Message from the President of Pakistan

Dr. Arif Alvi

I would like to express my deepest respect to all our distinguished orthopedic surgeons and participants at 35 Pak orthocon 2022.

Each and every skillful hand attending this great Orthopaedic Conference is doing utmost to fulfill their responsibilities in spite of any kind of difficult order to ensure the healthy life of all the people. Community representing here in orthocon not only protects the health of the people of Pakistan but also proposes recommendations to ensure that Pakistani healthcare is moving in the right direction.

The mission of every doctor is to make every effort without regard to help people before eyes who are ill. This mission entails accompanying patients on their journey through life, from birth until death, working together with them to make their lives healthier.

Looking into the current situation, the medical environment has been changing by rapid progress and this growth is possible to achieve because of the tremendous efforts you all are putting day and night. Orthocon is the milestone. Pakistan healthcare system received high praise from renowned countries due to the expertise and grooming workshops for universal health coverage.

As society ages, issues within healthcare field are increasing, I therefore propose realizing a society of healthy minds in which people are able to continue to participate actively in life even in old age.

We the doctors community have been able to move forward by transforming the past experiences in overcoming various disaster into source of strength and wisdom. It gives a great sense of pleasure that we can see our doctors who are deeply involved in improving the lives of the people living in the community with out regard for themselves, to help people before their eyes, surmounting national boundaries, religious and ethnic differences, gender and barriers.

The international sister Organizations, SICOT, APOA, OASAC, Pan Arab Orthopaedic Association are also collaborating with us and we are expecting that this conference will be one of the largest Orthopaedic conferences to date in our country, with renowned national and international speakers from around the world will gather to share their experience.

35th Pak OrthoCon 2022 will be a wonderful opportunity for young Orthopaedic surgeons of our country to take advantage of a wealth of knowledge in the form of workshops, lectures, free paper sessions, symposia and presentations on recent advancements in Orthopaedics. This conference will reinforce and foster the POA mission to promote advancement of science and the art of Orthopaedics and traumatology at an international level for the improvement of patient care, development of research and education and to facilitate the exchange of professional experience and fellowship opportunities.

Scientific Committee lead by Dr Sajjad Orakzai is working hard, day and night for arranging state of the art scientific programs. There will be plenary sessions, seminars, symposia, video sessions and Hands on workshops.

We hope and pray that this conference will be a great success InshaAllah and request you all to participate enthusiastically and submit your papers. We hope the conference will be of professional and personal benefit to all of us We are looking forward to meet you all.

Message from the Chairman Senate

It is always heartening for me to see organisations embarking upon promising endeavours with supreme finesse. The Pakistan Orthopaedic Association has been taking commendable leaps towards improving the orthopaedic services and practices in Pakistan. The 35th Conference is one such effort that annually brings together all the stakeholders from the orthopaedic community in Pakistan to share their knowledge and experiences, along with solutions and way forward.

To achieve success in any field, hard work and dedication can make or break the outcome. The Pakistan Orthopaedic Association continues to play a very proactive and responsible role to educate all the stakeholders to help each other grow and progress, which is commendable. With fresh and innovative ideas, using modern technology through apps, online services, social media, and more can help connect doctors and patients even over long distances. In this respect, we must also strive to reach out to remote and rural populations who have no access to specialised healthcare. Additionally, emergency protocols must be further developed to ensure timely and effective healthcare to victims of accidents.

Awareness campaigns through both tangible and technological means can help educate our citizens about the effects of diet and routines on bone health. In particular, awareness related to Vitamin D deficiencies, arthritis, osteoporosis and other bone related problems and deficiencies can enable us to take preventive measures for healthier and happier lives.

It is my hope that the Pakistan Orthopaedic Association will continue to promote a greater understanding of our healthcare system and positively impact the lives of ordinary Pakistanis. My best wishes and support reside with the organisation to attain greater progress in the future as well, InshaAllah.

The Congress will be held from 17th-20th November, 2022 at Serena Hotel, Islamabad and theme of conference is “Innovations-shaping the future of Orthopedic surgery”. This will highlight the most advanced strategies in common orthopaedic conditions through the advanced techniques and expect to meet thought leaders, renowned Orthopaedic surgeons, government pioneers, academia, researchers and technology providers who will be sharing their knowledge in the format of presentations, discussions, workshops providing a unique educational programme and a great opportunity to review the latest developments in the Orthopaedic field.
We expect participation of more than 1500 Orthopaedic surgeons from all over the country with a large number of esteemed foreign faculty delivering keynote/ State of art lectures.
The congress will be supported by multiple renowned regional and international associations and media partners.
The Scientific Programme has been prepared with a variety of innovative and educational topics which will cater to both junior and senior Orthopaedic surgeons as well as Allied health professionals.
