One of the key factors to ensure an optimal outcome from

orthopaedic trauma operating is theatre set up, planning and equipment availability. 

This page contains tips and tricks for surgeons and operating theatre staff to hopefully improve the efficiency in planning and executing an orthopaedic trauma operation.

The content of this page carries no official backing, it does not reflect the opinions of any of the organisations for which I work. Equally the tips and tricks sections have been developed locally with the support of the various company representatives, to which we are very grateful. They however do not constitute in any way an official technique guide and the official surgical techniques should be reviewed prior to any case. It is hoped that it will simply help those performing and enabling surgery to optimise their experience and that of their patients.
