Lit. Update with Coleen Sabatini

Dr. Coleen Sabatini from UCSF joins the show to discuss implicit bias and bullying in our field, changing and international trends in supracondylars, and two international orthopedic public health issues she is immersed in solving: gluteal fibrosis and post-injection paralysis. The lightning round highlights new ultrasound techniques, SCFE implants, and more.

Your hosts are Carter Clement from Children’s Hospital of New Orleans, Craig Louer from Vanderbilt, and Josh Holt from University of Iowa. Music by A. A. Alto.
