Awake Spine Pre-Conference Workshop: November 9, 2023

Internet Live Activity

This course is designed to enhance physician and advance practice provider comfort in the management of patients with diverse spinal disorders and conditions. This two-day course focuses on discussions concerning the management of spinal disorders, as well as technological advancements, controversial spine topics, complications and socioeconomic issues. The course provides a mixture of didactic, case-based and evidence-based guideline review, along with an opportunity for panel discussion.


Awake Spine Pre-Conference Workshop (Nov 9)

Awake spine surgery is a new and developing field of minimally invasive spine surgery. While spine surgery is typically performed with general anesthesia, awake spine is performed with regional anesthesia allowing faster recovery, reduced pain, reduced overall system effect on the patient. The goal of this workshop is to teach both the techniques needed for and the benefits of performing awake spine surgery as well as how to develop and implement an awake spine program. Please note that there is an additional cost associated with this workshop.

There will be a welcome reception and dedicated abstract session following the workshop which will be exclusive to workshop participants.

Abstract Submissions

As part of the course, we will host a poster session for presentation of original research dedicated to the field of neurosurgery, anesthesiology, neurology, pain medicine, orthopedics, sports medicine, and physical medicine & rehabilitation. The submission deadline for abstracts is Friday October 6, 2023. Attendees are invited to submit a research abstract summarizing original clinical research, basic research work, or case presentations. If accepted, at least one author of the poster must attend the live course to present. We will have dedicated abstract sessions for the General Session as well as for the Awake Spine Pre-Conference Workshop.
