Clinical Data Manager jobs in United Kingdom

The Thoracic Unit Services

The Unit deals with the full spectrum of adult thoracic surgery apart from lung transplantation and oesophageal surgery. Approximately 1000 thoracic procedures are performed annually. The unit has a national reputation as a large volume minimally invasive surgical unit with established robot and video assisted thoracoscopic surgery programs. Last year, over 95% of procedures were performed using a minimally invasive approach. The thoracic surgery service provides a comprehensive thoracic surgery practice, which includes anatomical (lobar/sublobar) and non-anatomical lung resections, mediastinal surgery, lung volume reduction procedures (LVRS, BLVR), interventional airway management (cryotherapy, laser ablation, stents), chest wall surgery (slipped rib syndrome, pectus correction), pleural procedures and thoracic trauma (rib fixation, emergency procedures). The unit is currently aiming to further expand its services by developing a robotic bronchoscopy program.

Due to the nature of St. George's hospital as one of the largest hospitals in the UK with, uniquely all services on site, Thoracic surgery works with and supports many other services. This includes combined ENT thoracic surgery operating lists and ad hoc operating lists with many other specialities including Plastics, Upper GI surgery and Neurosurgery.
