The purpose of this study is to identify if the previously reported declining interest in surgery amongst medical students persists, and also provide more descriptive analysis trends by surgical specialty school. Our hypothesis that decreasing remains constant for some disciplines.The Canadian Resident Matching Service Association Faculties Medicine Canada provided data study. Several metrics surgery, including overall application trends, applications discipline, rankings school graduation...
To assess the effect Pre-clerkship Residency Exploration Program (PREP) had on student career interest and improving understanding of physical medicine rehabilitation (PMR).During a 2-week program, students were exposed to PMR elective, workshop, presentation, panel discussion with residents. Interest assessed using pre- postprogram questionnaires.PREP was held at Canadian medical school during summer between second third years undergraduate training.Second-year participants (N=40) (26 women...
Background: Exposure to specialties significantly influences medical student career decisions; however, many students feel they are not adequately introduced particular until the end of their undergraduate training, if at all. Therefore, Pre-clerkship Residency Exploration Program (PREP) was established. PREP designed reduce concerns regarding decisions, while increasing exposure that traditionally receive less in school curricula. Methods: a two-week elective available second year (n = 40)...
This study evaluated the relationship between medical student Grit and thoracic surgery career interest.
Background Patients with large bony defects of the ankle who wish to avoid amputation have limited surgical intervention options for limb salvage. Each these interventions are technically complex and present significant risk complications. The use a patient-specific 3D-printed titanium cage in conjunction tibiotalocalcaneal (TTC) arthrodesis using retrograde nail is another management option. This case adds scarce published literature on this technique. Case presentation report presents...
Background: Most Canadian medical schools do not have mandatory cardiology rotations. Early exposure to clinical aids career navigation, but clerkship selectives are chosen during pre-clerkship. This study investigates whether prior elective experiences affect student interest as well understanding of before selections.
 Methods: A literature search was conducted using Google Scholar, Embase and PubMed create an evidence-based cross-sectional survey. The anonymous questionnaire...
Background: The number of students applying to surgical residency programs is declining. reasons are multi- factorial, however early exposure has been shown increase application rates and decrease attrition rates. objective this study evaluate the Surgical Exploration Discovery (SEAD) program, an on its efficacy influence medical school electives. Methods: Two online surveys were distributed participants SEAD program from 2016-2017.The addressed demographics prior exposure, role influencing...
Background As Radiation Oncology (RO) is a field with limited exposure in undergraduate medical education curricula, the information sources used to form students' perception of can have substantial impact on whether students decide pursue experiences RO. Furthermore, effects single elective experience RO strongly influence career decisions as it may serve only for gain an understanding specialty. This study analyzes which use and most value when forming their both before after participating...
Breast hypertrophy is known to be a source of both physical and psychosocial health deficits. Therefore, the ability relieve these symptoms with surgical treatment an important consideration for patients. The primary objective this study was assess impact patient body mass index (BMI) on postoperation complications. secondary demographics, techniques, comorbidities their specific postoperative complications.A retrospective chart review all patients who received bilateral breast reduction...
Surgeon-performed ultrasound has become a valuable tool in our hand surgery practice. Just like we use fluoroscopy to see and manage fractures clinic, enabled us rapidly evaluate flexor tendons help preoperative planning. Surgeons usually find that learning the skill of is relatively easy because they are so familiar with anatomy pathology every time operate. Videos available on internet articles this one enable surgeons therapists learn these skills at home without expense attending courses...
