I Traumatology Bioengineering 4.0 Competition

First Competition for the Implementation of Bioengineering 4.0 technologies in the resolution of complex surgeries.

OBJECTIVE

Stimulate collaboration between Biomedical Engineering and Traumatology for scientific advancement within the PQx_PlanificacionQuirurgica.com community.

The objective of this award is to promote the use of new technologies in the resolution of complex trauma surgeries. To promote the application of surgical planning and navigation systems that use customized anatomical biomodels, navigable cutting guides and customized implants, with navigation systems that minimize the use of conventional radiology, reduce surgical times and increase healthcare productivity by improving the ergonomics of operating room staff.

The aim is for the surgeon to perform complex surgeries offering the patient SURGICAL EXCELLENCE with improved surgeon satisfaction and ergonomics.

Also, the aim is to stimulate the training of traumatology residents and scientific dissemination with the development of publications and quality scientific dissemination.

MODALITY AND ENDOWMENT

The 1st edition of the BIO ENGINEERING 4.0 COMPETITION consists of a main prize of four thousand euros (4,000€) and an extra bonus of one thousand euros (1,000€), if published in a journal included in JCR (Journal Citation Reports).
