LEADING TRAINING CENTRE IN THE UK

AT UNIVERSITY HOSPITALS COVENTRY AND WARWICKSHIRE NHS TRUST

 

 

The West Midlands Surgical Training Centre is located within the main University Hospital building to provide comprehensive simulation of a real operating environment and deliver medical, educational and instructional teaching.

 

It is one of only a handful of UK medical training facilities to have been granted a Human Tissue Authority licence that allows trainee surgeons to practise on cadaveric material, providing them with what lecturers say is a far more realistic operating experience than they would get via more conventional practice on models.

     

The Centre has a state-of-the-art surgical suite and an adjoining 30 seat seminar room. In the training suite, each of the 8 clinical training tables is equipped with operating threatre lights, a ‘Stack’ with arthroscopic camera and light source together with multiple power sockets, data ports, an adjustable pressure water supply, suction and free drainage. The monitors give access to e-learning material which can be called up to enhance the teaching session in real time.

 

A control system links the tables to a 46” screen in the suite, allowing a wide range of sources to be displayed. This includes live surgery, room cameras and recorded media. Connectivity to the adjacent lecture room, operating theatres and the internet allows fully flexible integrated programmes and virtual presence for remote trainees.
