SUMMARY:Role of bone in post-burn muscle loss: Treatment implications
UID:159
DESCRIPTION:This webinar will introduce the pathophysiology of resorptive bone loss following burns, the role of bone in muscle loss, and how this method can prevent burn-mediated muscle wasting.\n\nKey speaker Dr Gordon L Klein, Senior Scientist and Adjunct Professor, Department of Orthopaedic Surgery and Rehabilitation, University of Texas Medical Branch, USA, will cover the rationale for using a bisphosphonate to prevent the bone loss, and describe the unexpected effect of bisphosphonates on muscle protein kinetics and net balance. Experiments which led to the mechanism underlying this effect will be covered and what the results of the experiments mean for new treatments to preserve muscle mass in burns.  \n\nWebinar topics include:\n\nThe pathophysiology of bone loss post-burn \n\nHow anti-resorptive treatment may prevent post-burn bone loss \n\nAppreciate the mechanism by which preventing bone resorption may protect against muscle wasting \n\nJoin in the conversation online using #RSMLive\nFollow us on Twitter: @RoySocMed\n\n \n\nDisclaimer: All views expressed in this webinar are of the speakers themselves and not of the RSM.\n\n \n\nSpecial rates for difficult times\n\nThe RSM wishes to offer healthcare professionals continued learning opportunities during the coronavirus pandemic. The RSM’s COVID-19 online events are available free of charge, while there will be small charges to register for other online education.
