Young Member’s Institute: Complications Seminar for Residents

SUBMIT YOUR RESIDENCY PROGRAM’S MOST COMPLICATED CASE TODAY!

The Foundation for Podiatric Medicine is pleased to announce that we will be hosting a Complications Seminar from 8:00 am-3:00 pm on Saturday, January 25th as part of the 2025 New York Clinical Conference. Past year’s Complications Seminar have been greeted with tremendous enthusiasm and serves as an opportunity to highlight the great training our students, residents and fellows receive. Take part in this annual interactive program as local residency programs present their complications and how they are treated. Plus, take advantage of the opportunity to give programs your insight on how to resolve their complications. Residents from the Tri-State area and beyond are invited to present on any type of complication from surgical, medical or diagnostic issues. Open discussion and questions will be encouraged. The audience may also bring complications that can be discussed as a group for treatment consensus or opinions. Residency Directors and/or Assistant Directors are encouraged to attend and participate. All Residency Directors/Assistant Directors must be registered for NY25 in order to attend the Complications Seminar.

GROUND RULES

  1. Residents may present a case complication via PowerPoint in one of three topics: Surgical, Medical, or Diagnostic
  2. Each residency program is limited to ONE case presentation. The management of this case should be consolidated to a 10-minute presentation.
  3. A diagnostic dilemma should be identified in each case. 
  4. Cases with some follow-ups are encouraged, as they will foster a richer discussion.
  5. Discussion will occur from both an academic perspective and risk management perspective based on the types of cases presented. Discussion will be split into 10–15-minute sessions following several case presentations. Case presentations will be arranged into blocks to allow for an appropriate amount of time for discussion following the case presentations. 

Proposals should include the title of your presentation, a brief synopsis (500 words or less), name(s) of resident(s) presenting, and name of residency program. PROPOSALS FOR PRESENTATIONS SHOULD BE SENT TO nyclinicalconference@nyspma.org BY WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 4, 2024. The Seminar will be open to all conference attendees, with a special invitation extended to current students. It is recommended that one representative from each program be present for the entirety of the case presentations out of respect for all programs presenting. Awards will be presented for the 1st, 2nd and 3rd place programs and will be judged by a panel of selected judges. Sleeping rooms will be provided on either Friday, 1/24 or Saturday, 1/25 at the NY Marriott Marquis by The Foundation for Podiatric Medicine to the presenters of the first five cases submitted. Don’t miss out on the chance to present on the main stage at the best podiatric conference in the country!
