School of Respirology 2012 - Modules in bronchoscopy

This course has been developed together with our colleagues from the Royal Brompton Hospital in London UK (dr. P Shah). This three day course consists of three modules with a stepwise increase in level: 1. Basic Bronchoscopy 2. Advanced Diagnostic Bronchoscopy 3. Advanced Therapeutic Bronchoscopy. Apart from technical skills the modules will have a strong focus on the clinical context and team performance. Throughout the course considerable exercise time is provided at multiple hands-on stations in order to practice your skills.

You have the freedom to register for one, two or all three modules. We strongly advise to start with the basic module unless you consider yourself an experienced bronchoscopist. 

Prices:

• one day € 300
• two days € 600
• three days € 800 (€ 100 discount)

Participants:

• pulmonologists, pulmonologists in training
• open to international participants

DAY ONE - Basic bronchoscopy - 26 Sept 2012  - FULL

Aim: this module is intended for pulmonologists in training and pulmonologists with limited experience in bronchoscopy. During the course of the day participants are made aware of important background issues such as the technical aspects of the equipment, hygiene/disinfection and team performance. In addition the attendants will learn to master the skills necessary for performing diagnostic bronchoscopy to its full extent in the daily patient care.
