The Osler Surgical Critical Care Virtual Review 2025

Include: 22 videos 2 pdfs, size: 2.03 GB

The Surgical Critical Care Review is a 2-day seminar consisting of didactic lectures, Question and Answer time at the end of each topic, and dedicated Question and Answer sessions.  This comprehensive review is designed to update your clinical knowledge base and help you pass your Critical Care Surgery exams (certifying and re-certifying).  Emphasis is on evidence-based medicine and board-relevant standards of care, incorporating current best practice concepts, surgical approaches, preoperative evaluation, and clinical follow-up strategies.  As a result, it provides a good review for your ABS sub-specialty exams and a thorough Surgical Critical Care review for physicians in practice.  Many of our previous participants found the course provided them with improved diagnostic and management strategies and a better understanding of the best surgical approach for the principal areas covered by Critical Care Surgeons.  In addition, they helped them recognize areas of weakness for self-study.

The webinar will be delivered using Zoom Cloud Meetings, allowing audio and visual interaction between you and the faculty.  You need a computer with a good internet connection to participate in the webinar.  You can watch and participate as much as you have time during the 2-day course and then use the recordings for further review and support practice improvement.  With this online webinar course, you get the best of both worlds – the comfort and safety of your home or office and the chance to learn from the Osler Faculty and your peers.  In addition, all participants receive complimentary streaming access to a course recording up through Sept. 17.
