April 2025 Show Notes
Drs. Jill Larson and Vineeta Swaroop from Northwestern University and Lurie Children’s Hospital in Chicago join the podcast for a journal club-style discussion of their group’s studies concerned with care for children with Spina Bifida and Neuromuscular Conditions. The lightening round articles touch on determination of femoral anteversion in the operating room, regional anesthesia for hip surgeries, and the value of tapping for pedicle screws during spine deformity surgery.
Your hosts are Craig Louer (Vanderbilt University), Carter Clement (Manning Family Children's Hospital in New Orleans), Tyler McDonald (University of South Alabama), and Will Morris (Scottish Rite for Children).
