Paradigm shift in the medical profession
Dear partners, clients, friends and innovation enthusiasts,
Medicine has always aimed at providing the best possible care for the least amount of patient discomfort. This guideline drives training away from patient care towards simulation, and it pushes treatments from the operating room into the office.
Dr. Robert A. Pedowitz has written a paper on the various simulation training opportunities already available to arthroscopic surgeons, stating that medical training is on the brink of a paradigm shift; in a video interview he discusses the return on investment of simulation training. Meanwhile, the first ever Global Congress on Hysteroscopy campaigned for less invasive treatments and training to make sure all gynecologists gain the needed skills.
