited reproductions include, but are not limited to, audiotapes,
videotape, and/or still photography. Persons violating this policy may
have their badge confiscated and be escorted from the meeting.
No unapproved surveys, handouts or literature may be distributed
at the meeting.

Private Meeting
The AAOS 2014 Annual Meeting is a private meeting. The AAOS
reserves the right to control space and ask people to leave the
meeting who are not qualified to attend or who cause disruptions,
at the AAOS sole discretion.
Cell phones and beepers are a necessity to a doctor but a ringing
phone or beeper during an educational session is distracting to the
audience and speakers. Please place your cell phone on vibrate as
a courtesy to others. When taking or making a call, please step
outside the meeting room.

Education Committees
The Central Program Committee, Central Instructional Course
and Exhibits Committee gratefully acknowledge the efforts of

The loss of sagittal balance of the spine during aging is the result
of progressive changes in alignment of the thoracic & lumbar
spine along with the pelvis. These changes may ultimately result
in significant positive sagittal imbalance & degradation of the
patients quality of life by limiting activities of daily living. When
severe sagittal decompensation develops, it may require surgical
realignment via a wide array of surgical procedures. Since there
has been extensive research into establishing normal pelvic &
spinal alignment parameters, careful adherence to these concepts
during surgical correction will avoid needless exacerbation of the
patients sagittal imbalance.

The Masquelet technique implies a two stage procedure;

in the first stage a PMMA block manages the dead
space resulting from segmental bone defect and
produces a bioactive membrane. In the second stage,
the PMMA spacer is removed and fresh cancellous
bone autograft is placed into the defect with the
bioactive membrane surrounding it. The membrane
prevents graft resorption by promoting vascularisation
and corticalisationIndications: The original and most
common indication for the Masquelet technique has
been a segmental bone defect resulting from septic
non union of the leg. The success of the technique has
allowed us to expand the indications to other significant
long bone defects involving the forearm bones, the
humerus and the fmur. Bone defects reconstruction,
in pediatric patients, due to the resection of congenital
pseudarthrosis, bone tumors and other diseases may
also benefit from the technique.Results: Recent review of
long term results have confirmed the results of already
published series and the validity of the technique with
successful reconstruction of segmental bone defects
> 20 cm. Nonetheless, in a limited number of cases
some complications have been observed as fractures
of the reconstructed segment or deformities requiring
osteotomies.Discussion: Further understanding of
membrane biology can help to optimize current
procedures, particularly by selecting the nature of the
spacer, the optimal time for performing the second
stage surgery and the best bone material to be placed
within the membrane. Organized by the Guest Nation
- Socit Franaise De Chirurgie Orthopdique Et
Traumatologique.

A 12-year cohort study revealed 12.5% incidence of DS. DS was

associated with large PI and reduced trunk flexor muscle. DS with
DK was associated with worse HRQOL and trunk function than
DK alone.

Impacts of HRQoL measures and radiographic parameters on

patient satisfaction following adult spinal deformity surgery
showed that factors driving patient satisfaction differed from
surgical goals.

Surgical pathology may aid in the diagnosis of posterior spine

instrumentation infection.

Increasing number and total time of dislocation are associated
with the development of glenoid and humeral head bony lesions
that alter surgical management of anterior shoulder instability.

The clinical outcome of Bristow-Latarjet procedure seems to be

uncorrelated to the fate (union, nonunion or rate of reabsorption)
of the coracoid bone block.

In this study, arthroscopic Bankart repair seemed to provide a

better rate of return to sport and a subjective perception of the
shoulder compared to the unaffected shoulder.

Melvin P. Rosenwasser, MD, New York, NY
Patients self-reported pain with activity (as measured by VAS)
was the only significant predictor of DASH score in a cohort of
both operative and non-operative CMC arthritis patients.

Based on this study, there is a statistical advantage to measuring

the angular position of the PIP joint with a goniometer compared
to visual estimation but no statistical advantage to measuring the
angular position of the MCP or wrist joint with a goniometer
compared to visual estimation.

