MINIMALLY INVASIVE SURGERY FOR ICH: A PRACTICAL WORKSHOP

Saturday, March 15, 2025
7:00 am to 2:30 pm
Northwestern Center for Advanced Surgical Education (NCASE)
240 East Huron Street, Suite LC-0549, Chicago
 
Sponsored by Northwestern Medicine and the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine Department of Neurological Surgery
 
Course Director: Babak S. Jahromi, MD, PhD
 
With 40% mortality at one month and only 25% of patients functionally independent at six months, intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a devastating disease in dire need of an effective treatment. To date, clinical trials investigating a wide range of therapeutic options, including open surgery, aggressive blood pressure control and hemostatic agents, have not demonstrated a marked improvement in outcomes for this patient
population, resulting in a dearth of options and, at times, nihilism in care for these patients both locally and across the U.S.

In this program we will review current evidence and help educate practitioners on the latest interventions for ICH. Attendees will gain strategies for medical and surgical management of ICH along with hands-on training of endoscopic hemorrhage evacuation.
 
Program objectives
After attending this educational activity, participants should be able to:

  1. Review the natural history, trial data and current treatment options for intracerebral hemorrhage.
  2. Discuss medical interventions targeting hematoma growth, ICP control, anticoagulation reversal, seizure management and current state-of-the art neurointensive care for patients with ICH.
  3. Explain the evidence behind surgical interventions for ICH and the pros/cons of different techniques for minimally invasive ICH evacuation.
  4. Demonstrate proficiency in image-guided endoscopic evacuation of ICH in simulation lab using 3D printed heads.
 
Audience
This course is designed for physicians managing stroke patients, including neurologists, neurocritical care specialists and neurosurgeons.
 
Accreditation statement
The Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to provide continuing medical education for physicians.
 
Credit designation statement
The Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine designates this educational activity for a maximum of 5.75 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)™. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.
 
American Board of Surgery Continuous Certification Program
Successful completion of this CME activity, which includes participation in the evaluation component, enables the learner to earn credit toward the CME requirements of the American Board of Surgery’s Continuous Certification program. It is the CME activity provider's responsibility to submit learner completion information to ACCME for the purpose of granting ABS credit.
 
ABS CME credits will be submitted to the boards within 3 months of the conclusion of the activity.
