OT-World 2018: Digitalisation & Evidence
At the OT World-Congress – 15 to 18 May 2018 in Leipzig, Germany – orthotists and prosthetists, pedorthists and engineers, doctors and therapists from all over the world are brought together to share improved care options for the benefit of patients.
Speakers from the industry, the skilled trades, the academic, scientific and medical communities ensure that the agenda is set for treatments using modern aids, prostheses and orthoses – and not only in Germany. With over 20,000 visitors from more than 80 countries and some 550 exhibitors, OTWorld in Leipzig is the world's leading trade fair for prosthetics, orthotics, orthopaedic footwear technology, compression therapy and technical rehabilitation. Issues relating to the use of evidence and digitalisation in treatments using mechanical aids will come under particular scrutiny at the next event. Because of these influences, the entire healthcare system is facing a radical change, which is also impacting on orthopaedic technology. Both at the World Congress and in the international trade fair, OTWorld will, under the overall notion of Orthopaedics 4.0, throw the spotlight on important developments, trends and challenges for orthopaedic technology tomorrow.
