Abstract: | ObjectiveRadiology residents in their final year of training at our institution are required to deliver a grand rounds presentation prior to graduation in order to facilitate resident involvement in the medical tradition of ground rounds. We evaluated this requirement by conducting a survey of recent residency alumni on their experience delivering grand rounds and its perceived value in radiology training.Materials and methodsWe developed an anonymous, 10-question survey regarding the alumni experience with the grand rounds presentation requirement, which has been required since 2007. Question formats included yes-or-no and 5 point Likert-type formats, as well as a space to provide comments.ResultsEighty-three alumni were contacted and 39 responded (46.9% response rate). Current practice setting was academic in 41.0%, 46.2% have reused material from their presentation, and 46.2% have given a grand rounds presentation since completing residency. When asked if delivering the presentation was a valuable experience, 2.6% disagreed, 23.1% were neutral, 35.9% agreed, and 38.5% strongly agreed. When asked if they would recommend future senior residents to give a grand rounds presentation, 2.6% strongly disagreed, 30.8% were neutral, 30.8% agreed, and 35.9% strongly agreed.ConclusionsThe majority of survey respondents agree or strongly agree their grand rounds presentation experience was valuable and would recommend future residents to continue this process. Based on survey comments, we conclude this experience is valuable for multiple reasons, including the opportunity to demonstrate mastery of a radiology topic, the ability to repurpose presentation material in the future, and the experience of delivering a formal presentation. |
