Abstract

Introduction and hypothesis

A process of added qualification of transvaginal mesh (TVM) placement is desirable.

Methods

Through a physician-led partnership of specialty societies, centers of excellence, and industry, a core curriculum encompassing mesh/graft biology, technical skills, and safety can be coupled with current educational endeavors instructing surgeons in the use of TVM. A posttest process can verify a knowledge-based competency in mesh/graft safety. An auditing process after implementation would be optimal.

Results

We recommend implementation of a five-step process in order to accomplish these goals.

Conclusions

It is hoped through these efforts, the ultimate goal of patient safety may be reached.
