00:00Professor Rodia, the All About Foot and Ankle conference ended here at the Olympic Stadium. What emerged from
00:06this important initiative that put doctors and physiotherapists at the center?
00:11Yes, I must say that this is certainly an initiative that is now consolidated because we have reached the fifth edition.
00:19I must say that I am very satisfied to see that I have a very high number of members and participants,
00:26They have communicated about 600 members, but I must say that the thing that I appreciate even more is the presence
00:32of many speakers and many moderators who are certainly qualified both in the orthopedic world, in the physiatric world, and in the world
00:41rehabilitation.
00:43This is very important because the aim of these conferences is to create an exchange of opinions, a synergy because also
00:50the work we do from a diagnostic, surgical and therapeutic point of view is a team effort, therefore
00:57It cannot ignore the need for integration between all specialists, from the physiatrist to the sports doctor to the orthopedist
01:05to the physiotherapist to achieve our goal, our result.
01:10That is, the full recovery of the athlete, but not only of the athlete because then these techniques, these principles must also be refined
01:18to the people we deal with every day and who have needs that are clearly not the same as high-performance athletes
01:27intensity but they still have very important needs for their activity and their social life.
01:33Here, Professor Rodi, there are many reports that enriched the conference, is there one or more in particular?
01:41who hit her?
01:42But I must say that I was especially struck by those given by foreign speakers because they were certainly very rich.
01:50both from a case history point of view and from a bibliographical point of view and then I repeat they are
01:55very important because they make us understand how our language must be a unique language that goes beyond
02:02of those that are the borders.
02:04Thank you
