Avoiding complications in Ocular surgery - 6 Dec 2021

Avoiding complications in Ocular surgery - 6 Dec 2021
In this 1-day seminar, we will hear from experts regarding the issues behind providing a safe approach to address complexity and avoid complications in ocular surgery. This will include an exploration of human factors, non-technical and technical skills, and discussion regarding the role of rehearsal and simulation, and evidence of effective strategies which you can integrate into your own department. Such topics will be further developed through insights from guest speakers from the world of aviation and sports. Please join us in person if you can. The event will be live-streamed for further delegates when the maximum in-person capacity for the College has been reached, so book your place early!
