The division and in-patient elective service is located at the Royal Victoria Hospital. The service provides consultative and emergency service for both the Royal Victoria Hospital and the Montreal General Hospital.
Electives would be available to 2 students per rotation. In the elective, the student will function as an integral part of the Vascular Surgery Service. The elective student can expect direct access and teaching from the vascular staff in a series of ambulatory clinics, on weekly ward rounds, during the weekly ÎÛÎÛ²ÝÝ®ÊÓƵ Vascular Surgery Conference and in the operating room. This elective is the only clinical service available in medicine or surgery that is primarily dedicated to disease of the vascular system (arterial, venous, lymphatic) in all parts of the body (cerebrovascular, thoracic, abdominal and peripheral vascular).
The student will learn the key elements of clinical, non-invasive and invasive assessment of vascular disease. The service has a busy operative schedule for those interested in operative exposure; however, this does not have to be the focus of an elective student. The student should expect to leave the elective with a solid understanding of diseases involving the vascular system that would be applicable in many other fields of medicine. The student will also be exposed to many common medical conditions (diabetes, heart disease, renal disease, pulmonary disease) which will require management during the period of surgical intervention. Clinical research projects can also be arranged during the elective period if the elective student wishes.ÌýRequests for electives of less than 2Ìýweeks duration are not considered.
