SUMMARY:ENHANCE Open 2026
DESCRIPTION:ESVS and Copenhagen Certification Programme (ENHANCE) – Open Repair of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms\nA collaboration:  Esvs and copeNHAgeN CErtification programme (ENHANCE ) is arranged as a collaboration between the ESVS Academy\, the Department of Vascular Surgery at the University Hospital of Copenhagen (Rigshospitalet) and the Copenhagen Academy of Medical Education and Simulation (CAMES)\, Denmark. Today\, the ENHANCE programme consists of two courses that can be taken independently of each other. ENHANCE Open focuses on open repair of infrarenal aortic aneurysms\, and ENHANCE-EVAR focus on basic endovascular aortic repair (EVAR). Both courses are a part of the ESVS Aortic Fellowship Programme. \nJoin: Jonas Eiberg\, Professor of Vascular Surgery; Kim Kargaard Bredahl\, PhD\, ass. Prof\, Dept. Vasc. Surg and CAMES\, Rigshospitalet\, DK; Igor Koncar\, PhD\, ass. Prof\, University Hospital Belgrade\, Serbia; Carl Wahlgren\, MD\, ass. Prof\, Dept. Vasc. Surg\, Karolinska University Hospital\, Sweden; Cecilie Markvard Møller\, MD\, PhD\, Dept. Vasc. Surg\, Skejby University Hospital\, DK; Christian Lyng\, MD\, Dept. Vasc. Surg\, Sykehuset Innlandet\, Hamar\, Norway; Xavier Berard\, Prof\, Dept. Of vascular Surgery\, Bordeaux\, France. \nProgramme description: ENHANCE Open is an ambitious\, 3-day simulation-based educational programme aiming to prepare vascular surgical trainees to perform supervised elective open repair of infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysms. If you pass the programme\, you will master all the necessary steps of the procedure and be ready to continue training in the OR on patients under supervision. Each course participant will perform 6-8 cases as surgeon\, and 6-8 as assistant under the supervision of highly experienced open aortic surgeons. Course participants will receive supervision\, feedback and tips & tricks. Feedback will be summative in test-cases and formative in supervision-cases. The trainee-tutor rate will be 2:1. During the course\, participants will train on state-of-the-art and life-like\, pulsatile aortic simulation models and aortic inlays (Vascular International) and use original vascular instruments\, grafts and sutures in a simulated OR environment. Course design\, duration and assessment have been tested and validated. We aim to improve our course through ongoing research\, evaluation and feedback\, which is why monitoring with sports watches\, video recording and continuous data collection will be part of this course. Data collection will be strictly confidential and comply with current GDPR and Danish legislation.  In order to get full benefit from the course\, we recommend that the course participant is prioritised for supervising AAA operations afterwards. ENHANCE Open AAA Repair is a part of the ESVS Aortic pathway\, and the course can be used in preparation for the FEBVS exam. \nFull Progamme \nParticipant level: The target group is vascular surgical trainees with limited experience in open AAA repair. Experience with essential peripheral open surgical techniques (instruments\, anastomotic techniques etc.) is required\, as well as basic knowledge of abdominal aortic anatomy. Participants will be trained in teams of two\, based on prior experience (electronic survey)\, and performance throughout the course. \nCertification: Participants’ technical and non-technical skills are assessed continuously with summative and formative feedback to cater to multiple learning styles. Passing course participants will be certified according to Copenhagen standards\, and participants that did not achieve the required competence level will receive a proof of participation. Certification is based on a validated assessment and pass-fail limit using the OPERATE tool. \nRegistration: The course fee is €2300 for ESVS members and €2900  for non-members. The fee includes certification\, 1:2 supervision\, course material\, inlays\, sutures\, grafts\, gloves\, gowns\, lunch\, beverages\, snacks\, and networking dinner. Transport\, accommodation and additional meals are not included. The ENHANCE programme is non-sponsored and non-profit. For questions on course content\, qualifications and whether the course fits your level –  please contact course convenor kim.kargaard.bredahl@regionh.dk. In the first instance\, please complete this screening questionnaire for us to assess your level\, before purchasing a ticket above. We will get back to you asap.

By participating in the course and entering in the venue\, you consent to the publication\, release\, exhibition and reproduction of such materials to be used for the ESVS website\, ESVS communications and on ESVS social media. If you don’t want to appear in communications\, please make the organisers aware. \nCancellation policy: Please note that the course is dependent on final registration numbers. If the course is cancelled\, an announcement will be made on the website no later than one calendar month before the course starts and all registrants will be informed. Travel and accommodation must therefore not be booked until this date has passed – ESVS is not financially responsible if the event has to be cancelled due to low numbers\, in this timeframe. For cancellations received by participants more than 20 days before the event\, a refund will be given less an administration fee of 10 EUR. For cancellations received less than 10 days before the event\, no refund is possible. \nPlease note: \n\nUnfortunately\, offering participants who fail the course a free seat on the next course is not possible.\nWe aim to improve our training through research\, and data collection for such work may be part of ENHANCE. Data collection will be strictly confidential and comply with GDPR and Danish legislation.\n\nPre-learning: 2-3 weeks before the programme\, course participants will receive modular e-learning and tests that have to be passed before participation. \nVenue: Copenhagen Academy for Medical Education and Simulation\, Copenhagen\, Denmark. Ryesgade 53B\, 4. Sal\, 2100 København.
