New Systematic Review: Intramedullary nailing shows superior outcomes for femur #fractures in Sub-Saharan Africa, but #research gaps and variable management persist.

Urgent focus needed on burden, resources & cost-effective solutions.

Well done to all involved.

Research discussions were our focus, but it was not all work and no play for our first #globalinjurygroup meeting. We climbed Lions Head, tasted wine at Cape Town’s finest wine farms and toured the city, taking in all its’ beauty.

We look forward to future meetings with all of our collaborators.
