The Obesity Epidemic and the Role of the Ob/GYN
Presented by Linda D. Bradley, MD, FACOG
- According to The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 66% of Americans are overweight or obese.
- As their physician, your patients depend on you to help them lose weight.
- How can you help combat the obesity epidemic?
- "Approximately one-third of all women in the United States are obese. Obstetrician-gynecologists should evaluate all women for obesity by calculating body mass index (BMI) measurement and should offer appropriate interventions or referrals to promote a healthy weight and lifestyle." -ACOG Committee Opinion Number 319. (October 2005). "The Role of Ob/Gyns in the Assessment and Management of Obesity"

Women's Secrets, Men's Muscles,
Unveiled: A Gynecologist's Exploration of Body, Mind, and Spirit
Introduction: The Inside Story
Women’s secrets are delicious, mysterious, and intriguing and most arise
from the biological imperative to attract a mate to and make a baby. Nature
has created a powerful seductress, and men have contributed to the allure of
women’s secrets by their bemoaning that women are a mystery and impossible
to understand.

In this presentation, Dr James McGregor, Professor of Clinical Ob/Gyn at the University of Southern California's Keck School of Medicine, will address the importance of taking a proactive approach to bacterial vaginosis (also known as “BV”) and trichomoniasis.
Too many women and their health care providers fail to appreciate the significance of these two conditions. The obvious signs and symptoms of BV and trichomoniasis are often played down as “nuisance” complaints. However, the evidence shows that BV and trichomoniasis must be taken seriously as a health risk. Recent advances in diagnostic technology allow clinicians to quickly and conveniently screen patients for bacterial vaginosis and trichomoniasis, make a prompt and accurate diagnosis, and initiate appropriate treatment without delay.
Throughout this presentation, and again at the conclusion, you will have the opportunity to request product samples (available in US only), additional information and follow-up from your local Genzyme Diagnostics representative about the OSOM® Trichomonas Rapid Test and OSOM® BVBLUE® Test, by conveniently clicking on the button at the bottom of the slide screens.
Introduction
to Office and Operative Hysteroscopy,
Resad
Paya Pasic, MD, with co-authors Royshanda C. Smith, MD and Patrick Yeung Jr,
MD
Part 2 - Operative Hysteroscopy
This video
tutorial will demonstrate the fundamentals including setup and equipment needed
to perform office hysteroscopy, the technique of diagnostic hysteroscopy
including fluid delivery options and camera orientation inside the uterine
cavity and setup, equipment, and technique required to perform operative
hysteroscopies, such as polyp or IUD removal.
Part 1 - Office Hysteroscopy - In this video tutorial we instruct on the setup, equipment and management of office hysteroscopy. The minimal use of anesthesia and the improvements in therapeutic and diagnostic qualities of office hysteroscopy makes it use an attractive alternative to the operating room for both the gynecologic practice and their patients in terms of reduced time and cost efficiencies.
We are seeking interesting papers pertaining to urology, gynecology or colorectal surgery. We are keen to print articles of interest to practitioners who are active in Pelvic medicine. We are a new journal and are keen to make contact with authors who seek a multidisciplinary audience. Submit a paper.
We
invite you to participate in a free WebCast focused on Speculum
Examination Training for pregnant women. This skill can be used when
gathering information to help make a clinical diagnosis. Leslie Ludka, CNM,
MSN, will share important information on assessment of the patient and guide
the viewer step by step through the examination while giving helpful insights
to the procedure. 1 CEU is available to nurses who successfully complete
the presentation. This program is supported by an educational grant from
Hologic.
