Registration is now open for the 2018 American College of Surgeons (ACS) Trauma Quality Improvement Program (TQIP®) Annual Scientific Meeting and Training, November 16–18 at the Hilton Anaheim, CA.
The meeting will convene trauma medical directors, program managers, coordinators, and registrars from participating and prospective TQIP hospitals. Colonel (Ret.) John B. Holcomb, MD, FACS, who served as a general surgeon in Somalia during the 1993 Black Hawk Down incident, will deliver the keynote address. The program will include sessions for new TQIP centers, new staff at existing centers, and participants in need of a TQIP refresher. Breakout sessions will focus on registrar and abstractor concerns, matters that relate to the trauma medical director, and trauma program manager-focused issues that will enhance the learning experience and instruct participants about their role on the TQIP team.
