GENERAL INFORMATION

(SMASTI) is the academic wing of SNH. The training is imparted under the aegis of International Association of Minimal Access Surgeons (IAMAS). SMASTI offers minimal access surgery training in various specialities like laparoscopic and general surgery, gynaecology and hysteroscopy, upper and lower GI endoscopy. It also offers Residency Programs to already practicing minimal access surgeons, who want to enhance their skills and competence. Laparoscopic surgery is industry and technology driven. With the rapid pace of upgradation of technology, the surgeon also has to keep updated about the recently launched instruments and devices in the market. At SNH, the candidates are taught in detail about the latest hand instruments, both disposable and reusable, access instruments, and optical instruments including different types of camera systems. The USP of training at SNH is that it is a hands-on training program, which includes observing and assisting in the first few cases followed by performing surgeries under the close guidance of the consultant, keeping in mind patient safety.

SMASTI provides one of the best infrastructure in the world for laparoscopic training distributed in 30,000 square feet Area. Classes and Lab of “Hands On” training are ultramodern and high tech to ensure that every surgeon and gynecologist have the chance to identify their individual needs and prescribe individualized training methods. Though at least half of our Hands-On class time is dedicated to the lab and Operation Theatre, we keep the lab open 12 hours a day so you can access it after hours whenever you like for independent study. The place is yours; do with it whatever you like with proper care of instrument.

But that isn’t all: at each location our secure Laparoscopic Lab is open 8 hours a day for your independent practice. Our faculty at SMASTI are present for the entire course, preceptive at the real OT live surgery, present in lab, at every break and during lunchtimes, always available to attendees to teach suturing, knotting, all small tricks, standards of care and laparoscopic excellence.

Technical skills in the field of laparoscopic surgery have been taught in specialized training centers for last ten years. Studies have shown that unlike open surgery, mere observing cases or assisting a surgeon does not improve the necessary skill to become a laparoscopic surgeon. Ergonomics and physics of laparoscopic surgery is completely different than open surgery and mastery of hand-eye coordination requires thorough exposure over state of the art HD wet operating room tissue followed by same skill demonstration in operation theatre. Laparoscopic techniques skill acquisition need “Hands On” training under specialized guidance of expert laparoscopic surgeon because the field of view is limited, peripheral vision is not possible and the operative field is represented in two dimensions on a video monitor. Unlike open surgery, where the surgeon is facilitated verbally and manually through assistantship from the opposite side of the operating table, in video-endoscopic surgery, verbal directives is not of much help and there is an increased reliance on the technical skills of the surgeon. To achieve these basic skills and to imbibe the principles of laparoscopic surgery, training in simulated operative environments and observation of state of the art surgery in operation theatre has become a necessity.

It is logical to expect that those who have obtained higher specialized degree from reputed institute can only pass on the knowledge and experience to the peers in structured way. Most of the faculty of other institute is surgeons without having any degree in Laparoscopic surgery. Whereas our Chief faculty and the Director Dr.Narin Sehgal. MBBS, MS (GEN. SURG), FIAGES, D.G.E. (GERMANY) Minimal Access, Bariatric & General Surgery.
Dr. Sehgal was among the early few to adopt Laparoscopy in India and to propagate and contribute to its growth – he has been conducting Laparoscopic Surgery since 1993 including basic and advanced Lap surgeries, Gynae surgeries and Urology surgeries. He is also highly experienced in Stapler Haemmorrhoidopexy, Transanal Haemorrhoidal Dearterialization and STARR. Under Cystoscopy & Ureteroscopy his expertise lies in TURB, TURBT, Bladder Stone, Ureteroscopic and Removal of Stones.

F.MAS and D.MAS are separate course and after finishing Fellowship in Minimal Access Surgery (F.MAS) anytime in future you can finish your Diploma in Minimal Access Surgery (D.MAS).
