Very little time is allocated within the undergraduate medical curriculum for the formal teaching of basic surgical techniques such as instrument handling, suturing techniques and knot tying. Basic Surgical Skills for Students is a one-day program where students will gain the hands on opportunity to learn these techniques under proper supervision.

Areas covered will include gowning and gloving, instrument handling, suturing techniques, knot tying techniques, minor lesion excision and wound management. The full timetable can be seen below. This course has been based on the Royal College of Surgeons' Basic Surgical Skills Course. It will be instructed by Mr Sanjay Purkayastha, SpR at St. Mary's Hospital, Imperial College London.

Members are eligible to receive a discounted price. Click here to purchase your membership for £3 at the IC Union Shop.
