SUMMARY:Statistics 4 Vascular Surgeons Part 1 & Part 2 - 2025
DESCRIPTION:Don’t miss your chance this time! You will be in the capable hands of Sergi Bellmunt Montoya\, Francisco Álvarez Marcos & Graeme Ambler \nPart 1: 3rd June\nPart 2: 5th June \nObjective: These two-part online workshops cover what a Vascular Surgeon or Vascular Surgical Trainee needs to know about statistics in the context of understanding published literature or performing original research. The workshop consists of interactive discussion\, working through defined areas of statistical analysis\, led by well-respected vascular surgical colleagues who will allow plenty of time for questions and answers. On completion of these workshops attendees will have a clear understanding of statistics and statistical analysis as commonly appears in scientific publications. Attendees will enhance their ability to critically appraise published literature and understand when published evidence should influence their practice (and when it shouldn’t). Attendees will increase their knowledge of how and when to perform statistical analyses and where to go for help with this. They will certainly understand the general principles of the standard and level of knowledge needed to pass the FEBVS exam. \nTarget audience: The workshop is aimed at any clinician who sees vascular patients but is a must for trainees sitting professional exams (e.g. FEBVS). \nRegistration and Cancellation policy: € 25 for ESVS members and € 30 for non-members. Please note that the course is dependent on final registration numbers. Where registration numbers are too low to run the course\, this will be announced on the website no later than 48 hours before the course starts. For cancellations received more than 10 days before the event\, a refund will be given less an administration fee of EUR10. For cancellations received less than 5 days before the event\, no refund is possible. Please be aware that the online session will be recorded and following the session we may share snippets of the recording across social Media and communication platforms and in our ESVS Library.  If you don’t wish to appear on these recordings\, please ensure your camera is switched off prior to the start of the session. \nCME: An application has been made to the UEMS EACCME® for CME/CPD accreditation of this event. \nBECOME A MEMBER TODAY\nFind relevant guidelines.

DESCRIPTION:In collaboration with: Department of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery\, USL TOSCANA CENTRO\, Florence\, Italy\nCourse confirmed! Please go ahead and book your travel and accommodation!\nThis session provides a comprehensive overview of endoleak management\, focusing on the entire process from diagnosis to treatment optimisation. The discussion begins with the identification and classification of endoleaks\, emphasising the use of advanced imaging techniques such as contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS)\, computed tomography angiography (CTA)\, and CO2 angiography to accurately diagnose and characterise the issue. Participants will learn how to evaluate the clinical relevance of an endoleak\, considering factors such as aneurysm sac growth\, patient health\, and the nature of the leak to decide between intervention and observation. The session will then delve into the development of a tailored treatment strategy\, providing a step-by-step guide to selecting the optimal approach based on the type and location of the endoleak. Access routes such as transarterial\, transealing\, translumbar\, and transcaval will be reviewed\, with guidance on how to determine the most appropriate option for each case. Techniques for embolisation will be explored in depth\, including the selection and application of coils\, liquid embolic agents\, and plug devices\, along with strategies for addressing challenging anatomy or persistent leaks. Participants will gain insights into optimising procedural outcomes\, including tips for precision during interventions\, the importance of imaging for real-time guidance\, and protocols for post-treatment monitoring. Real-world case studies will be presented to illustrate decision-making and treatment execution\, offering attendees a practical understanding of endoleak management and enhancing their ability to achieve successful patient outcomes. \nObjectives:\nEquip participants with advanced knowledge and practical skills for managing endoleaks.\nDeepen understanding of coils\, liquid agents\, and their clinical applications.\nFoster a collaborative and interactive learning environment through case discussions and hands-on experiences. \nJoin the faculty team:\nEmiliano Chisci – Vascular and Endovascular Surgery Unit  “San Giovanni di Dio” Hospital\, Florence\, Italy\nMichele Piazza – Azienda Ospedaliera Universitaria Padova; Italy\nFrancesca Calcagni – Radiology Unit  “San Giovanni di Dio” Hospital\, Florence\, Unit\nEnrico Gallitto – UO di Chirurgia Vascolare Interaziendale di Bologna\, IRCCS Policlinico S.Orsola\, Università di Bologna – DIMEC\, Bologna\, Italia\nGianbattista Parlani – Azienda Ospedaliera Perugia\, Santa Maria della Misericordia\, Perugia\, Italia\nLorenzo Patrone – Vascular and Endovascular Surgery Unit  “San Giovanni di Dio” Hospital\, Florence\, Italy\nKak Khee Yeung – Full Professor\, Vascular Surgery.

The level of the engagement of the participants (to perform some parts of the procedure by themselves) will depend on their skills. \nThe course will open the gate for your own procedural improvements. If you have started already and have some experience in the field\, it will be a great opportunity to compare with the experts and improve your skills. There will be no unanswered questions. Do not hesitate to treat the patient as the tutors know how to guide you. \nFull programme  \nPre-Learning: Knowledge of ESVS 2022 Practical Guidelines on the Management of Chronic Venous Disease (Eur J Vasc Endovasc Surg (2022) 63\, 184-267) will be  beneficial. \nTarget audience: The course is designed for physicians (vascular surgical/angiological trainees or specialists) who are planning to start endovenous treatment for chronic venous disease or for those who have some experience\, but want to develop their skills.