Although PRP application after arthroscopic repair of the rotator
cuff has no effects on clinical recovery and structural integrity, it
reduces the postoperative occurrence of shoulder stiffness.

Platelet concentrate augmentation reduces re-tear rates after

arthroscopic repair of small and medium sized rotator cuff tears.

The costs of preoperative evaluation of rotator cuff tears prior

to surgical repair is examined here via a retrospective database
review that tracks preoperative expenditures over a 3 month
period.

Plasma S100A8/A9 detects monocyte recruitment in chronic

inflammation. Increased S100A8/A9 may be useful identifying
enhanced risk of loosening in patients without osteoarthritis in
other joints.

Radiolucent line was negatively correlated with cementing

depth. At least 80mm of cementing depth is advised to prevent
radiolucent lines in femur and 70mm in tibia in hybrid fixation

Following volar plating for distal radius fractures, early motion
favored only better 6 week motion and outcome scores while
delayed motion also resulted in similar outcome at one year.

Volar locked plating of distal radius fractures has a complication

rate as high as 26%, but most of these were minor sensory
neurapraxias that subsequently resolved.

Patients with a non-anatomical position of their DRF do not

show a higher amount of OA after 15 year. Although their ROM
and grip strength are decreased, there is no functional deficiency.

Antibiotic Stewardship in Orthopaedic Surgery:

Principles and Practice
Moderator: Joseph A. Bosco III, MD, New York, NY
James D. Slover, MD, New York, NY
Brett R. Levine, MD, Chicago, IL
Michael Phillips, MD, New York, NY

Thorough knowledge of the principles of antibiotic

stewardship programs (ASPs) is essential for the
practicing orthopedic surgeon. These principles include
1) determining appropriate indications for antibiotic
administration, 2) choosing correct antibiotic based
on known or expected pathogens and 3) determining
the correct dosage and 4) treatment time period. The
emergence of resistance, geographical diversity of
infecting pathogens, and changing patient population
will require customization of our prophylactic regimen
to reduce infectious complications. A multidisciplinary
approach to ASP leads to improved patient outcomes
and cost effective medical care.

Social media is an emerging modality that can be viewed
as a chance to update our approach to interacting
with patients, data, and each other in important new
ways. However, careful attention regarding patient
privacy, liability, and HIPPA violations is required by
the orthopaedist interested in utilizing this technology.
With mindful use of social media, we are able to

The risk of readmission following total hip arthroplasty is
increased in patients with a BMI>40, a history of chronic steroid
use, and in patients with a low preoperative serum albumin.

As the rate of THA in the US continues to rise to meet patient

demand, particularly among younger patients, patterns of
resource use are changing, and the revision burden is decreasing
substantially.

outcome but no significant difference in functional outcome was
seen.

In contrast to adults, the primary intra-articular pathology

(97.4%) in children was labral tear; 68% tears involved at least
2 zones. Treating surgeons should expect such extensive tears in
children.

Healthcare delivery is changing rapidly. With the proliferation

of technological advances combined with real payment reform
and the growing pressures of having to provide more care
to more people for less cost; 2014 will be a sentinel year
of change for orthopedic surgeons and their practices. This
cutting edge symposium will examine not only the changing
landscape of orthopedic practice, but will provide real solutions
necessary to not only weather these changes, but excel in these
tumultuous times. From the SGR fix to ICD-10 implementation
to surviving the changes of the Affordable Care Act, this
symposium will become the keystone to developing the
successful practice now and in the future.

Focus on current treatment strategies for the multiligament

injured/dislocated knee using a case based approach and

The OTA classification of open fractures is able to predict limb
amputation in adults.

D-AAs have broad-spectrum activity, are not harmful to cells,

their local delivery significantly reduces biofilm after bacterial

2014 Disclosures

312

Disclosures

Why Disclosure?
As an accredited provider of continuing medical education (CME),
the Academy is required by the Accreditation Council for Continuing
Medical Education (ACCME) to obtain and share with participants of
any AAOS CME activity any potential conflicts of interest by faculty,
program developers, and CME planners.
The ACCME Standards of Commercial Support, Standard 2 states the
requirements:
2.1 The provider must be able to show that everyone who is in a position to control the content of an education activity has disclosed
all relevant financial relationships with any commercial interest to
the provider.

