LEARNING OBJECTIVES

 At the conclusion of this conference, attendees will be able to:

• Identify available graft options, evidence based benefits and risks of each graft type, how to select the ideal ACL reconstruction graft for patient characteristics
• Analyze the etiology of hip disorders and participate in Hip Preservation by detecting hip pathology early and treating or referring appropriately based on available evidence based guidelines
• Identify the correct exam and imaging features used to diagnose cartilage injuries and integrate with evidence based literature in treatment of these injuries
• Implement the best rehabilitation methods in order to safely return an athlete to play
• Describe current biologic treatments available for symptomatic osteoarthritis, summarize available outcome evidence, and will be prepared to apply indications in clinical practice
