Continuing Medical Education Credit
The Orthopaedic Research Society and the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons jointly sponsor the scientific presentations at the 6th Combined Meeting.

This activity has been planned and implemented in accordance with the Essential Areas and policies of the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education through the joint sponsorship of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons and the Orthopaedic Research Society. The American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons is accredited by the ACCME to provide continuing medical education for physicians.

Meeting Objectives

  • To present the best available research from all disciplines of musculoskeletal research.
  • To promote the exchange of ideas and encourage challenges in orthopaedic research.
  • To encourage promising and emerging areas in musculoskeletal research, including basic science, education, and research strategies by use of forums, workshops, special sessions and special interest meetings.

FDA
All drugs and medical devices used in the United States are administered in accordance with Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulations. These regulations vary depending on the risks associated with the drug or medical device, the similarity of the drug or medical device to products already on the market, and the quality and scope of clinical data available.

Some drugs or medical devices demonstrated at this 6th Combined Meeting of the Orthopaedic Research Societies may have not been cleared by the FDA or have been cleared by the FDA for specific purposes only. The FDA stated that it is the responsibility of the physician to determine the FDA clearance status of each drug or medical device he or she wishes to use in clinical practice.

Orthopaedic Research Society policy provides that “off label” uses of a drug or medical device may be described in the 6th Combined Meeting’s CME activities so long as the “off label” use of the drug or medical device is also specifically disclosed (i.e., it must be disclosed that the FDA has not cleared the drug or device for the described purpose). Any drug or medical device is being used “off label” if the described use is not set forth on the product’s approved label.