Disclosures

2.2 An individual who refuses to disclose relevant financial relationships will be disqualified from being a planning committee member, a teacher, or an author of CME, and cannot have control of,
or responsibility for, the development, management, presentation
or evaluation of the CME activity.
The AAOS Mandatory Disclosure Policy for Governance Groups (except Board of Directors), Continuing Medical Education Contributors,
Senior Management Team Members, and Others requires that faculty
submit all financial relationships with industry occurring within the
past 12 months.

These codes reflect the numbers used in a series of questions answered

by all persons participating in the AAOS Orthopaedic Disclosure Program, which is available at www.aaos.org/disclosure.
The Academy does not view the existence of these disclosed interests
or commitments as necessarily implying bias or decreasing the value of
the authors participation in the meeting; however, these data are offered to the audience as additional information that may be helpful in
evaluating the educational presentations. In accordance with ACCME
guidelines, all participants in the Annual Meeting must have disclosed
on or after April 1, 2013. The disclosures in this list are in compliance
and current with the AAOS Orthopaedic Disclosure Program as of
October 1, 2013.
In an effort to increase transparency and to protect both AAOS and its
members, two additional policies relating to disclosure also exist:
A
AOS Policy for a Fellow or Member Who Fails to Disclose Conflicts of Interest When Required
A
AOS Policy for a Fellow or Member Who Fails to Disclose Conflict
of Interests Accurately and Completely
These policies will help appropriate individuals to address specific
conflict of interest issues that may arise during Annual Meeting educational programs and activities.

Each participant in the Annual Meeting has been asked to disclose if

he or she has received something of value from any pharmaceutical,
biomaterial or orthopaedic device equipment company and/or supplier.
The Academy has identified the options to disclose as follows:
1 Royalties
2 Speakers Bureau/paid presentations
3a. Employee
3b. Paid consultant
3c. Unpaid consultant
4 Stock or stock options
5 Research or institutional support as a principal investigator has
been received
6 Other financial or material support
7 - Royalties, financial or material support from publishers

Orthopaedic Surgeon-Industry Relationships

STANDARDS OF PROFESSIONALISM
Orthopaedic Surgeon-Industry Relationships

Orthopaedic Surgeon-Industry Relationships

Adopted April 18, 2007; Amended April 23, 2012

AAOS Standards of Professionalism (SOPs) establish the
minimum standards of acceptable conduct for orthopaedic
surgeons. Violations of any SOP may result in professional
compliance actions against an AAOS Fellow or Member found
in violation. Not prepared using a systematic review, SOPs
are developed through a consensus process and are ultimately
adopted as official AAOS statements by the two-thirds vote of the
AAOS Fellowship casting ballots.
The primary focus of the orthopaedic profession is care of
the patient. As part of their lifetime commitment to patients,
orthopaedic surgeons must maintain specialized knowledge and
skills through participation in continuing medical education
(CME) programs, seminars, and professional meetings. Often,
these professional functions are sponsored by the manufacturers
of medical devices, biologics, drugs and other items use in the
care of the patient (Product). These businesses play an important
role in the support of CME events and the development of new
technologies. This collaborative effort ensures that patients have
the best outcomes through the invention and testing of new
technology, research and evaluation of existing technology, and
continued education of orthopaedic surgeons.
Cooperative relationships between orthopaedic surgeons and
industry benefit patients. Orthopaedic surgeons are best qualified
to provide innovative ideas and feedback, conduct research trials,
serve on scientific advisory boards, and serve as faculty to teach
the use of new technology. Orthopaedic surgeons, in an effort to
improve patient care, rely on industry to bring their creative ideas
to fruition. A collaborative relationship between orthopaedic
surgeons and industry is necessary to improve patient care,
but must be carefully scrutinized to avoid pitfalls of improper
inducements, whether real or perceived.
A potential conflict of interest exists when professional judgment
concerning the well being of the patient has a reasonable
chance of being influenced by other interests of the physician.
Disclosure of a conflict of interest is required in communications
to patients, the public and colleagues. Orthopaedic surgeons, like
all physicians, have an ethical obligation to present themselves
and the services they provide to patients in a clear and accurate
manner.
When faced with a potential conflict of interest that cannot be
resolved, an orthopaedic surgeon should consult with colleagues
or an institutional ethics committee to determine whether there is
an actual or potential conflict of interest and how to address it.
These Standards of Professionalism draw from the aspirational
Code of Medical Ethics and Professionalism for Orthopaedic
Surgeons that appears in bold italics. The statements that
follow the aspirational Code establish the mandatory minimum
standards of acceptable conduct for orthopaedic surgeons when
engaged in relationships with industry. Violations of these
minimum standards may serve as grounds for a formal complaint
to and action by the AAOS as outlined in the AAOS Bylaws
Article VIII.
The Standards of Professionalism on Orthopaedic Surgeon Industry Relationships apply to all AAOS Fellows and Members.
Only an AAOS Fellow or Member may file complaints of an
alleged violation of these Standards of Professionalism regarding
another AAOS Fellow or Member.

