AO In-Hospital
The new, best way for AO Trauma faculty to organize in-hospital training events for their hospital surgical staff.
Interested in running your own AO In-Hospital educational event, exclusively designed for the AO Trauma faculty members?
Currently, event packages for seven training modules are available in the dashboard:
- Acute compartment syndrome
- Polytrauma
- Management of open fractures
- Best practices in geriatric hip fractures
- Management of fracture-related infection
- Limb salvage vs amputation
- Management of elbow fractures in children
Besides content access, the platform provides everything for conveniently organizing the event at your hospital, from event registration and participant management and pre- and post-event assessments to issuing certificates of attendance.
The highly interactive modules enable AO Trauma faculty to successfully teach their hospital teams and meet their learning needs.
Each module includes:
- A pre-event assessment to identify the team’s educational needs
- Prereading material
- Didactic lectures
- Clinical case discussions
- Group discussions
- Optional practical exercises
- Post-event assessment and event reports to analyze the team's increase in knowledge
Upon completion of the pre- and post-event online assessments, participants receive certificates of attendance.
(Open to AO Trauma faculty members only)

“AO In-Hospital is designed to enable AO Trauma faculty to deliver relevant and recurring learning events at their own workplaces, in order to provide value for the entire clinical team. This should improve their patient outcomes while expanding the scope of the AO's high-quality educational offerings.”
