Program Description

ISPD European PD (Peritoneal Dialysis) University for Surgeons is a two-fold approach to training general surgeons to place catheters for peritoneal dialysis using laparoscopic techniques. The course consists of didactic lectures followed by comprehensive hands-on workshops. The hands on workshop sessions are designed to take the general surgeon through the entire process of catheter placement; including pre-operative catheter exit site selection, catheter implantation, and exteriorization and dressing. The course is limited in size to maximize the learning experience and time for collaboration with the faculty.

Target Audience

This course is designed for surgeons with basic surgical experience, including sterile techniques (glove/gowning) and administering topical anesthetic, dissection and suturing.

Prerequisites

Although there are no prerequisites for this course, it is designed for general surgeons with basic laparoscopic surgery experience.
