This EFORT Educational Webinar, organised by the Basic Research Group of the EFORT Education Committee, will focus on relevant updates in the domain of digitalisation in orthopaedics and traumatology, a fast-evolving field with continuous educational needs.

As digitalization accelerates across healthcare, orthopaedics and traumatology stand at the forefront of a technological revolution. This EFORT Educational Webinar bridges the gap between emerging theory and clinical reality, exploring the transformative impact of AI in trauma care, the evolving accuracy of Large Language Models in surgical education, and the life-changing potential of exoskeleton technology in patient rehabilitation.

Know about various clinically relevant uses cases of artificial intelligence (AI) in trauma care and orthopaedic surgery and the increasing body of clinical evidence available. This may support implementation of these and related AI use cases in clinical practice and further translational research towards bringing the benefits of AI to our patients.

Understand the increasing capacity of large-language-models (LLM’s) and the different performance of current models in the context of solving orthopaedic exam questions. This knowledge may change perceptions about the quality, validity, applications and limits of LLM’s as a tool for information, education or research in a clinical context.

Recognize the fast-evolving technologies around exoskeletons or wearable robots and its increasing use cases and potential in healthcare applications, particularly in orthopaedics. These insights may lead to generate new use cases, clinical adaptation, translational research and steering technological developments towards needs in O&T.
