Détails de la formation
The Robot-Assisted MIDCAB Team Training Course is a 1-day advanced course by Aalst Cardiac Academy.
Supported by Orsi Academy.
The aim is to offer a complete hands-on one-to-one training in robotically assisted MIDCAB using the da Vinci Surgical System allowing the cardiac surgeon and his team to start or improve this procedure back in their own hospitals. The course encompasses introductory theory, a live–in-a-box video, but is especially focusing on practice. It is provided by the pioneering expert Dr. Frank Van Praet from the Aalst Cardiac Academy with more than 20 years of experience with the daVinci technology.
The course is designed for one full cardiac team to participate and covers all costs of max. 5 team members.
The course covers all important surgical and clinical aspects related to the safe and successful application of the da Vinci robotic system in the field of robotically assisted MIDCAB. The course will be held during one intensive day of hands-on experience at Orsi Academy. The course can be tailored to meet individual needs.
