Dear group,

We are beginning to create an online classroom for teaching and learning the tips and tricks of performing MSICS.  (this is not to infer that we are hoping folks will just learn online and then go out and practice without supervision)   However, we are paralleling a project that ASCRS is creating to make an online Phaco classroom.

I am collecting videos of all potential variations for each step of the procedure.  I would like to have a video library which contains the best variations for each step.  

For instance, we will have short videos of all variations for ways capsular opening is done, variations of incisional construction, variations of nucleus prolapse, variations of nucleus extraction etc.

We will also want videos of entire procedures with the intricacies explained however that will be a separate library.

If you have videos of your cases or would be able to produce some that could be utilized for this collection, please respond to this email.  If you are interested in helping construct this online MSICS classroom or have other ideas for this project, please respond as well so that we can discuss it in our group.

Thanks,

Stan Pletcher

Dear all,

Sorry for the delay.  I am excited to say that we are near completion of the MSICS online classroom which we hope to have ready to release at ASCRS next month.

I will send the link shortly to anyone who has replied to this thread and has interest in participating.  So far I have heard from Dr. Yee and Dr. Peggy Chang (Guatemala), Dr. Gallarreta (Uruguay), Dr. Sitki(Turkey), Dr. Pettey (USA), and Dr. Mohideen (India)

Let me know if anyone else is interested in this initial involvement as we start it up.

The site allows one to easily link any Youtube video that you have to show to the community.  So if you have any videos that you would like to share, please place them on Youtube and we can easily link them up.  If there are videos that are not on Youtube, we can also upload them as well, but we will try to allow Youtube to host most of the videos for ease of management.
In addition, it will be easy to upload an article or powerpoint presentation.

Thanks for all that have commented and encouraged this to move forward.  We'll look forward to this being a wonderful collaboration ground.

Stan

Hi Stan
Since I am receiving email about this I guess I am signed up.  This is going to be a great asset for instructing surgeons not accustomed to MSICS and I am looking forward to previewing the videos.  Thanks for getting this started.  I would love to meet you in person some time. Will you be at ASCRS in SF?
Thanks
Jim Salz
