Abstract

Gynaecological surgery is constantly evolving. To inform practicewith high-impact research, clinicians need to focus on areas ofimportance. Surveys of specialist members of the British Society ofGynaecological Endoscopy have revealed a range of areas forresearch: diagnostic performance of laparoscopies; therapeuticlaparoscopies in endometriosis; laparoscopic versus hysteroscopicsterilisation; and laparoscopic surgical techniques, among others.Clinical and economic outcomes are important in evaluatingeffectiveness and use of surgical health technology. For studies tobe valid, reliable and generalisable, they would have to be free ofbias, large and multi-centred. In a time of financial constraints, it isimportant to encourage clinicians and trainees to participate inimportant research studies to improve outcomes for patients. 2012 Elsevier Ltd.
