Hello, I am Dr. Lia Tadesse. I am an OBGYN at St. Paul Hospital Millennium Medical College (in Addis Ababa).

This educational program for Caesarean section

is meant for medical students, residents, IESO (integrated emergency surgery and obstetrics) students,

and other health professional students who would like to learn about Caesarean section.

It has different components:

case studies which will help you learn about the indications, complications, and other components about Caesarean section.

It also has surgical videos, which show the step by step approach of the procedure with explanations.

Then after that, you can check yourself to see how much knowledge you have gained about Caesarean section by using the self-assessment section.

The self-assessment quiz also includes answers with detailed explanations.

There are additional links to help you gain knowledge from other resources.

I hope you'll enjoy this program.
