Series Overview

The Department of Surgery M&M (Morbidity and Mortality) Conference is a weekly conference that features complications submitted and presented by residents involved in those cases. Cases are submitted to a secure database each week and are reviewed and selected for presentation by the faculty moderator. Residents focus their presentations on what happened to cause the complication and what could be done to prevent the complication for future cases (increase medical knowledge, improve systems-based issues, improve team communication) and cite scholarly works to further back up their presentations.

Target Audience

This activity is designed for UW Department of Surgery faculty, residents and other healthcare professionals interested in clinical effectiveness and efficacy as it relates to patient care and disease processes.
