The Michigan Urological Surgery Improvement Collaborative aims to improve outcomes for urologic care. Each podcast will explore the many ways we do just that.
Guest speakers Drs. Gary Faerber, Kevin Turner, Scott Eggener discuss topics such as managing bleeding after ureteroscopy, coping with adverse events, and the emotional struggle of major complications during surgery.
This webinar includes a discussion of PSMA PET Scan for prostate cancer management, optimizing pain management for patients undergoing shockwave lithotripsy, and the KIDNEY Roadmap for the management of T1 renal masses, among other highlights.
A panel of physicians including Dr. Brian Lane, Dr. Craig Rogers, Dr. Sam Bhayani, Dr. Alice Semerjian, Dr. Alon Weizer, and Dr. Jeremy Johnson discuss surgical techniques while reviewing partial nephrectomy videos.
Dr. Semerjian presents updates to MUSIC's Notable Outcomes and Trackable Events after Surgery (NOTES) uncomplicated recovery pathway to improve patient care and recovery post RP.Through efforts from the MI Pain-control Optimization Pathway (MPOP) RP & MI OPEN collab there are > 800 fewer pts receiving opioids and > 16K fewer pills in the community per year. Dr. George shares progress and next steps for MUSIC's statewide opioid-free RP pathway.Dr. Rogers discusses the complications of partial and radical nephrectomy and introduces the KIDNEY NOTES initiative. Causes of and ways to prevent ED visits and readmissions after nephrectomy are discussed by Dr. Butaney.Dr. Dauw explores the large-scale data on UA/UC before surgery and Dr. Rene Frontera presents data from the Michigan Institute of Urology.
This webinar focuses on expert speakers, Thomas Hope, MD and Matthew Cooperberg, MD, MPH providing insight on PSMA PET becoming standard clinical imaging. This webinar also discusses surgery versus radiation for treatment of High-Risk Prostate Cancer with talks and video review from Alice Semerjian, MD, Robert Dess, MD, and James Peabody, MD.
This episode includes a talk from Dr. Alice Semerjian on avoiding unnecessary radical nephrectomy and updates from Dr. Brian Lane on chest imaging and RENL score documentation. Dr. Casey Dauw provides updates from the ROCKS team, including PRO enrollment and discussion about understanding the patient experience after ureteroscopy. Finally, Dr. Christian Pavlovich gives insight on integrating TP biopsy into clinical practice.
This episode will focus on expert speakers providing evidence based solutions to common clinical scenarios for all urologists. Scenarios include, ureteral access sheath use, stone treatment strategies (dusting vs busting), and types of ureteral stents and their appropriate use. Expert surgeons include: Drs. Michael Borofsky MD, Ojas Shah MD, and Peggy Pearle, MD, PhD.
This episode includes an update on confirmatory testing in active surveillance for men with prostate cancer with a presentation from Dr. Alice Semerjian. We also discuss imaging after kidney stone surgery with Dr. Casey Dauw and other experts in the field. Finally, Dr. Phillip Pierorazio, associate professor of Urology at Johns Hopkins Medicine, explores surveillance for renal masses and the KIDNEY team reveals the surveillance appropriateness panel results.
This webinar supports MUSIC's goal to help more patients achieve earlier return of urinary continence following surgery. This nationwide webinar will focuses on: Video review techniques of bladder neck dissection, nerve sparing, and apical dissection Featuring the new online MUSIC video library Discussion of patient discharge pathways
This webinar includes an update on efforts to reduce opioid use after radical prostatectomy with a presentation from Dr. Chad Brummett on, “The role of acute care prescribing in the Opioid Epidemic,” a discussion of MUSIC's proposed ureteroscopy stent omission appropriateness criteria with Dr. J. Stuart Wolf sharing his perspectives on ureteral stenting, and an update from the KIDNEY team on next steps in improving care for patients with a small renal mass diagnosis.
