The role of the nurse hysteroscopist

摘要

This review describes the development of the BSGE nurse hysteroscopy training programme over the past 4 years. The programme attracts academic credit and is often a way into the Masters education pathway. A recent survey of qualified nurse hysteroscopists illustrates how much hospitals rely on these individuals for teaching, training and provision of services. All nurse hysteroscopists are working in outpatient hysteroscopy clinics and new developments within the training programme mean that they can now offer treatment as well as diagnosis.
