Greg Caesar, COPM-C, Senior Partner and Director of Business Development at Medfluence, said that the AOCOO-HNS Clinical Assembly in New Orleans will feature sessions on surgical skills, leadership, tinnitus management, and airway innovations. The statement was made during an interview.
"Having reviewed the AOCOO-HNS Clinical Assembly agenda, I identified at least four sessions that seem particularly valuable for physicians attending the event," said Caesar COPM-C, Senior Partner, Director of Business Development. "The ENT: Hands-On Sinus Cadaver Course led by Dr. Ian Humphreys on Wednesday offers an exceptional hands-on learning experience and Dr. Anna Pou's keynote address, Surviving the Storms of Life, will be an inspiring highlight on Thursday. I am eager to attend Dr. Adam Master's session on Pulsatile Tinnitus scheduled for Friday. Saturday's Sleep: Airway Insights session featuring Dr. Andrew Huang, Dr. Mary Musso, and Dr. Supat Thammasitboon will also showcase critical advancements in airway stimulation."

Additionally, the event features research papers and poster competitions aimed at fostering academic excellence among residents and students. The assembly aims to enhance the quality of training and education within the osteopathic community.
From 1998 to 2006, there was a notable shift in sinus surgery techniques among Medicare beneficiaries. The rate of endoscopic sinus surgeries increased by 20%, from 0.72 to 0.92 per 1,000 individuals, while open sinus surgeries declined by 40% during the same period. This trend reflects a preference for less invasive procedures due to reduced recovery times and improved patient outcomes. These findings were reported in a study published by the JAMA Network.
