At UNC Orthopaedics, he led creation of the Department\u2019s \u201cboot camp\u201d that annually equips first-year residents with specialty-specific OR and clinical skills\/techniques in their first week in training. Dr. Ostrum is credited with incorporating simulation (SIM) at UNC&#8217;s Orthopaedic Surgical Skills Lab as an essential means of procedural teaching in orthopaedics training. For his excellence in guiding learners toward skills mastery, senior residents named Dr. Ostrum as the Frank Wilson, MD Faculty Teaching Award recipient in 2014.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Dr. Ostrum noted: \u201cBeing involved with resident education, selection, and training was the highlight of my long career. I was fortunate to do some important research which I was able to continue at UNC and had many publications.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">My time as a service leader, although sometimes frustrating, was a great way for me to be involved in bettering the overall hospital system for our patients. Restarting and energizing the [SIM] lab to the juggernaut it is today for learning and simulation was a great thrill.\u201d<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Esteemed as an expert in orthopaedic trauma, Dr. Ostrum impacted this area of his field both in teaching and research. Prior to UNC, he served as Orthopaedic Trauma Fellowship Director at Cooper University Hospital in Camden, NJ (2007-2012). Over three decades, he taught Advanced Trauma Life Support (ATLS) as chair of national educational courses sponsored by musculoskeletal medicine professional societies ( eg, OTA, AONA, AAOS) that guided residents and faculty through fast-response assessment, stabilization and management of musculoskeletal and other injury types.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">A leading clinical researcher, Dr. Ostrum built a strong scholarly portfolio of textbooks (Editor\/Co-Editor), book chapters, journal articles, and scientific exhibits over his career. He presented worldwide on orthopaedic trauma-related topics ranging from procedural innovation to value-based practice to treating lower extremity complex cases. Funded by federal, industry, and orthopaedics-focused organizations, over his career, Dr. Ostrum led (PI\/Co-PI) a range of comparative, true experimentation\/cause-effect and cost-effectiveness studies on procedural approaches related to orthopaedic trauma.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Dr. Ostrum reflects: \u201cAfter 35 years of orthopaedic practice and 10 years at UNC, it&#8217;s strange to not have a schedule.