Aspirational: AAOS Code of Medical Ethics and

Professionalism for Orthopaedic Surgeons, I.A.:

The orthopaedic profession exists for the primary purpose of

caring for the patient. The physician-patient relationship is the
central focus of all ethical concerns.
Mandatory Standards:
1. An orthopaedic surgeon shall, while caring for and treating
a patient, regard his or her responsibility to the patient as
paramount.
2. An orthopaedic surgeon shall prescribe products or other
treatments primarily on the basis of medical considerations
and patient needs, regardless of any direct or indirect interests
in or benefit from industry.

Aspirational: AAOS Code of Medical Ethics and

Professionalism for Orthopaedic Surgeons, II. C.:

The orthopaedic surgeon should obey all laws, uphold the

dignity and honor of the profession, and accept the professions
self-imposed discipline. Within legal and other constraints, if
the orthopaedic surgeon has a reasonable basis for believing
that a physician or other health care provider has been involved
in any unethical or illegal activity, he or she should attempt to
prevent the continuation of this activity by communicating with
that person and/or identifying that person to a duly-constituted
peer review authority or the appropriate regulatory agency. In
addition, the orthopaedic surgeon should cooperate with peer
review and other authorities in their professional and legal
efforts to prevent the continuation of unethical or illegal conduct.
Mandatory Standard:
3. An orthopaedic surgeon shall comply with all relevant federal
and state conflict of interest and fraud and abuse laws.

Aspirational: AAOS Code of Medical Ethics and

Professionalism for Orthopaedic Surgeons, III.A.:

The practice of medicine inherently presents potential conflicts

of interest. When a conflict of interest arises, it must be resolved
in the best interest of the patient. The orthopaedic surgeon
should exercise all reasonable alternatives to ensure that the
most appropriate care is provided to the patient. If the conflict
of interest cannot be resolved, the orthopaedic surgeon should
notify the patient of his or her intention to withdraw from the
relationship.
Mandatory Standards:
4. An orthopaedic surgeon shall, when treating a patient,
resolve conflicts of interest in accordance with the best
interest of the patient, respecting a patients autonomy to
make health care decisions.
5. An orthopaedic surgeon shall notify the patient of his
or her intention to withdraw from the patient-physician
relationship, in a manner consistent with state law, if a
conflict of interest cannot be resolved in the best interest of
the patient.

Aspirational: AAOS Code of Medical Ethics and

Professionalism for Orthopaedic Surgeons, III.C.:

When an orthopaedic surgeon receives anything of significant

value from industry, a potential conflict exists which should be
disclosed to the patient. When an orthopaedic surgeon receives
inventor royalties from industry, the orthopaedic surgeon should
disclose this fact to the patient if such royalties relate to the
patients treatment. It is unethical for an orthopaedic surgeon
2014 American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons

Orthopaedic Surgeon-Industry Relationships

to receive compensation of any kind from industry for using a
particular product. Fair market reimbursement for reasonable
administrative costs in conducting or participating in a
scientifically sound research clinical trial is acceptable.

