"Hands On" Gynaecological Endoscopy Skills Workshop
The first "HANDS ON" GYNAECOLOGICAL
ENDOSCOPY SKILLS WORKSHOP was held in June 1989, and
have continued regularly ever since. Our format has
changed little through the years and we offer personal,
small-group teaching with emphasis on the practical
aspects of the subject with as much model and clinical
hands-on practice as possible.
The
rapid developments in this area has meant that
our curriculum is forever increasing. Accordingly,
the Workshop has been extended from two to three
days to allow us to cover more topics in depth
and to give more time for practical training. There
is however a strong bias towards electro-surgery
and minimal emphasis will be placed on the use
of lasers.
Our
principle aim is to establish a firm practical
basis for many of the endoscopic procedures relevant
to gynaecology. It is hoped that by the end of
the three days our students will have gained sufficient
knowledge, skill and confidence to be, above all,
safe surgeons who understand not only the indications
for the various procedures but also their own technical
limitations. Then, with growing experience they
will be able to build on this foundation, perform
more complex procedures and become safe and effective
endoscopic surgeons. A copy of the CD "Gynaecological
Endoscopic Surgery: Movies" will be given
to all attendants, together with a DVD of the
surgery carried out during the course, as well
as a surprise gift!
