THIS IS NOT A CME ACTIVITY
Top Gun gives you those skills that you need to operate in the advanced laparoscopic environment such as superior targeting skills, two-hand choreography, and 3D depth perception compensation. All of these are needed attributes of a front line 21st Century Surgeon.
Become a top gun surgeon by participating in the Top Gun Laparoscopic Skills & Suturing Program. Top Gun is an unbelievable program that decreases the time that it takes to learn how to intracorporeally suture from 350 hours to 12 hours and is now available in an interactive, exciting, iBooks format.
TARGET AUDIENCE
Target Audience: surgeons and other health professionals interested in minimally invasive surgery techniques, technologies, and therapy.
OVERVIEW
Top Gun is more than a program, it is a way of doing things that has not been done before and it truly is an experience that we hope you can partake in.
Volume I is a core curriculum package that sets you on a pathway to become a leader in minimally invasive surgery.
Volume II offers the participant the opportunity to rapidly become immersed in the Top Gun culture. This quick start version has been validated to allow the participant to sample the program and achieve success in performing intracorporeal suturing. This, coupled with the extensive troubleshooting video vignette montage allows the student to embrace the basics and overcome obstacles to entry-level competency. It is best used in concert with Volume I for maximum success.
Volume III offers the participant the unique perspective of a glossary that has come to life. The Top Gun Experience is effective because of its rich descriptive terms that effectively allow the participant to grasp and execute the process concepts. Also, it is the language that allows efficient instruction. Even though there is a standard glossary in Volume I, the value of this enhancement is off the charts. It is a must have if you are to complete your journey and become a Top Gun Surgeon.
