Course history.
The “Minimally Invasive and Laparoscopic Surgery” course of the Faculty of Postgraduate Education at the Samarkand State Medical Institute was established on 3 March 2021 on the basis of the Department of Surgical Diseases No. 1. The course staffing was approved for two positions. Pulat Azadovich Askarov, Candidate of Medical Sciences (Cand. Med. Sci.), was appointed as the course head. By Rector’s Order of the Samarkand State Medical University dated 18 September 2023, No. 438 AF, the course was separated from the department (established as an independent unit).
Pulat Azadovich Askarov was born on December 2, 1976, in the city of Samarkand. In 2002, he graduated from the Faculty of Medicine of Samarkand State Medical Institute. After graduating from the institute, he worked as a surgeon at the Samarkand military hospital. In 2003-2006, he completed his master's degree at the SamMI Department of Faculty and Hospital Surgery, and later as an assistant at the same department. From 2011 to 2021. Pulat Azadovich worked as a resident and head of the surgery department at the SamMI Clinic I. Since 2021, he has been the head of the "Maloinvasive and Laparoscopic Surgery" course at SamSMU. In 2019, he successfully defended his candidate dissertation on the topic: "Factor analysis in surgery of "fresh" bile duct injuries." Currently, she is working on her doctoral dissertation on the topic: "Surgery of Complicated Forms of Gallstone Disease Using Hybrid Technologies."
Spiritual and educational activities
At the "Information Hours" course systematically conducted by the staff, the cadets are familiarized with the works of the President, the decisions of the sessions of the "Oliy Majlis," the Cabinet of Ministers of the Republic of Uzbekistan. Cadets are also informed about the latest achievements in the world of medicine, in the political arena. For the purpose of forming high moral qualities in cadets, fostering a high level of culture, universal norms, and patriotism, appropriate conversations are held.
During the national holidays "Independence Day," "Teacher's Day," Constitution Day, and Defender of the Fatherland Day, conversations are held about the Republic's achievements over the past period.
Educational and Methodological Activities.
At the "Maloinvasive and Laparoscopic Surgery" course, FDPO students are trained in the programs "Maloinvasive and Laparoscopic Surgery," "Fundamentals of Endovideosurgery," and "Endoscopic Diagnostics." The classes are practically oriented and aimed at the phased formation of students' skills in applying modern minimally invasive technologies.
In the direction of clinical residency, highly qualified surgeon specialists are being trained. Within the "Maloinvasive and Laparoscopic Surgery" specialty, theoretical and practical classes are conducted; the curriculum is implemented throughout the academic year in close cooperation between the department's faculty and the clinic's doctors. Key professional competencies are formed: preoperative preparation, laparoscopic access selection and troakar placement, working with endovideosystems, safe instrumentation, prevention, and management of complications.
The course supports cooperation with other medical universities and specialized clinics of the republic: during the academic year, an exchange of information and advanced approaches in the field of minimally invasive surgery is organized.
Training for each program and for each contingent is conducted based on the following approved documents: - Qualification characteristic; State educational standard; Curriculum; Working program.
Educational technologies include: changes made in accordance with the Order of the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Uzbekistan No. 160; approved diagnostic standards; approved treatment standards; international recommendations; modern pedagogical technologies (graphic organizers, case technologies, project method).
Technical support of the educational process.
The department has a telecommunication system: video lectures, recordings of laparoscopic operations, presentations, and multimedia materials are demonstrated in classes via monitors/TVs connected to the central computer. A unified database of visual materials has been created, covering anatomical guidelines, operational stages, and tool nomenclature for all sections of the curriculum.
Within the framework of the skill lab, training sessions are conducted on troakar installation, knotting, tool manipulation, endoscopic suturing, and working with power devices; boxing coaches and simulation models are used.
Course Library. The fund includes literature in Russian, Uzbek, and English on minimally invasive and laparoscopic surgery: textbooks, teaching aids, monographs, and video atlases. The electronic library contains textbooks, atlases, educational and methodological materials, etc. The fund's renewal is carried out annually. The department staff, in collaboration with medical universities, colleges, and technical schools of the republic, are preparing educational and methodological publications.
For the students, clinical practice is organized: examination and observation of patients, analysis of clinical cases, formation of diagnostic and treatment plans. The diagnostic module includes: physical examination, ultrasound, radiology, CT (if necessary, MRI), endoscopic studies; laboratory studies - general clinical and biochemical analyses, coagulogram, etc.
Students maintain a portfolio of practical skills (case log): observing operations, participating as an assistant, and staged preparation for independent completion. Assessment is conducted using OSCE elements, test control, case presentations, and practical skills sheet checks. At all stages, the requirements of infection control, patient safety, asepsis, and antisepsis are strictly observed.
Scientific activity.
Diseases of the hepatopancreatoduodenal zone (HPDZ) and gastroduodenal bleeding - diagnosis, risk stratification, and selection of optimal treatment tactics, including minimally invasive and hybrid technologies.
Bariatric surgery and gallstone surgery using hybrid (endoscopic laparoscopic) technologies aimed at reducing the invasiveness of interventions, the frequency of complications, and hospitalization times.
International cooperation
Since its inception, the course has been cooperating with the All-Russian Center for Emergency and Radiation Medicine of the Ministry of Emergency Situations of Russia (Saint Petersburg). Joint master classes, internships, telemedicine consultations, and scientific seminars are held annually. The partnership covers hybrid technologies in the surgeries of gastrointestinal diseases (GSD), emergency surgery, and bariatric surgery, as well as patient safety and radiation safety issues. The result is updated training modules and protocols, increased clinical effectiveness, and joint scientific projects.
