This annual Basic Orthopaedic Biomechanics course started in year 2004 in conjunction with the Orthopaedic Advance Surgical Training Syllabus in Singapore. Starting in year 2009, this course is conducted in two parts. Orthopaedic trainees should take Part 1 and Part 2 on different years. Part 1 consists of bone mechanics, upper and lower limb mechanics and practical sessions. Part 2 consists of revision, spine mechanics, soft tissues and practical sessions.
The objective of this course is to allow participants to understand the biomechanics of spine and soft tissues. With the appreciation of the engineering aspects of biomechanics, participants will be equipped to initiate research projects that interest them.
