Welcome to the Bone Break podcast, an innovative educational resource designed by Canadian Orthopaedic Surgery residents and medical students. Our podcast stands as a cornerstone for medical students aiming to excel in their orthopaedic rotations by distilling complex principles into easy-to-understand, high-yield concepts.

A word from your host, Dr. Kaid van Kampen

“Bone Break” is a podcast that was inspired by my own experiences in medical school as I tried to read around cases and learn orthopaedics during electives. I found that orthopaedic medical education is tailored towards residents and attendings, and I did not have the attention span to listen to an hour-long podcast. Some of my favourite teaching moments were when seniors and fellows talked me through a topic in about ten minutes before a case. This podcast seeks to provide medical students with the relevant information needed to excel on their orthopaedic rotations during a quick coffee break, walk or commute. Through case-based learning, this podcast outlines key topics that are relevant to high yield orthopedic contents.

Mastering the principles of Orthopaedic Surgery, one break at a time.
