💡 Speaker Spotlight: Keith Tucker 📅 25th November 2024 📍 Catalyst Building, Newcastle Upon Tyne “My presentation will focus on the importance of collecting data about Joint Replacements (TJRS). ODEP and NJR were instituted over 20 years ago in the wake of the Capital Hip disaster. Until then very little data was collected about the performance of TJRS. Undoubtedly they have both contributed to the improvement of standards in TJR surgery as over the years the revision rates have steadily improved. Beyond Compliance (BC) was set up by the BOA and MHRA in 2012 in the wake of the Metal on Metal problems. Much of the data leading to the understanding of the metal on metal nightmare came from the UK implant retrieval centres; a fact they have a right to be proud. The problems that we have encountered in data collection and analysis, such as “Camouflage” will be aired. When we set up BC we hoped that all new devices would be appropriately analysed in a recognised explant laboratory but, to date, that has not been achieved. I hope this meeting will help to improve this state of affairs.” Orthopaedic Data Evaluation Panel (ODEP) Conference tickets available here: https://lnkd.in/dz9DKx75

💡 Speaker Spotlight: Rebecca Owen 📅 25th November 2024 📍 Catalyst Building, Newcastle Upon Tyne 'A regulators perspective on implant retrieval analysis and its role in patient safety: Participants can expect to hear about our current regulatory processes and where we see explant analysis having the most impact both now and in the future. It will also explore how this component integrates into the broader framework to improve patient safety.' Conference tickets available here: https://lnkd.in/dz9DKx75
💡 Speaker Spotlight: Tom Joyce 📅 25th November 2024 📍 Catalyst Building, Newcastle Upon Tyne Talk 1: Provisionally titled 'Joint replacement: one of the great success stories of modern surgery.' "Here I plan to outline the remarkable developments in joint replacements, starting from a time, less than 100 years ago, where there were no treatments for severe joint destruction, and people lived in severe pain until they could take it no more. I plan to cover the wide range of artificial joints developed over the years, beginning with hips and knees, but not forgetting shoulders, elbows, wrists, fingers, thumbs, ankles, toes and the spine. I will focus on the massive successes that have been achieved and support all of this with data from my 2024 book, Joint Replacement in the Human Body: https://lnkd.in/egsBjdAA" Talk 2: Provisionally titled 'Explant analysis of spinal rods from children with scoliosis.' "Here, I will outline the analysis of an apparently paradigm-changing design of spinal rod that was approved by NICE in 2014. Informed by explants sent from multiple spinal centres in the UK and beyond, through peer-reviewed publications and engagement with the MHRA, the result was a moratorium on implantation in the UK for almost 4 years. This suspension was unprecedented in the history of orthopaedics, yet it shows how collaborative action based on explant analysis can serve to protect patients from potentially risky medical implants."

Founder of ExplantLab, an organisation exploring the links between genetics & the performance of medical devices
This conference is only nine weeks away – getting very close to the cut off for you to book leave from clinical duties should you wish to attend. I guarantee, it will be worth attending – either in person or online. Why should you attend? There is an excellent speaker line-up, at a lovely venue, in a great city. We will run through the success of #jointreplacement surgery, but also discuss what happens when devices malfunction - from historical examples to present day issues facing surgeons in the NHS. Why are we still throwing medical devices away in 2024? We will make the case for routine analysis - surgeons, patients, manufacturers, lawyers and regulators will all provide their perspective. While most manufacturers are taking part, some of the biggest companies have chosen not to support the conference - an example of the complexities surrounding attempts to put things in place to improve patient safety. Finally, I will be presenting the latest results from the Arthrogenex study – the largest project in the world looking at implant performance, metal debris release and immunogenetic responses. I will present the evidence as to why I believe blood metal ion testing should be as routine as taking x-rays, and why we need to choose the right biomaterials for #arthroplasty based on patient genetics. Hope to see you there, and attendees are welcome to visit the retrieval lab itself, which is located next to the lecture theatre. Please consider resharing to your network, this is a worthwhile initiative.

💡 Speaker Spotlight: Dr Pauline McCormack 📅 25th November 2024 📍 Catalyst Building, Newcastle Upon Tyne 'Patient narratives about problems with their hip implant are the wellspring from which scientific evidence emerges which can indicate widespread implant failure. By obstructing these narratives the regulatory system undermines the very evidence it needs to operate effectively.' Conference tickets available here: https://lnkd.in/dz9DKx75
💡 Speaker Spotlight: Mr Richard Beaver 📅 25th November 2024 📍 Catalyst Building, Newcastle Upon Tyne The aim of the event is to share meaningful insights on the physical analysis of retrieved implants and to discuss this crucial information to improve patient safety.
