Briefing
This course lasts two weeks and consisted of lectures, and 10 days of seminars and classes. Seminars were held in person which started at 8:00 and ended at around 9:30.
The classes consisted of discussing gastroenterological disorders, important treatment plans and having the opportunity to watch some endoscopies (mainly gastro - and coloscopies). You will have one day in the Simulation Center where you practice performing gastroscopies- colonoscopies which is quite interesting.
You may also get to practice performing the insertion of an NG tube with your assistant at some point during your 2 week placement.
At the end of the two weeks there was a 20 MCQ test.

We discussed many questions with our assistant the day before and therefore got to know what we needed to study.
