I'm new in USA, my experience in OR is a conventional one. I just been hired in a hospital where most of their equipment are endoscopes. I did have my few opportunity to scrubbed and circulate in some endoscopic procedure like Lap chole, appendectomy, etc.. but i never really perfected my skills on it, now in hospital where I'd be working deals a lot more in endoscopic procedures.. even with heart surgeries. is there anyone there who's kind enough to send me a brochure or study matterials on endoscope equipment, use, techniques, practices in different procedures that I need to learn? I would really appreciate it if you could give me a hand. anyhow I'm starting next month, I know the facility will definitely give me a hand on this but I want to at least read something about it before i actually get into action
thanks

I am going to move your thread to the Operating Room Forum, where you will get more of the information that you will need.
Any orientation here for new people to the OR is minimum of about three months. I understand that you are not new, but you will be getting at least this amount of training, as will all new hire to the facility, and new to the US.
Are you going to a new facility that recently opened in the LA area? Then I know which one that you will be at................:)
