This month’s issue features a story on an underrecognized problem among surgeons: chronic pain in the hands, neck, and back due to long hours of operating. In a related story, the AAOS has issued guidelines on, and rated the strength of, evidence for treatment of carpal tunnel syndrome.
Don’t miss the commentary from Dr. Layton F. Rikkers, Editor-in-Chief of ACS Surgery News, on the value of input from the quiet or introverted members of a team, and how to elicit their participation.
