OBGYN Rotation
GOALS and OBJECTIVES
What follows are the goals and objectives for the OBGYN rotation, that will range from a 2 week to 1 month rotation, as assigned by the Program Director. The rotation will take place at University Hospital. The year of training is assigned in the PGY1 year but may include PGY 1-5.
OBJECTIVES:

Gain expertise in the management of obstetrical and gynecological emergencies. Learn the priorities and procedures of labor and delivery. Become an integral part of the OBGYN team and respond to deliveries along with junior, senior and staff OBGYN’s. Gain exposure to OR sterile techniques and surgical techniques.


GOALS:

  • The educational goals include gaining knowledge about the progression of normal labor, delivery and immediate post-partum care. The resident will also gain expertise in the initial management of gynecological emergencies.

  • Participate in daily teaching rounds

  • Evaluate OBGYN patients in the Emergency Department

  • Participate in OBGYN Procedures, both in the OR and in Labor and Delivery: the ACGME recommends that you document participation in 10 vaginal deliveries.

  • Participate in the routine care of OBGYN patients

  • Participate in consults to the OBGYN Service

  • Follow inpatient OBGYN patients through discharge, including discharge planning

The clinical and didactic experiences used to meet those objectives included daily patient care of OBGYN patients, along with bedside teaching. The rotating resident is encouraged to attend lectures pertaining to the care of the OBGYN patient. This rotation experience is part of the greater emergency medicine curriculum, also including weekly didactics (part of the overall didactic curriculum).


The feedback mechanisms and methods used to evaluate the performance of the resident include an end of rotation global evaluation. Immediate feedback may also be given to the resident, and any significant problems will be discussed during the rotation with the LSU EM administration.
The resources and facilities in the institution that will be available to each resident include computer access to Up To Date and the LSU Library services, including current texts in OBGYN and emergency medicine. The residents will have access to the resources of the hospital including call rooms, the LSU Medical Library, Hospital medical texts, medical records and the cafeteria.
The clinical experiences, duties and responsibilities the resident will have on the rotation: Residents will act as a part of the OBGYN team under the supervision of a staff physician. The residents will participate in the initial management and care of OBGYN patients.
The relationship that will exist between emergency medicine residents and faculty on the service: The overall goals of resident education and patient care will govern the relationship between faculty and residents. Residents will receive 24 hour supervision while on the rotation. All patient care and medical charts will be reviewed and signed by the OBGYN faculty daily and prior to patient discharge.
Duty hours for this rotation will not exceed an average of 80hrs/week, call not longer than 24 consecutive hours and will include 1 in 7 days off.
This rotation summary has been reviewed and agreed to by the service director and LSU Program Director.
