PGCME – 2018

Comments & Verbatim

Feedback & Evaluation

Information presented at course will help me improve:

  • Facing examination in both theoretical & practical view.
  • Detailed evaluation and avoiding unnecessary investigation. The patient management to avoid unnecessary transfusion
  • My skills performing in the examination also to prepare for a carrier in this aspect of Medicine
  • Exposure to all the related fields of Haematology and the necessary diagnosis workup behind the diagnosis has encouraged me for further studies and work
  • Approach to the disease diagnosis and enhanced my knowledge about the treatment and impact of my reports on patient management

The material presented will be incorporated in my practice in the following way:

  • Providing correct treatment as per latest protocol. Using the available resources esp. blood products more carefully
  • The integration of the clinical scenario with the laboratory functioning
  • My applying the knowledge gain in day to day practice
  • I have an increased awareness about the effectiveness of therapies of malignancies
  • Management and Research. To improve the quality of service to the patient
  • More correlation between lab values and what is expected from me with regard to management
  • Treat the patients effectively with available resources to refer early
  • I am from Govt medical college form TN. I can't incorporate any of these advanced technique

I have the following recommendations for improvement of the program:

  • Pathology and Medicine topics can be deal separately
  • Extend the duration of the Programme
  • Discussion of the answer of quiz. Clinical ward rounds if possible want to see how different lab investigations are being done throughout procedure
  • To increase seats (To include 1st and 2nd year M.D's)
  • Continuous in sessions without a break is brain draining, that was my problem otherwise the lecture were crystal clear
  • Excellent CME- by taken CMC, Kindly spends more time for clinical case discussion. It has really enlightened us on how to approach a patient and how to interpret various lab tests.
  • Break the CME into 4 separate days to avoid time concerns and to avoid fed up

I would suggest the following topics for future CME:

  • More regarding Cytogenetics
  • Thal/SCD, More exposes to bone marrow transplant
  • Sessions were very informative but exhaustive, Felt more pathology overload (more benefited for pathology students) Try to include more clinical aspects that would benefit PG in medicine and Paedicatricians
  • Basic peripheral smear interpretation for non-pathology PG, Quiz- prelims and finals in the evening session.
  • Approach to flowcytometry and cytogenetics in details.
  • Aplastic anemia, MDS
  • Try to include more clinical topics

Additional Comments/Suggestions:

  • Extraordinary program, well organised, well satisfied, have never attained such a CME before. All the important topics for clinical seems to be grounded in the end day of the CME and we find it difficult to follow the entire topics due to its huge volume and less time for presentations. Thanking you for this Wonderful CME
  • Increase the number of CME Days, Good work by CMC, Credit to hematology Crew
  • We would really be benefited if we have postings in clinical hematology so that we would really know the holistic approach of a haemat patient.
  • Case discussion and laboratory is very informative
  • Tour of the laboratories was very helpful. Especially for the pathology PGs. Kindly upload all the ppts.
  • Discussion of topics well nice. All laboratory tour programs were very useful when we are compared to some new techniques probably when we used in book only. Time maintenance & arrangement of lunch is also excellent.
  • Need many CME programs with case discussions
  • Sessions were very informative but exhaustive, Felt more pathology overload (more benefited for pathology students) Try to include more clinical aspects that would benefit PG in medicine and Paedicatricians
  • Wonderful organization, Punctuality, clarity and relevance of topics
  • Add on more practical orientation treatment and follow-up
  • Thank you for this great experience. We don't have facilities for sophisticated techniques at our college and this CME gave an opportunity to understand many things, starting from basics.
  • Excellent in time management. Clarify in the topics. Simple & Understandable Slides. Lots of case oriented discussion. Excellent + CME I have attended so far
  • Lab tour can be given more time than lecturers
