Online module provides an in-depth exploration of key topics in minimal access surgery through live and recorded sessions. Participants will cover:
- Introduction to Minimal Access Surgery: Principles, history, and evolution of the field.
- Technological Advances: Focus on optical devices, light sources, cameras, insufflators, and surgical tools like trocars, graspers, and energy devices (e.g., electrocautery, harmonic scalpel).
- Sterilization and Safety Protocols: Techniques to maintain the longevity and safety of equipment.
- Insufflation and Pneumoperitoneum: Gases, pressures, complications, and management strategies.
- Operating Room Setup: Optimizing equipment placement, patient positioning, and ergonomic techniques for surgical precision.
- Understanding Pelvic Anatomy: Detailed study of the anterior abdominal wall, sacral promontory, and common injury sites.
- Laparoscopic Techniques: Including suturing, knot-tying, port entry methods, and troubleshooting complications.
- Core Laparoscopic Procedures: Training in tubal reanastomosis, ovarian cystectomy, total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH), laparoscopic myomectomy, and management of ectopic pregnancies.
Participants will also gain insights into the advantages and disadvantages of laparoscopic surgery, tips and tricks for precision, and the management of surgical challenges.
Offline Hands-on Training emphasizes practical skills through drills, simulations, and live surgeries. The curriculum includes:
Simulation Drills
- Paper cutting exercises.
- Cobra rope drills.
- Packing the poll technique.
- Various laparoscopic suturing techniques (extracorporeal and intracorporeal).
- Tissue retrieval and port closure techniques.
