Join national experts for a half day course to evaluate the learners' technical ability in a unique "into the fire" approach to demonstrate endoscopic stent placement, stricture dilation, clip placement for hemostasis, and endoscopic suturing for dilated gastrojejunal stomas. Learners will then be able to practice in simulated real tissue models with expert mentoring.
