Key Performance Indexes (KPI’s) in infertility’s diagnosis and treatment.
The Humanitas Fertility Center, continuing a historical scienti c and educational tradition, is o ffering a two-day gathering – October 1-2, 2021, to provide clinical and research updates in reproduction as well as the opportunity to access the Fertility Center facilities for a training course.
Venue
Humanitas University, Via Rita Levi Montalcini 4, Pieve Emanuele – Building B or Online at: https://my.humanitasedu.it
Objective
The subspecialty of Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility (REI) – Reproductive Medicine (RM) was formed within obstetrics and gynecology to address the breadth and depth of gynecologic and reproductive issues ranging from puberty through menopause, keeping in mind however safety and e cacy as they are critically important for successful clinical care. To this end, professional (clinical) training and academic education, gained through medical specialty and subspecialty training, must be constantly updated to optimize patient outcomes. REI specialists are consultants for complex gynecologic conditions such as the management of hormonal dysfunction e.g. hypo/hyperthyroidism, hyperprolactinemia; chronic anovulation and metabolic syndromes such as polycystic ovarian disease, menopausal hormonal replacement therapy, as well as broids, endometriosis, and abnormal bleeding. In addition to endocrinology and organic disease, REI training covers the complexity of human reproduction, including the various forms of assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs), fertility preservation, embryology, genetics, andrology, gamete micromanipulation and microsurgical techniques as well as noninvasive, minimal surgeries. The present course is an essential continuum of our educational mission aiming to further knowledge through lectures and debates by and among board-certi ed specialists in Obstetrics and Gynecology devoted to Reproductive Medicine. ART specialists (embryologists, technicians, and nurses) and experts at large tertiary-care centers supported by several European and American colleagues.
Background Information
The process of international standardization of training requirements needs to be ful lled to set minimal universal criteria to satisfy the breadth of knowledge, clinical training and certi cation processes required to e ectively practice within the discipline. Improvement in the learning process through simulation in all the diverse clinical and biologic aspects of RM is one of our future goals along with furthering novel scienti c innovations and new technologies that advance global reproductive health for all women. With these objectives in mind, we developed an annual two-day course structured with lectures and debates on a variety of topics along with seven days of practical and simulation training. These educational e orts are supported by the Humanitas Fertility Center facilities. This year’s conference will include 6 sessions with 18 presentations (15 minutes each) and, as in the previous years, session chairs and discussants will support interactive debates. 4 Invited lectures by national and international experts will be also presented. Due to the possible limitations due to the Covid 19 pandemic, only a limited number of participants will be allowed to be physically present. All the other both speakers and participants will be connected by a special interactive platform, implemented by our Institute, and successfully tested in the 2020 conference edition.
