Abstract Background In addition to technical expertise, surgical competence requires effective non-technical skills ensure patient safety and maintenance of standards. Recently the Royal Australasian College Surgeons implemented a new Surgical Education Training (SET) curriculum that incorporated considered essential for competent surgeon. This study sought compare experienced surgeons who completed their training before introduction SET with more recent trainees. Methods trainees undertook...
<sec> <title>BACKGROUND</title> Current data analysis methods do not effectively support nurses in risk reduction as retrospective reporting lacks real-time insights and precludes proactive care. However, of administrative within Australia’s healthcare sector may have the potential to address this short coming. Predictive analytics can transform into meaningful insights, identifying harm profiles that benefit performance Australian international clinical programs. Importantly these tools...
To assess and report on surgeons' ability to identify manage incidences of harassment.The Royal Australasian College Surgeons is committed driving out discrimination, bullying, harassment, sexual harassment from surgical training practice, through changing the culture workplace. eradicate these behaviors, it first critical understand how current workforce responds actions.A retrospective analysis video data an operating theatre simulation was conducted surgeons, a range experience levels,...
Abstract Background Simulation is playing an increasingly important role in surgical education. There are a number of laparoscopic simulators which the design and tasks vary considerably. It unknown if any particular type may result better outcomes for specific population. This study assesses predictors acquisition basic skills on two different simulators. Methods Participants ( n = 370) were randomized to be trained assessed using either fundamentals surgery FLS ) or L ap S im urgical...
Abstract Background Training in basic laparoscopic skills can be undertaken using traditional methods, where trainees are educated by experienced surgeons through a process of graduated responsibility or simulation‐based training. This study aimed to assess whether simulation trained individuals reach the same level proficiency as participants when assessed simulated environment. Methods A prospective was undertaken. Participants were allocated one two cohorts according surgical experience....
Abstract Background Fatigue has been shown to have a negative impact on surgical performance. However, there is lack of research investigating its effect laparoscopy, particularly in A ustralia. This study investigated whether fatigue associated with surgeon's usual workday led measurable drop off laparoscopic skills as assessed simulator. Methods comparative involving two cohorts was undertaken: group whose data were collected prospectively compared historical control group. Participants...
Rapid reviews (RRs) are a method of evidence synthesis that can provide robust to support policy decisions in timely manner. Herein we describe the methods used conduct RRs and present an illustrative case study how be inform contemporary Australian health policy. The aim was explore several important aspects decision makers. conducted within limited time frames as little 4 weeks. Policy questions may focus on issues efficacy, service delivery organisation rather than reimbursement new...
Abstract Background Oesophageal diverticulitis is a rare condition with fewer than ten reports in the literature. We present case of oesophageal 71-year-old female history COPD, TIA, and known diverticulum. She was managed conservatively NBM, total parenteral nutrition intravenous antibiotics requiring 16-day inpatient stay. The rarity this poses challenges its diagnosis management, necessitating thorough understanding both conservative surgical interventions. This highlights complexity...
In screening for small-for-gestational age (SGA) using third-trimester antenatal ultrasound, there are concerns about the low detection rates and potential harm caused by both false-negative false-positive results. Using a selective ultrasound program, this study aimed to investigate incidence of adverse perinatal outcomes among cases with (i) compared true-positive SGA diagnosis (ii) true-negative diagnosis.
In surgical education research, enrolment of a sufficient number surgeons is vital for the successful implementation projects. The Royal Australasian College Surgeons (RACS) conducting multicentre project investigating efficacy and feasibility simulated laparoscopic skills course—titled Laparoscopic Simulation Skills Program (LSSP). primary target population recruitment to LSSP are trainees junior doctors, yet their participation has been low compared other eligible groups. It reported that...
