We are proud to welcome Dr. Sukhdeep Dulai as the 80th President of the Canadian Orthopaedic Association. A respected leader, educator, and advocate, Dr. Dulai brings a strong commitment to collaboration, mentorship, and innovation in orthopaedic care across Canada. As COA President, she is dedicated to strengthening surgeon health and well-being—because when surgeons thrive, patients receive the best possible care. With a deep understanding of the realities surgeons face, Dr. Dulai will guide the COA in fostering a supportive and inclusive professional community, grounded in shared values and a vision for the future of orthopaedics. Congratulations, Dr. Dulai, on this well-deserved honour.

As part of my work with @SSS_Foundation & Harms Study Group, we set out to determine modifiable risk factors to prevent massive blood transfusions during spinal fusions in patients with cerebral palsy. In this retrospective study, we found that a combination of optimizing preoperative nutrition status, using pedicle screw constructs when possible, and using antifibrinolytics when not contraindicated is recommended to reduce the risk of perioperative massive blood transfusions. During the study period, it was found that the rate of transfusion has decreased over time, making the surgery safer. #spinalfusion #cerebralpalsy #orthotwitter #researchpapers #research #surgery

Congratulations to Margaret Crownover, Medical Student at Sidney Kimmel Medical College, for presenting “Does Socioeconomic Status Affect Severity of Neuromuscular Scoliosis at Time of Surgery” at Thomas Jefferson University’s 2025 Scholarly Inquiry Research Symposium, where medical students showcase the results of their research project conducted over the course of their 1st and 2nd year. This poster presentation represents a culmination of work in partnership with our Cerebral Palsy Team led by Dr. Wade Shrader (@orthodawg91), the Spine Team, and our Sr. Clinical Research Coordinator, Petya Yorgova. The aim of the Scholarly Inquiry program is to equip medical students with the skills and experience necessary to become critical consumers and producers of medical knowledge. Our team always enjoys supporting these students and learning from each other. #spine #scoliosis #SDOH #disparity #healthequity #Research
