The Academy proudly presents: How to Make a Meta-analysis You will be in the capable hands of: David Lewis; Phil Stather and Graeme Ambler Objective: Attendees will be walked through the steps necessary to perform and publish a systematic review. Systematic reviews of the published literature are a well recognised and respected way of contributing to our understanding of vascular disease. The course is designed to give the participants wider and clearer knowledge of how to plan, conduct, write up and publish a systematic review. As well as advancing knowledge, performing and publishing a systematic review is an excellent way to enhance your curriculum vitae and career opportunities. The course is run by vascular surgeons who have enormous experience in conducting and supervising systematic reviews. By attending this course, participants will know how to plan, perform, write up and publish a systematic review. Full Programme Target audience: Vascular surgeons, vascular trainees and vascular nurses who want to advance their careers and curriculum vitae, as well as contributing to the scientific literature, by performing and publishing one or more high quality systematic reviews. Registration and Cancellation policy: € 25 for ESVS members and € 30 for non-members. The number of attendees is limited in […]

We are pleased to announce a new course in the Vascular Access Pathway, in collaboration with the Vascular Access Society (VAS)!  Complex vascular access scenarios  Join: Flavia Gentile, Anton Razuaev, Matteo Tozzi, David Shemesh, Roberta Brambilla  Objective The increased survival of patients in dialysis and the gradual increase in the age of uremic patients commencing chronic dialysis raises serious problems for the creation and maintenance of efficient vascular access. In cases in where it is extremely difficult to create arteriovenous fistulas (AVF) using existing upper limb veins, it is possible to resort to vascular grafts, lower limb AVF. Experts in the field will share their experience in particularly challenging situations necessitating complex procedures. The course is designed to give the participants wider knowledge useful in their daily practice. By attending this course, participants will learn treatment strategies in difficult access scenarios. A thought that there is no unique and perfect treatment modality for each patient will be presented and highlighted. Target audience: The course is designed for vascular surgeons who are performing vascular access surgery. An intermediate level of knowledge of vascular access is expected. Registration and Cancellation policy: € 25 for ESVS members and € 30 for non-members. Please note that […]
