Welcome

Welcome to the Global Spine Congress (GSC) 2019!

This eighth annual meeting for AOSpine showcases the very latest technologies and approaches in spine care.

The GSC provides an outstanding forum to exchange ideas, network with fellow spine professionals, and learn the latest research, techniques, and technologies in spine surgery. The GSC is the most important academic meeting, as well as one of the biggest gatherings, of the global spine community.

This year, the GSC features a unique scientific program with parallel sessions covering over 30 topics, along with cutting-edge innovations in spine surgery. The Scientific Program will include pre-courses, AOSpine Symposia, Society Symposia, and peer reviewed abstracts scheduled to be presented as oral or E-poster presentations. The GSC provides exclusive AOSpine members-only sessions on a variety of exciting topics.

We are delighted to announce that in total 1,501 abstracts were submitted for GSC 2019—a 36% increase in abstracts submitted compared to last year. We are convinced that the presented scientific program will encourage lively discussions among participants and generate new ideas to help advance spine care. We hope you will find it a valuable and rewarding experience.

Finally, we extend our sincere appreciation and gratitude to the spine societies, moderators, speakers, sponsors, and exhibitors, whose contributions help to make this global event possible. We are very much looking forward to this outstanding event and its unique approach to exchanging knowledge.

General Information (from A-Z)

Continuing Medical Education Accreditation The Global Spine Congress 2019 is accredited by the European Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (EACCME) to provide the following CME activity for medical specialists. The EACCME is an institution of the European Union of Medical Specialists (UEMS). www.uems.net

Each medical specialist should claim only those hours of credit that he/she actually spent in the educational activity. Through an agreement between the UEMS and the American Medical Association, physicians may convert EACCME credits to an equivalent number of AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™. Information on the process to convert EACCME credit to AMA credit can be found at www.ama-assn.org/go/internationalcme

Live educational activities occurring outside of Canada and recognized by the UEMS-EACCME for ECMEC credits are deemed to be Accredited Group Learning Activities (Section 1) as defined by the Maintenance of Certification Program of The Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada.

The online CME questionnaire will be available at: www.gsc2019.org/cme from May 19–June 8, 2019. Please note that the registration code, printed on your badge, will be required to access the CME questionnaire online. The certificate of attendance will be sent via e-mail once the online evaluation form has been completed, and your presence has been verified by the automatic control system. For this reason, it is strongly recommended that—in order to certify the attendance on-site—those interested in applying for UEMS credits allow scanning of their badges by congress staff representatives available at the CME scanning station in the registration area two times each half-day at the following times:

• Wednesday: Afternoon between 13:00 and 17:30

• Thursday: Morning between 07:20 and 12:00 Afternoon between 13:30 and 18:30

Global Spine Congress disclosure policy /Disclosure information index

It is the policy of AOSpine and the Global Spine Congress to adhere to the policies of the European Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (EACCME) in order to ensure balance, independence, objectivity, and scientific rigor in all of our educational activities. Thus, in compliance with the EACCME guidelines, all persons in control of content at the Global Spine Congress have been required to disclose to AOSpine and audience any potential, apparent, or real conflict of interest. Such persons include, but are not limited to: planning committee members, faculty, chairpersons, oral presenters.

AOSpine and the Global Spine Congress recognize that professional relationships with industry are essential for the development of spine technologies and medical advancement. These relationships in no way reflect negatively on the character of the individual.

The intent of this disclosure is not to prevent anyone with a significant financial or other relationship from making a presentation, but to provide participants with information that might be of potential importance to their evaluation of a presentation. Further, the intent of this disclosure is to ensure that all potential conflicts of interest have been identified and resolved prior to the presentations. By doing so, AOSpine and the Global Spine Congress can determine if the interests or relationships of a speaker or author have or have not influenced the presentation and/or electronic poster with regard to exposition or conclusion. Neither AOSpine nor the Global Spine Congress necessarily view these interests or relationships as implying bias or decreasing the value of the presentations.

Disclosure information will be made available visually as a second slide before each presentation as well as printed in the final program.

Conventional 2D imaging may not always provide enough information to safe-guard correct placement of screws and implants. Intraoperative 3D imaging can therefore be an important factor in improving surgical outcomes.

To provide 3D capabilities that can be seamlessly integrated into clinical routine, we developed Cios Spin®: a mobile 2D and 3D C-arm for intraoperative quality assurance. Delivering new insights and perspectives, Cios Spin gives you more certainty in surgical routine – and full control over your procedures.

New perspectives. Full control.

The University of Toronto Spine Program (local Host) 110

The University of Toronto Spine Program provides an outstanding framework for citywide collaboration in spine clinical training, research, fellowship and resident education, advocacy, and strategic planning. The Program offers a robust academic program including a series of visiting professorship, annual academic spine Day “SpineFEST”, quarterly citywide Spine Rounds and Journal Clubs.

In response to an external review in 2007 supported by the U of T Department of Surgery, the Program was established and integrated within the Divisions of Neurosurgery and Division of Orthopaedics Surgery in 2009 to evolve as an internationally recognized entity poised to enhance clinical care, research, and education. Since its inception, the program has focused on collaboration, innovation, education, and research. The Program exhibits an important academic platform incorporating spinal surgery units and research programs across the Toronto Academic Health Sciences Network “TAHSN”, particularly in the main hospitals: Toronto Western Hospital; Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre; Saint Michael’s Hospital; and the Hospital for Sick Children.

Globally, in addition to our strong affiliation with our national spine societies and health networks including the Canadian Spine Society, the program has also been building a robust relationships with international spine research societies such as the AO Spine, Cervical Spine Research Society, Scoliosis Research Society, and International Neurotrauma Society.

