Dear Colleague,
We are delighted to welcome you to the first joint University of Auckland and New Zealand Society of Gastroenterology Nutrition Course.
This course is primarily aimed at trainees & consultants and offers a systematic three-day course in the day-to-day practice and evidence-based management of clinical nutrition. It is based on the nutrition curricula of the Royal Australasian College of Physicians Advanced Training in Gastroenterology, RACS & NZ Association of General Surgeons and the College of Intensive Care of Australia & New Zealand. The course is aligned with the Life Long Learning (LLL) Programme in Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism developed by ESPEN. The course aims to be highly interactive including scenario-based teaching sessions, practical workshops and discussions.
We are very grateful to the University of Auckland for providing the venue and administrative support for the course. We are equally grateful to our sponsors Fresenius Kabi, Biomed and Nutricia. Without this support we would not be able to provide the course at a cost that is affordable for trainees.
We are fortunate to have an international faculty and are very pleased to welcome Dr Andrew Rochford from the UK who is Chair of BAPEN Education & Training Committee. We hope that you will be able to take advantage of the course to network and share ideas with our faculty as well as each other.
We thank you in advance for your feedback for the three-day course, which is essential for its future improvement and development.
We hope you enjoy yourselves!
With the very best wishes,
Dr Russell Walmsley
On behalf of the University of Auckland and NZSG Nutition Course Organising Team.
The over-arching aim of the course is to provide a strong foundation of knowledge in Clinical Nutrition from which future Gastroenterologists, GI surgeons and Intensive Care specialists may build and develop a specialist interest.
The three - day course has the following objectives:
· Provide comprehensive and evidence - based clinical information on the assessment and management of patients who require nutritional support – from patients with intestinal failure to those requiring bariatric surgery. In addition, delegates will gain a basic understanding of key metabolic pathways and their relevance to clinical nutrition.
· Address all clinical nutrition learning outcomes within the RACP, RACS & CICM curricula.
· Provide an engaging and interactive learning experience in clinical nutrition using clinical scenarios, workshops and interactive discussions.
