As an institution dedicated to providing the best care to kids, experts from Scottish Rite for Children are involved with various medical organizations that support education and research. Recently, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) held its virtual national conference and exhibition. AAP is an organization with more than 67,000 pediatricians who are committed to the health and wellness of all infants, children, adolescents and young adults. Our team at Scottish Rite has an active role with AAP as they share their expertise on caring for children with orthopedic conditions and regularly serve as a resource to pediatricians and their patients.
The 2021 virtual meeting provided attendees with a well-rounded educational program that included live presentations, a virtual hall of selected poster projects and a library of on-demand sessions. Topics covered all areas of caring for children, and during a session on pediatric orthopedics, several Scottish Rite experts were selected to present their latest research. Below are a few of the presented projects:
