Obstetrics + Gynaecology surgery educationThe Obstetrics + Gynaecology Dept of the Virtual Centre of Excellence
Protecting time to bond
To support the successful implementation of incisional NPWT into your surgical care pathway we have developed an online preceptorship – the Virtual Centre of Excellence.
The Virtual Centre of Excellence comprises five surgical departments, each providing dedicated insight and information intended to help support you in surgical site complication (SSC) prevention with PICO◊ sNPWT.
To better understand how to effectively implement PICO sNPWT as part of SSC prevention a consensus publication was developed by an internationally recognised expert panel experienced in establishing and embedding the prophylactic use of PICO sNPWT as the standard post-operative management for the prevention of SSCs.
This is the obstetrics + gynaecology surgery programme
Specifically - Caesarean section
Learning Objectives
- How to establish a case for changing to incisional NPWT prophylaxis using PICO sNPWT with benchmark auditing of SSC outcomes and business case development.
- Help to optimise outcomes by accurate identification of the most appropriate patient group at risk of developing SSCs based upon pre-operative risk assessment.
- Best practice sharing to enable successful implementation of bespoke closed surgical incision management pathways and protocols using PICO sNPWT within the surgical care pathway including practical tools, pragmatic tactics and compliance support.
- How to help drive consistency and reduce variation in the delivery of closed surgical incision management pathways using PICO sNPWT through protocol expansion into multiple surgical specialities and care settings.
