Great to see the results of the study undergoing analysis- really important and useful information coming through - abstracts going in and paper coming together- stay in touch! @OTrauma @bota_uk @CornetResearch

Final push in our final week! Lets break 300!

Remember that for collaborative authorship, each local collaborator needs to upload at least one patient under their individual REDcap login!

Distal femur fractures were a topic of controversy at last weeks OTA. Help us define current UK practice - How quickly do we get to theatre? What do we do when we get there? What do we do post-op? @SouthTeesOrtho @bota_uk @CornetResearch @YorkshireORC

[KNEE Study @StudyKnee]

Cases numbers have really taken off during the first 10 days of November! Thankyou to all collaborators! Still not too late to get involved if you're not registered! @SouthTeesOrtho @bota_uk @CornetResearch @YorkshireORC

Fantastic to see Core Surgical Training finally awarding points for collaborative authorship @STARSurgUK @EuroSurg @CovidSurg Breakthrough! 🤩

Amazing news for collaborative research! @OrthoSingh @FFPOM_Study @TheOPENStudy @PPAK_Study @DQAElbows @thePHDstudy @StudyKnee @bota_uk @CornetResearch @orcapaedics

https://t.co/hK4x2SWom1 - Longer time to surgery for distal femur compared to proximal, higher mortality at 30 days, 6 months and 1 year. Is this the same nationwide? What's stopping us getting to theatre? Help us find out! @bota_uk @YorkshireOrtho @SouthTeesOrtho

[KNEE Study @StudyKnee]

50 patients submitted in the first month, though our projections were of 400 over the four months. They must be out there somewhere! Still not to late to get involved, lets hit that 400! @bota_uk

[KNEE Study @StudyKnee]

Cases continue to come in! Thanks to all those collaborators who've hit the ground running. Not too late to get involved! Can still register via link in profile!

[Sohail Nisar @Sohail_Orthopod]

Great talking to/ learning from other trainees today @BritOrthopaedic about how to deliver collaborative studies like @PPAK_Study

Our first full week of data collection is live, any patients over the age of 60 presenting with a fracture around the knee!

If you're not yet registered don't worry, still time to sign up and contribute. Link is in our bio!

[KNEE Study @StudyKnee]

Still 10 days before data collection begins! Thanks to those who have got their paperwork in and are set to go! Still plenty of time to get registered and join us in defining current practice surrounding fragility fractures around the knee!

[KNEE Study @StudyKnee]

Best of luck @BOAORTHOPOD !

[ORTHOPOD TRAUMA @BOAORTHOPOD]

We are off! Day one of data collection across the UK. Cases and available resources every Monday & daily list content and time to theatre every day for the next two months! So much data nationally and in house audit against BOAST available. Time for change! @BritOrthopaedic

[Chris Bretherton @BrethertonC]

Hopefully, @WAX_trial results will help the debate for ankles.

But do we need a randomised study around the knee? @Complex_FracPSP and @RCSnews team in July seemed to think so!

Either way - @StudyKnee is probably the next step. Looking forward to this kicking off soon 🦵!

[KNEE Study @StudyKnee]

@drumairrk Study starts September 1st so should have plenty of time to get registration sorted!

[KNEE Study @StudyKnee]

Sixty-three expressions of interest so far, still time to get registered - link in bio.

For those who have already received documents, make sure to get them signed off ASAP so that REDcap logins can be provided and we can get started come September 1st!

[KNEE Study @StudyKnee]

TrAFFix struggled with equipoise and unpredicted non surgical care @BMJ_Open https://t.co/JyNxqIYA76 clearly there is a need to understand this injury better - get your site registered! Starting September @orthocollab @OrthoSingh @OTrauma @Williameardley