That there is an actual need for the service;

That the provision of the service will be verified;
That the compensation for services provided by the
orthopaedic surgeon is based on fair market value;
That the compensation for services provided by the
orthopaedic surgeon is not based on the volume or value
of business he or she generates; and
That reimbursement for reasonable and actual expenses,
such as modest meals, travel and lodging, incurred by
the orthopaedic surgeon is based on appropriate need
and accurate documentation.
11. An orthopaedic surgeon shall consult at only those meetings
that are conducted in clinical, educational, or conference
settings conducive to the effective exchange of basic science
and/or clinical information.

Aspirational: AAOS Code of Medical Ethics and

Professionalism for Orthopaedic Surgeons, IV.A.:

The orthopaedic surgeon continually should strive to maintain

and improve medical knowledge and skill and should make
available to patients and colleagues the benefits of his or her
professional attainments. Each orthopaedic surgeon should
participate in continuing medical educational activities.
Mandatory Standards:
12. An orthopaedic surgeon shall accept no financial support
from industry to attend industry-related social functions
where there is no educational element.
13. An orthopaedic surgeon who is attending a CME event
shall accept no industry financial support for attendance at
a CME event. Residents and orthopaedists-in-training may
accept an industry grant to attend a CME event if they are
selected by their training institution or CME sponsor and the
payment is made by the training program or CME sponsor.
The industry entity funding the grant shall have no influence
in the selection of the individual recipients. Bona fide faculty
members at a CME event may accept industry-supported
2014 American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons

reasonable honoraria, travel expenses, lodging and modest

meals from the conference sponsors.
14. An orthopaedic surgeon, when attending an industrysponsored non-CME educational event, shall accept only
tuition, travel and modest hospitality, including meals and
receptions. The time and focus of the event must be for the
presentation of bona fide scientific, educational or business
information or training.
15. An orthopaedic surgeon, when attending an industrysponsored non-CME educational event, shall accept no
financial support for meals, hospitality, travel, or other
expenses for his or her guests or for any other person
who does not have a bona fide professional interest in the
information being shared at the meeting.

Aspirational: AAOS Code of Medical Ethics and

Professionalism for Orthopaedic Surgeons, III.D.:

An orthopaedic surgeon reporting on clinical research or

experience with a given procedure or product must disclose any
financial interest in that procedure or product if the orthopaedic
surgeon or any institution with which that orthopaedic surgeon
is connected has received anything of value from its inventor or
manufacturer.
Mandatory Standards:
16. An orthopaedic surgeon, when reporting on clinical research
or experience with a given procedure or product, shall
disclose any financial interest in that procedure or product
if he or she or any institution with which he or she is
connected has received anything of value from its inventor,
manufacturer, or distributor.
17. An orthopaedic surgeon who is an investigator shall make his
or her best efforts to ensure at the completion of an industrysponsored study that relevant research results are reported
and reported truthfully and honestly with no bias or influence
from funding sources, regardless of positive or negative
findings.

Orthopaedic Surgeon-Industry Relationships

Mandatory Standards:
6. An orthopaedic surgeon shall decline subsidies or other
financial support from industry, except that an orthopaedic
surgeon may accept non-monetary items which benefit
patients or serve an educational function and which have a
fair market value of less than $100.
7. An orthopaedic surgeon who has influence in selecting a
particular product or service for an entity shall disclose any
relationship with industry to colleagues, the institution and
other affected entities.
8. An orthopaedic surgeon shall disclose to the patient any
financial arrangements with industry that relate to the
patients treatment, including the receipt of inventor royalties,
stock options or paid consulting arrangements with industry.
9. An orthopaedic surgeon shall accept no direct financial
inducements from industry for utilizing a particular product
or for switching from one manufacturers product to another.
10. An orthopaedic surgeon shall enter into consulting
agreements with industry only when such arrangements are
established in advance and in writing to include evidence:
