ICPO 2027 Website Now Live: Pakistan’s First International Conference on Prosthetics and Orthotics

The official website for the International Conference on Prosthetics and Orthotics (ICPO) 2027 is now live at icpo.pk.

Organised by the OPPAK Academy of Orthotists and Prosthetists under the patronage of Orthotics Prosthetics Pakistan (OPPAK), this will be Pakistan’s first international conference dedicated to prosthetics and orthotics. The event is planned for November 2027 in Islamabad under the theme “Research · Innovation · Rehabilitation.” Exact dates and venue will be confirmed on the website soon.

What to Expect

ICPO 2027 is designed as a three-day gathering that brings together clinicians, researchers, educators, students, and industry partners from Pakistan and abroad. The programme will combine scientific sessions with practical learning through:

• Lectures and panel discussions
• Case-based learning
• Live fitting and casting demonstrations
• Hands-on workshops

Key focus areas include lower-limb and upper-limb prosthetics, orthotics and spinal bracing, rehabilitation outcomes, education, and improving access to services.

Hands-on workshop topics currently listed on the site cover:

• Transtibial socket casting and fitting
• Transfemoral alignment
• AFO and KAFO fabrication
• Scoliosis bracing
• Diabetic foot assessment
• Gait analysis
• Paediatric care
• 3D scanning, CAD/CAM, and 3D printing workflows

The emphasis on affordable and sustainable services makes the conference especially relevant for practitioners working in Pakistan and neighbouring countries. Digital fabrication sessions will allow teams to explore how scanning, design, and manufacturing decisions translate into better patient outcomes in real clinical settings.
