Description
Description
Translational Orthopedics: Designing and Conducting Translational Research covers the principles of evidence-based medicine and applies these principles to the design of translational investigations. Readers will come to fully understand important concepts, including case-control study, prospective cohort study, randomized trial, and reliability study. Medical researchers will benefit from greater confidence in their ability to initiate and execute their own investigations, avoid common pitfalls in translational orthopedics, and know what is needed in collaboration. Further, this title is an indispensable tool in grant writing and funding efforts.
The practical, straightforward approach helps the aspiring investigator navigate challenging considerations in study design and implementation. The book provides valuable discussions of the critical appraisal of published studies in translational orthopedics, allowing the reader to learn how to evaluate the quality of such studies with respect to measuring outcomes and to make effective use of all types of evidence in patient care. In short, this practical guidebook will be of interest to every Medical Researcher or Orthopedist who has ever had a good clinical idea but not the knowledge of how to test it.

Joseph Abboud
Dr. Abboud is a Board Certified Orthopaedic Surgeon and specializes in the treatment of patients with shoulder and elbow disorders. He is an internationally recognized authority on the treatment of shoulder and elbow disorders. He is a Professor of Orthopaedic Surgery at the Sidney Kimmel Medical College of Thomas Jefferson University and a core member of the teaching faculty for Rothman Orthopaedics. Dr. Abboud received his medical degree with honors from Georgetown University School of Medicine and went on to complete his residency in Orthopaedic surgery at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania where he served as the administrative chief resident and received the award. He subsequently completed two (one-year) fellowships at the University of Pennsylvania in Shoulder and Elbow surgery and Orthopaedic Biomechanics. Dr. Abboud has published over 250 peer reviewed publications, given over 600 invited lectures nationally and internationally, and published several textbooks and numerous book chapters. He has received the prestigious Neer award and Burkhardt award for excellence in research. Dr. Abboud performs a wide variety of simple and complex surgical procedures on the shoulder and elbow including arthroscopic surgery (e.g. rotator cuff repairs, instability surgery) comprehensive fracture care, as well as shoulder and elbow replacement (arthroplasty) procedures. Dr. Abboud is most proud of the fact that he has been caring for patients throughout the Philadelphia region and the Northeast region of the United States.
