@SalemSamer @RASACS @pferrada1 @docmartin22 @elliotthaut @DrHasanAlam @bryanacotton1 @topknife @rwinfield11 @brakenridge_md @JAmCollSurg Agree!

[Steve Smith @flysurg_smith]

@RASACS @pferrada1 @docmartin22 @elliotthaut @DrHasanAlam @bryanacotton1 @topknife @rwinfield11 @brakenridge_md @JAmCollSurg No significant differences in complications. We started in the OR to make sure the institution’s initial experience was favorable.

@brakenridge_md @RASACS @pferrada1 @docmartin22 @jpmeizoso @LillianKao1 @asha_zimmerman @VNikolian @JAmCollSurg @PMHTrauma_ALE I agree. This will propagate through use and necessity. There wil not be enough training courses available.

@JuliaColemanMD @pferrada1 @RASACS @docmartin22 @jpmeizoso @LillianKao1 @asha_zimmerman @VNikolian @brakenridge_md @JAmCollSurg @PMHTrauma_ALE Agree. It should certainly be in the skill set of a surgeon that takes Trauma call.

@RASACS @pferrada1 @docmartin22 @jpmeizoso @LillianKao1 @asha_zimmerman @VNikolian @brakenridge_md @JAmCollSurg @PMHTrauma_ALE It depends on your wire and catheter based skills. If you have those skills, we feel that a specific course is not mandatory. If you are starting from scratch, a course such as BEST will be very helpful.

@elliotthaut @docmartin22 @brakenridge_md @md_mohr @UFSurgery @RASACS Credentialing has not been an issue.

[Steve Smith @flysurg_smith]

@docmartin22 @RASACS Periodic simulation sessions for new groups of residents is our plan

[Steve Smith @flysurg_smith]

Credentialing has not been an issue.

@docmartin22 @brakenridge_md @md_mohr @flysurg_smith @UFSurgery How are you dealing with hosptial credentialing for #REBOA? #RASJACS @RASACS

[Steve Smith @flysurg_smith]

@docmartin22 @brakenridge_md @md_mohr @UFSurgery Our plan is to have periodic simulation sessions and didactic session for new groups of residents that rotate on the Trauma Service. Also considering adding to ASSET experience
