Ortho Traumapedia is designed to provide quick access to information important to the treatment of adult skeletal trauma. Based on extensive literature review, Ortho Traumapedia compiles the current standard of care in a high-yield, easy to use format including dozens of original images to help visualize fracture patterns and radiologic findings. 

Originally developed by orthopedic surgeons for orthopedic surgeons, practitioners of all levels and specialties who encounter adult skeletal trauma will find Ortho Traumapedia useful as a condensed reference and educational tool. Whether you’re a primary care or emergency physician, physician’s assistant, nurse practitioner, resident or medical student, Ortho Traumapedia provides highly pertinent information regarding skeletal trauma right at your fingertips. 

Ortho Traumapedia is organized into chapters by bone (for fractures) and joint (for dislocations). Each chapter is divided into four sections: Facts, Imaging, Classification and Treatment: 

Facts begins with epidemiology and common injury mechanisms. This is followed by an outline of pertinent anatomy, eponyms and variants. Finally, patient presentation, examination and management tips are presented. 

Imaging begins with the standard radiographic examinations for each anatomic region. This is followed by injury-specific views, relevant metrics and findings as well as supplemental modalities. 

Classification outlines the most common classification systems used to describe the selected injury. 

Treatment begins with general treatment principles and reviews treatment in the acute setting. This is followed by standard of care options grouped by injury pattern. Common complications associated with the injury are included at the end of this section. 

Simply select the bone or joint you’re interested in from the main menu and navigate between the four sections with the buttons on the bottom of the screen. Return to the main menu by pressing the left arrow in the title bar. There's never been a simpler, more mobile skeletal trauma reference!

### 3/5 — Loved this app

*2025-08-25*

This app was and I think still is the best orthopedic app that was ever made unfortunately it has been abandoned and is unable to work properly on new OS versions. Does not render correctly and cannot toggle bottom buttons which took you to different sections of within specific anatomic locations. Would love if they would pick up the mantle again as this app is invaluable in orthopedic and emergency medicine practice for reference

### 2/5 — Do not Purchase

*2022-11-18*

Was a great app until iPhones did updates and now it’s no longer compatable

### 1/5 — I used to love this but it’s over now- unless it’s updated

*2021-11-15*

Have used this daily until it suddenly didn’t fit in screen of my new IPhone 11 - now can’t access half the info
Save your money and try different app

### 1/5 — App incompatible with iPhone 11

*2020-07-04*

The bottom of the app is cut off and the tabs are inaccessible with the iPhone 11. The app needs to be updated to allow for use with iPhone 11. Do not spend your $10 until they update the app...

### 1/5 — Not great

*2020-02-13*

App seriously needs to be improved. You can’t zoom in on the radiographs, and the colour of font chosen for labelling is next to impossible to read on a phone screen.

### 5/5 — iOS 11 update

*2018-03-01, version 2.0.79*

Thank you for the update!

### 5/5 — BEST ORTHO TRAUMA MOBILE REFERENCE EVER

*2018-02-27*

This App is THE best Ortho Trauma app that has ever been created period. I have been traveling to work for years, and this app so far surpasses anything else out there, that it is not even a race. It is well arranged, concise, accurate, and complete. I cannot even think of a way to improve on it; it’s just that good. When this APP quit working because it needed to be upgraded to the new iOS, I tried to replace it and searched everything available. I bought 6 or 7 APPs that were a waste of time and money. Look no further, I guarantee you will not be disappointed. 👍👍👍

### 4/5 — Update this app please. We buy this app not free.

*2018-02-16, version 2.0.68*

Cant open once updated i0s. Pls update this app

### 3/5 — Doesn’t work with iOS11

*2018-01-26*

Good app but does not work with iOS 11

### 5/5 — iOS 11 update please!

*2018-01-15*

This app has been helpful, however it no longer works for iOS 11.  Please release compatible update.  Thank you.
