To evaluate interns' perceived preparedness for defined surgical residency responsibilities and to determine whether fourth-year medical school (M4) preparatory courses ("bootcamps") facilitate transition internship.The authors conducted a multi-institutional, mixed-methods study (June 2009) evaluating interns from 11 U.S. Canadian surgery programs. Interns completed structured surveys answered open-ended reflective questions about their internship. Analyses include t tests comparing ratings...
The graduate medical education system is tasked with training competent and autonomous health care providers while also improving patient safety, delivering more efficient care, cutting costs. Concerns about resident autonomy preparation for independent safe practice appear to be growing, the field of surgery faces unique challenges in preparing graduates practice. Multiple factors are contributing an erosion decreased operative experience, including differing views autonomy, financial...
Major changes in surgical practice and myriad external mandates have affected residency education surgery. The traditional surgery training model has come under scrutiny, calls for major reform of this been made by a variety stakeholders. American Surgical Association appointed Blue Ribbon Committee 2002 to consider the recent propose solutions that would ensure well-educated well-trained workforce future. This committee included representatives from Association, College Surgeons, Board...
The authors discuss the challenges facing a clinician who discovers that her patient has been harmed by another health care worker's medical error. They provide guidance to help clinicians and institutions disclose such errors patients.
The experience and lessons learned in the design, implementation initial evaluation of a demonstration faculty-to-faculty mentoring program, during time major institutional reorganization, are described. question addressed was: Can voluntary program be established with minimal resources effective context organizational change? Key design elements included two-tiered programs (one year preceptoring multi-year mentoring), participation, selection senior faculty members by junior members. A...
The process of acquiring new surgical skills beyond the period residency training should include selection a complete educational experience founded on disease-based approach rather than an isolated intervention. Deliberate practice and avoidance automaticity through establishment learning goals that exceed current level performance help in developing expertise. Division Education American College Surgeons (Chicago, Ill) has undertaken steps to support surgeons' efforts procedures...
Although we still have much to learn about incorporating simulation into regulatory-based assessments, the authors believe that sufficient evidence exists further advance use of simulation-based assessments as part regulatory systems for healthcare professionals. This position article reviews current assessment credentialing, licensing, and certification programs in medicine, nursing, dentistry. The findings support view can make a meaningful positive difference now.
