Last week and the physicians of the Sports Medicine Center welcomed about 275 guests to the 44th Annual Oscar Miller Day research symposium. 
 
Oscar Miller Day is a celebrated, regional orthopedics-focused continuing medical education event attended by healthcare practitioners, physical and occupational therapists, and athletic trainers from all over the Southeast. All day, industry leaders in Hand, Foot and Ankle, Sports Medicine, Pediatrics, and Spine subspecialties talk about how they diagnose and treat sports-related injuries in their own varied practices.
 
Among those speaker were team physicians for professional football, baseball and soccer leagues where they discussed the ins and outs of caring for professional athletes in a roundtable discussion. 
 
Thank you to all who attended and we look forward to the 45th Oscar Miller Day next fall!

Congratulations to Dr. Andrew Abadeer on winning two recent awards! 🎉

Dr. Abadeer is wrapping up his Fellowship with the team at the OrthoCarolina Hand Center and is adding the Atrium Fellow Teaching Award and the Regional Fellowship Research Award to his growing list of achievements.

He is the first fellow to earn both awards in the same year and continues the OC Hand Center’s legacy by earning the Teaching Award- that team has received nearly two-thirds of awards since the program’s inception.

To all of OC’s 17 Fellows in the Class of 2025: Your hard work, dedication to research, and talent made this year one for the record books. As this year’s fellowships wrap up, we can’t wait to see what you all accomplish next!

Join us in congratulating these Residency graduates! 🎓🎉

Partnerships with global research institutions are paramount to the work we do to make lives better. One of the partners in our own backyard is the Atrium Health Carolina’s Medical Center Orthopedic Surgery Residency program who honored six residency graduates and their impactful research today.

We could not be more proud of the impactful research each of these individuals have produced alongside our team and we wish them all the best as they continue on to fellowships and medical practice.

Key Research Takeaways from OCRI’s Groundbreaking Opioid-Free Surgery Research:
🔸 We found a safe and effective opioid alternative during and after surgery.
🔸 Starting at 12 hours after surgery, patients in the opioid free group had significantly less pain than the patients that took opioids.
🔸 Patients in the opioid free group were significantly more comfortable at 12 and 24 hours after surgery.
🔸 At 6 weeks, patients in the opioid free group were more satisfied with their pain control.

OCRI needs your help this Giving Tuesday!

💊 Your donation helps us tell more people about opioid alternatives and stops addictive pills from reaching your community.

🔬Research shows reducing the number of opioid prescriptions that go home with patients ultimately means there is less chance of highly addictive pills circulating in our communities which leads to less addiction and reduced risk of overdose.
