This in-person event is a critical one-day course offering a deep dive into the management of fourth-degree obstetric anal sphincter injury and rectal buttonhole tears.
Designed in response to the significant impact these injuries have on women's quality of life and the subsequent legal implications, this course equips clinicians with the skills, latest techniques and insights for confident management of these conditions.
Led by experienced clinicians, including Professor Abdul Sultan and Professor Ranee Thakar, the event features a comprehensive programme including lectures, workshops, panel discussions and practical teaching sessions.
This course is particularly relevant for its focus on improving clinical outcomes in the treatment of childbirth-related trauma, including how to manage perineal and OASI wound breakdown and subsequent pregnancy after OASIs.
This course is suitable for those who have already completed a recognised perineal trauma third/fourth degree hands-on repair course, in particular ST5 to ST7 trainees, SAS doctors and consultants in O&G.