Under the leadership of Dr Michael Fehlings, professor of Neurosurgery, and Dr Albert Yee, Professor of Orthpaedic Surgery, Co-Directors, the Program brings together a broad interdisciplinary array of clinicians, researchers, and educators focused on disorders of the spine and spinal cord. Our Program’s unique cohort draws 30 multidisciplinary membership, spanning the continuum from bench to bedside and community, overarching neurosurgery, orthpaedic surgery, paediatric surgery, oncology, radiology, physical and occupational therapy, biomaterial and biomedical engineering, laboratory medicine and pathobiology, physiatry, and pain management.

In teaching and education, the program continues to focus on training and educating spine fellows and residents. We have trained over 100 worldwide spine fellows. The program provides surgical skills courses chaired by Dr Stephen Lewis and Dr Eric Massicotte targeting both surgeons in-training and surgeons in-practice. A Mock Oral on Spine course co-chaired by Drs Fehlings and Yee aims to prep our graduating residents for their Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons examinations. The program offers quarterly visiting professorship and annual SpineFEST to provide educational and professional networking opportunities to exchange international perspectives on research and operative and non-operative treatment of spine disorder. This year, SpineFEST is featuring scoliosis to highlight surgical treatments and optimal patient care. SpineFEST continues to present ongoing citywide clinical and preclinical research projects and look into clinical trial and emerging outcome measures.

In clinical care and research, the program continues to foster collaborative efforts in facilitating multi-centre clinical trials and data sharing agreements.. Among of which is the Riluzole in Spinal Cord Injury Study “RISCIS” led by Dr Fehlings and principally sponsored by AO Spine North America.

In patient care advocacy and global efforts, the Program has made an impact on several levels. Drs Fehlings and Rampersaud have been successful in provincial initiatives to enhance access to care and service delivery for patients with acute and chronic spine conditions. Drs Fehlings and Yee has been actively working with AO Spine NA to broadly disseminate knowledge gained from our national

competency-based fellowship training curricula. The Program, jointly with the AO Spine, spearheaded the development and establishment of the Guidelines for Acute Spinal Cord Injury and Guideline of Cervical Spondylotic Myelopathy. Dr Fehlings’ efforts in bringing in multiple international congresses to Toronto have contributed to leveraging our program’s global advocacy and outreach efforts.

The UofT Spine Program has evolved over many years to become an international dominant spine care force. Shortly after his visit to Toronto, Professor Daniel Riew, AO Spine Research Commission Chair and former Congress Chairperson, described the University of Toronto Spine Program as “the premier research and educational program for spine in the world”.

Finally, we welcome the Global Spine Congress to Toronto and we look forward to hosting such a successful and joyful event!

Ziehm Imaging GmbH 48 & 49

Ziehm Imaging was founded in Nuremberg in 1972 and is specialized in the development, production and global marketing of mobile X-ray-based imaging solutions (C-arms). The medical technology company, with its headquarters in Nuremberg has international offices in the USA, Italy, France, Finland, Singapore, China, Brazil and South Africa, and is supported by a network of global distribution partners. Ziehm Imaging generates approximately 60% of revenue from its export business.

More than 45 Years of Innovation and Research The core competence and focus on intra-operative imaging and innovative X-ray technologies are implemented consistently at Ziehm Imaging by high investment in research and development. Every day, around 12% of all Ziehm Imaging employees dedicate their work and expertise in research and development of new systems and clinical applications to enhance clinical benefits in daily clinic routine.

X-ray-based Imaging at the Highest Stage In 2006, Ziehm Imaging launched the first fully digital, mobile C-arm in the world, with a flat-panel detector that provides distortion-free, high-contrast and highly dynamic images with four times more shades of gray compared to analogue image intensifiers. Today, more than 10 years later, Ziehm Imaging has enhanced the proven flat-panel with CMOS, the latest detector technology for excellent image quality.

Further, Advanced Active Cooling technology ensures significantly longer fluoroscopy time with higher image quality during lengthy surgery and prevents overheating of the generator. The open interface Ziehm NaviPort allows a flexible integration of navigation systems by various manufacturers and enables the user to be up to date at any time.

Clinical Applications Mobile X-ray-based imaging solutions from Ziehm Imaging are used in spine surgery, orthopedics, traumatology, vascular surgery and further clinical applications. The digital C-arms are also used in interventional radiology and cardiology, and cardiac surgery. Physicians that perform complex surgical interventions have the prospect of a mobile imaging solution with the capabilities and features demanded by a fixed installed unit, with the added advantages of no installation costs and the flexibility of a mobile C-arm.

Versatile Integration Options for Greater Efficiency in the OR Ziehm Imaging's broad range of products allows versatile combinations with navigation systems from Brainlab, Stryker and Medtronic. Physicians and patients benefit from higher precision and increased image quality, especially in complex interventional applications. Further, the combination of fully digital, distortion-free imaging with navigation systems or computer aided surgery increases efficiency in the operating room. Due to intraoperative 3D imaging the risk of a second surgery and the radiation exposure for the patient can be reduced to a minimum.

Complete Product Portfolio Since 2017, Ziehm Imaging has full distribution rights for the OrthoScan mini C-arms in Europe, Middle East and Africa. In addition, Ziehm Imaging, out of its Nuremberg Global Service Center, is also providing full customer support for OrthoScan units in this region.

As the sole provider, Ziehm Imaging now covers the complete range of mobile fluoroscopy systems: from mini C-arms for delicate hand and foot surgery, to the hybrid edition, for the most challenging of cardiovascular interventions. OrthoScan Inc. and Ziehm Imaging GmbH are 100% subsidiaries of the ATON holding company.
