Operative Hysteroscopy for Nurse Practitioners
Step into the world of operative hysteroscopy with this 1-day intensive course designed specifically for nurse practitioners looking to enhance their skills in diagnostic and operative procedures.
Who is this course for?
This 1 day intensive course is for nurse practitioners that currently or plan to undertake operative hysteroscopy, to rapidly gain competency and improve your skills. This course will lay the foundations and rapidly progress your skills, for the benefit of patients.
What will I learn?
This course will take you through the basic principles of operative hysteroscopy followed by high-volume procedural practice on life-like models. Delegates will progress through the EMIGS curriculum, with the aim of sign off.
Why should I do this course?
Take advantage of the latest technology-enhanced training methodology to progress your skills faster than ever before. We will work towards EMIGS accreditation sign off and all videos, assessments and metrics will be stored on your Totum profile where you will be able to access this for a full year’s complimentary subscription.
On the day:
Module 1:
Build foundational skills with EMIGS H1 and H2 hysteroscopy simulators, mastering navigation, identification, and basic removal techniques.
Module 2:
Develop precision with adhesiolysis, removing intra-uterine adhesions using the advanced HystAR simulator while tracking performance metrics.
Module 3:
Tackle polypectomy techniques using sharp and blunt dissection to remove intra-uterine polyps with reflective video analysis for improvement.
Module 4:
Advance to real-world procedural simulations in a wet lab environment:
- Fundal block
- Dilation and curettage
- Myomectomy
- Throughout the course, benefit from video-recorded performance reviews, expert facilitation, and intensive hands-on practice, ensuring confidence in operative techniques and readiness for clinical application. Learn, practice, and refine your hysteroscopic skills to excel in operative gynaecology.
