This one and a half day session is comprised of 34 papers and six main symposia, which includes the two International Orthopaedic Trauma Association symposia.Attendees of the International Trauma Care Forum will collaborate with the attendees of the Basic Science Focus Forum and exchange ideas during their joint session symposium. This combined session has proved to be a great way to come together to discuss ideas with basic science researchers.LEARNINGOBJECTIVESUpon successful completion of the 2024 InternationalTrauma Care Forum, participants will be able to: 1. Assess current utilization of navigation and intraoperative 3D imaging for pelvic and acetabular trauma.2. Compare existing global rehabilitation systems.3. Review management techniques for upper and lower extremity traumatic injuries.4. Outline lessons learned in the management of war-time and ballistic injuries.5. Discuss concepts in open fracture manage-ment, including those sustained under less common conditions.WEDNESDAY-THURSDAY, OCTOBER 23-24, 2024INTERNATIONAL TRAUMA CARE FORUM MONTREAL CONVENTION CENTER, ROOM 510ACWEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 2311:45 AM – 12:35 PM, ROOM 517A JOINT INTERNATIONAL INDUSTRY LUNCH SESSIONSponsored by: Zimmer BiometSYMPOSIA• Navigation and Intraoperative 3D Imaging in Pelvic and Acetabular Trauma• COLOMBIA – GUEST NATION SYMPOSIUM Unconventional Open Fractures in Colombia• IOTA Symposium: Rehabilitation Systems: A Global Comparison• UKRAINE – GUEST NATION SYMPOSIUM Management of Musculoskeletal War Injuries• COMBINED GUEST NATION SYMPOSIUM Management of Gunshot Injuries• IOTA Symposium: Unstable Pelvic Fractures in Patients with Hemodynamic Instability: Global Treatment Controversies• Joint BSFF/ITCF Symposium: Current Management in Orthopedic Infection: Biolms: What Are They and How Do We Prevent Them?Theodore Miclau III, MD, FIOTA Chair (left)Hans-Christoph Pape, MD, FACS, FIOTA Co-Chair (center)Paul Whiting, MD, FIOTA Co-Chair (right) KJ Ponsen, MD, PhD, FIOTAMiguel Daccarett, MDBrian Bernstein, MBBS, FIOTA Fee for LMIC $25 and Non-Member Students $ 25 $ 35
