Re: CredentialingFrom: ENDODOK@aol.comThu Feb 3 12:56:33 2005
As an LSH and TVT preceptor for Gynecare and Gyrus, our training is as follows: 1) The reps are aware of the laparoscopic skills of the gyns in their territory. It is not reasonable for a gyn whose endoscopic experience is confined to tubals and simple adhesiolysis to attend our program. At a minimum, we support gyns who perform and feel comfortable with LAVH. 2) Interested gyns can then visit my hospital and observe at least 2 cases. The live surgery is preceded by a 1-2 hour lecture ( PowerPoint, CD videos, of the techniques utilized with pearls and pitfalls) 3) If gyn attendees then wish to proceed with LSH cases, they schedule 2-3 cases in their own hospital, with specific direction on patient selection ( ie thin virgin abdomen, small uterus) as the successful timely accomplishment of the operations instills confidence and familiarity with the procedure. 4) I attend the surgery, standing at the head of the table with a laser pointer, guiding and offering advice. At the end of the day, well chosen participants are very gratified as they have risen to a new level of confidence and ability in MIS. J. Glenn Bradley MD

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
