We produce good practice guides for T&O surgeons, which we call Blue Books due to their easily recognisable and well known blue covers. The full list is overseen, reviewed and updated by our Professional Practice Committee.
Please note: The BOA is currently in the process of seeking NHS Evidence accreditation for our guidance development process, as a consequence of which this list of Blue Books will be subject to extensive updating and revision - it should therefore be viewed as provisional for the time being.
All BOA Blue Books are available free to members. Once you have logged in and activated your online membership a link to the members page for the Blue Books will be available on this page.
