Free Webinar – Surgical Guidelines During COVID-19

April 5, 2020 by SAGES Webmaster

The current public health crisis has exposed a gap in physicians’ knowledge, skills and performance. Because the SARS-Cov-2 virus is novel, there are new patient and team safety issues relating to surgery. SAGES has drafted and released a number of statements and resources since March 21, 2020.

As a result of participating in this webinar, learners will be more familiar with the content of the statements and recommendations and will be better prepared to implement SAGES recommendations in their own institution. CME Credit will be available for participants. This webinar will also be recorded and available on the SAGES website for review.
