This annual update in OBGYN is intended to review topics that are timely and relevant to general and subspecialty OB GYN providers. Each presentation will address its topic with a focus on the pertinent evidence in the literature that guides clinical care. A multidisciplinary and inclusive approach will be used to address latest controversies in the specialty relevant to each topic. One half day is obstetric and gynecologic topics and the other half to laparoscopic training. The obstetrics topics to be explored include neurological pregnancy emergencies and ultrasound. Gynecologic topics will cover pelvic pain and pre-op testing. A hot topic lecture on radical hysterectomy will take place at lunchtime.

1. Develop a team approach with close communication between emergency physicians, neurologists, maternal-fetal medicine specialists, and radiologists to obtain the best outcomes
2. Use a protocol to guide preoperative testing care by eliminating unnecessary tests without compromising the efficacy of predicting adverse perioperative events or case cancellation and modifications

Registration will begin at 7:00 AM in Harvey Morse Conference Center (South Tower, Plaza Level).
