Conferences and Didactics  Thursday is the academic day for the entire Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology. The day begins with a Morbidity and Mortality Conference, in which interesting cases from each service are presented by members of the housestaff and are followed by lively and thoughtful discussion from the faculty and other members of the department. Weekly Grand Rounds follow the M&M conference and feature presentations from within our faculty as well as many distinguished visiting guest speakers. Each second, third and fourth year resident is also required to give one Grand Rounds presentation each year, and these talks are often the highlight of the morning session. A core Resident Didactic Lecture Series supplements the experience gained on clinical rotations to round out the comprehensive post-graduate curriculum. Residents have protected time away from their clinical duties to attend this weekly lecture series every Thursday morning following Grand Rounds. Fetal Heart Rate Tracing Rounds are conducted three mornings a week at Board Turnover on Labor & Delivery. A Prenatal Pediatrics Conference is held on alternate Wednesday mornings. Complex high-risk pregnancies involving issues such as fetal anomalies, congenital heart defects and genetic syndromes are discussed in a multidisciplinary setting with colleagues from Neonatology, Pediatric Surgery, Anesthesia and other relevant specialties. A Gynecology (TGIF) Conference is held every Friday morning. Often an ACOG practice bulletin or a review of the recent literature on a particular gynecologic topic will be presented by a resident with discussion facilitated by a rotating faculty preceptor. An OB Journal Club is held every month with the presentation of an interesting paper by a member of the housestaff and a critical discussion and review of the topic led by an MFM fellow or faculty member. |
