Led by former European Shoulder Associates (ESA) President Dr. Boris (Slovenia) and Dr. Pol (Netherlands), the course combined expert guidance with high-fidelity cadaveric simulation, enabling surgeons to master advanced joint procedures in a realistic, risk-free learning environment.
EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING: Cadaveric training is widely regarded as the highest f idelity model for procedural skill acquisition in orthopaedic surgery. Guided by the principles of experiential learning and deliberate practice, this master class allowed surgeons to repeatedly execute complex techniques while receiving immediate, real-time technical feedback from expert faculty.
ANATOMICAL FIDELITY: From a scientific standpoint, the cadaveric model offers unmatched educational benefits by preserving native anatomical relationships and normal structural variations.
REALISTIC TISSUE HANDLING: It provides realistic tissue handling and biomechanical resistance that closely mimic live surgery, enabling surgeons to recognize and correct technical errors before entering a clinical operating room.
IMPROVED TECHNICAL PERFORMANCE: Multiple peer-reviewed studies confirm that this structured simulation directly improves technical performance including tunnel positioning, graft placement accuracy, and overall procedural efficiency which translates directly into enhanced patient safety.
Hands-on Training Across Knee & Shoulder Arthroscopy
The comprehensive scientific curriculum required participants to complete entire operative workflows, covering patient positioning, portal placement, diagnostic arthroscopy, therapeutic procedures, and implant insertion techniques. The practical modules were deeply integrated with Auxein’s advanced sports medicine portfolio to blend biomechanical principles directly into surgical execution.

Connecting Clinical Expertise with Research & Innovation
Beyond technical training, the DAIS Cadaver Workshop served as an international platform for peer-to-peer knowledge exchange and research development. Training side-by-side allowed surgeons from different healthcare systems to share surgical pearls, case experiences, and clinical decision-making strategies.
The event also facilitated direct collaboration between clinical innovators and the Auxein Research & Development team.
Dr. Boris and Dr. Pol utilized the workshop to demonstrate several innovative instruments developed through years of clinical research, including:
Advancing Surgical Precision. Improving Patient Outcomes.
The primary goal of the DAIS education framework is to improve patient outcomes worldwide through enhanced surgical precision.
Clinical evidence demonstrates that structured bioskills training yields:
These benefits are critical in arthroscopic surgery, where confined working spaces demand exceptional spatial orientation and technical expertise.
By combining:
Auxein Medical continues to drive a paradigm shift from observational learning to active skill acquisition.
This successful German masterclass reflects Auxein’s ongoing commitment to advancing orthopedic education and surgical excellence. Stay tuned for upcoming DAIS education courses as we continue to build a global educational platform connecting surgeons, researchers, and industry partners.
