Laparoscopic peritoneal entry preferences among Canadian gynaecologists

Abstract: the response rate to the survey was 45.6%

"CONCLUSIONS: Our survey had a significant response rate and was able to delineate current laparoscopic entry practice patterns of gynaecologists, which were consistent across Canada. Despite 72.9% of respondents reporting familiarity with the recent SOGC clinical practice guideline, it appears that clinical practice does not necessarily coincide with current recommendations. These variances in gynaecological practice emphasize the need for further educational initiatives to ensure that the evidence from research is used to make clinical practice safer."
