BACKGROUND: Lack of exposure to surgery in the preclinical years of medical school contributes to students' negative opinions of the field and to low application rates to categorical surgical programs. METHODS: Forty preclinical medical students attended a series of 16 seminars and practice sessions covering the gamut of surgical specialties and basic technical skills. Students were given a Likert format survey before and after taking the course. RESULTS: Students gave high ratings to course content (4.26/5) and lecturers (4.54/5). Students' confidence in their surgical skills doubled (1.45/5 to 3/5, P < .0001), and their perceived readiness for the surgical clerkship increased by 73% (1.63/5 to 2.82/5, P = .007). CONCLUSIONS: The preclinical years offer a promising venue for improving medical student interest and performance in surgery. 相似文献

Transplant surgical workforce concerns have arisen in the last 5 years as reflected in challenges securing job opportunities for new fellows. The present survey was designed by the ASTS Membership and Workforce Committee to describe the current practice characteristics of transplant centers in order to estimate changes in the workforce. The survey questionnaire requested information about the transplant programs, the transplant surgeons involved in the program, and the estimated changes in the staffing of the program over the next 3 years. Seventy‐one transplant centers responded from a total of 235 identified and queried (30.2% response rate), with median responding centers per UNOS region of 7 (IQR 4.5‐8.5). The recruitment outlook for the next 3 years forecasts a positive inflow of surgeons at a 2:1 rate (incoming:leaving). The new female transplant workforce within the responding cohort has increased from 3.7% in 1980 to 18.4% in 2010. Currently, 13.1% of practicing US transplant surgeons in this survey are female which is higher than many other surgical specialties. This report represents the most up‐to‐date view into the abdominal transplant surgical workforce. The positive job recruitment outlook for transplant surgeons and the narrowing gender gap are new findings from this study. 相似文献

In plastic surgery patient education is important but time consuming. It can be performed face-to-face or it can be computer based. In order to examine the merits of computer-based patient education, a research of the literature was carried out. The results of this search show that computer-based education is of great potential benefit. Especially in retaining information, informed consent and time management in the medical practice.The Isala Klinieken supported this research project with a grant for medical careAn invited commentary to this paper is available at 相似文献

Background
Simulation can enhance learning effectiveness, efficiency, and patient safety and is engaging for learners.Methods
A survey was conducted of surgical clerkship directors nationally and medical students at 5 medical schools to rank and stratify simulation-based educational topics. Students applying to surgery were compared with others using Wilcoxon's rank-sum tests.Results
Seventy-three of 163 clerkship directors (45%) and 231 of 872 students (26.5%) completed the survey. Of students, 28.6% were applying for surgical residency training. Clerkship directors and students generally agreed on the importance and timing of specific educational topics. Clerkship directors tended to rank basic skills, such as examination skills, higher than medical students. Students ranked procedural skills, such as lumbar puncture, more highly than clerkship directors.Conclusions
Surgery clerkship directors and 4th-year medical students agree substantially about the content of a simulation-based curriculum, although 4th-year medical students recommended that some topics be taught earlier than the clerkship directors recommended. Students planning to apply to surgical residencies did not differ significantly in their scoring from students pursuing nonsurgical specialties. 相似文献8.

Background
This study examined the methodologic quality of medical education research published in The American Journal of Surgery (AJS) relative to other journals and in AJS itself over time.Methods
Medical Education Research Study Quality Instrument (MERSQI) scores were determined for 198 education studies published in 2003 in 13 peer-reviewed journals including AJS and all 38 AJS education studies published in 2007.Results
In 2003, the mean (standard deviation) MERSQI scores of AJS studies were 11.03 (2.12) compared with 9.83 (2.37) for studies published in the other 12 journals (P = .03). AJS studies received higher scores for response rate (P < .001) and content validity (P = .03) than other journals. The mean MERSQI scores among AJS studies remained constant between 2003 and 2007 (12.03 [2.35] vs 11.03 [2.12], P = .13).Conclusions
Education studies published in AJS compared favorably with those published in other journals, and this quality was maintained over time. Nonetheless, there is room for improvement with respect to study designs and outcome assessment. 相似文献10.

Regular journal reading is an important part of continuing medical education. Because time for study is limited we should concentrate on reading only those articles that are relevant, valid and applicable. Some guidelines for this selection are discussed. 相似文献

With the ongoing coronavirus, journals and the media have extensively covered the impacts on doctors, nurses, physician assistants, and other healthcare workers. However, one group that has rarely been mentioned despite being significantly impacted is medical students and medical education overall. This piece, prepared by both a medical student and a cardiothoracic surgeon with a long career in academic medicine, discusses the recent history of medical education and how it has led to issues now with distance-based learning due to COVID-19. It concludes with a call to action for the medical education system to adapt so it can meet the needs of healthcare learners during COVID-19 and even beyond. 相似文献

Twenty-first century medical education will be dramatically improved by our rapidly evolving understanding of how to more efficiently, effectively and affordably train future health care providers. The following describes a paradigm that uses Blue Ocean Strategies in training osteopathic physicians and thus, rapidly differentiates osteopathic medical education from contemporary approaches to medical education. By replacing the current medical education system with this model, osteopathic medical education is provided an opportunity to emerge as the standard for training future health care providers. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: While much research has addressed physician competency, the development of confidence has not been studied. We sought to identify which elements of internship residents feel most contributed to building their confidence. METHODS: By anonymous survey, University of Pennsylvania residents rated 104 internship elements for contribution to building physician confidence and reported their subjective confidence during and since internship. RESULTS: Two hundred ten residents in 18 specialties participated. Detailed ratings for all 104 elements are provided. Generally, independent decision-making items and good back-up support were equally highly valued, as was developing work efficiency. Poorly valued items included high patient loads, long hours, and abusive interactions. Surgical and medical residents agreed. Mean confidence increased during internship from 12 to 32 (1-100 scale) but remained in the 50s during residency for most specialties. CONCLUSIONS: Faculty should make informed, deliberate attempts to provide those elements identified as most fostering the development of physician confidence. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Recent changes in medical education have emphasized primary care careers. This could have a negative impact on the number of applicants to surgical residencies. We hypothesized that experiences during the third year surgical clerkship are influential for students' subsequent residency choice. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Third year medical students who completed their surgical clerkship in the 2001-02 academic year were surveyed pre- and post-surgical clerkship. Responses were analyzed and correlated to the 2003 match results. RESULTS: The response rate of students surveyed was 98% (82 surveys/83 match results). Pre-clerkship, 6/82 students (7%) expressed an interest in surgery or surgical subspecialty careers. Post-clerkship, 34/84 students (40%) expressed an increased interest a surgical career; 13/84 (15%) expressed a decreased interest, and 37% of students expressed no change in career interest. Of those students expressing an increased interest in surgery, the clerkship experiences most noted to be influential were (1) number of cases participated/scrubbed (95%), (2) resident interaction (85%), (3) faculty interaction (80%), and (4) number of cases observed (65%). The number of hours spent on rotation (call, rounds) was the leading experience associated with a decreased interest in a surgical career. 12/83 students surveyed (14%) ultimately matched into a surgical program (NRMP 2003 match results). CONCLUSIONS: These data suggest that operative exposure and interaction with residents and faculty have a positive influence in students' choice of a surgical career. Although only 6% of students expressed an interest in surgery pre-clerkship, a 2-fold increase in this number was noted in choice of residency (14%). Work hours were the primary negative indicator for surgery residency. As medical curriculum is restructured and surgical exposure decreased, these data underscore the importance of quality exposure to both procedures and role models during the 3rd year surgical clerkship. 相似文献
