Feelin' Groovy: Sensate Reconstruction from Head to Toe Friday, October 10 Fri, Oct 10 8:00-9:30 a.m. CDT
Explore the cutting-edge techniques and advances in sensory restoration during reconstructive procedures across the entire body. This comprehensive panel brings together leading experts to discuss innovative approaches for preserving and restoring sensation following trauma, oncologic resection, and congenital deformities. From facial nerve reconstruction to extremity reinnervation, this session will provide practical insights into optimizing functional outcomes while maintaining aesthetic results. Join us for an interactive discussion on how sensate reconstruction transforms patients' quality of life and enhances their connection to the reconstructed body part.
Upon completion of this learning activity, participants should be able to:
- Identify key anatomical considerations and nerve pathways essential for sensate reconstruction in different body regions
- Compare and contrast current microsurgical techniques for nerve coaptation, conduits, and allografts
- Evaluate patient-reported outcome measures specific to sensory recovery
- Apply evidence-based protocols for post-operative sensory rehabilitation
- Recognize common complications in sensate reconstruction and implement strategies for prevention and management
