Overview:
We welcome you, our global IR community, to another exciting and educational Risk Management, Quality and Safety Symposium. To facilitate attendance of global participants, this year’s meeting will be held virtually via livestream (CME Meeting) on Friday, September 9th and Saturday, September 10th, 2022. It will follow our 2nd annual Medical Student and Trainee IR Device and Risk Management Bootcamp which will be held in Boston, MA at Boston University’s Questrom School of Business on Friday, September 9th 2022.
The symposium’s ongoing mission is to provide a constructive community space that supports honest, in depth and informative insights on the ever-evolving, multi-dimensional landscape of complications, adverse events, medical error, risk management and litigation in IR through engaging collegial sessions that provide practical learning for all members of the IR team.
Our goal with this IR Risk Management, Quality and Safety conference is to fill a current educational void in the field of IR that supports constructive practice-building discussions and peer-learning on complications, ethics, and controversial issues in IR, designed for practicing Interventional Radiologists, IRs-in-training, and IR APPs, with special attention to early career IRs. To accomplish this objective, this year’s exciting agenda will include the 5-following core educational components:
1. Industry and IR: Conflicts of Interest: (Friday, September 9th, 2022)
2. Second Victim Syndrome: the IR Perspective: (Friday, September 9th, 2022)
3. Standards of Practice Debate: (Friday, September 9th, 2022)
4. Identity, Challenges and Risk Management in IR: (Saturday, September 10th, 2022)
5. Complications Mastermind, Misses and Near Misses in the IR Suite: (Saturday, September 10th, 2022)
