Virtual education is an evolving field within the realm of surgical training.
Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the application of virtual
technologies in surgical education has undergone significant exploration and
advancement. While originally developed to supplement in-person curricula for
the development of clinical decision-making, virtual surgical education has
expanded into the real... hiện toàn bộ
Relationship between intraoperative teaching skills and surgeons’ cognitive loadSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 2 - Trang 1-9 - 2023
Egide Abahuje, Lixuan Cong, Cassandra Iroz, Julie K. Johnson, Amy Halverson
The operating room (OR) has the potential to be a high-stress environment due to
the multiple tasks that surgeons must complete. Surgeons in a training
environment must balance the tasks of teaching and operating, which may impose a
high cognitive load. It is not known how a surgeon's cognitive load is related
to intraoperative teaching. The aim of this study was to investigate the
relationship be... hiện toàn bộ
Refugee women’s health: needs, knowledge, and behaviors of female refugeesSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - - 2023
Jessica Wiens, John Gallagher, Elizabeth Lyden, Sara Cartwright, Collin Dougherty, Drissa Toure, Jessica Maxwell
Refugees entering the USA undergo initial health screening. However, little
guidance on preventative medicine is provided. We examined health knowledge and
attitudes towards recommended screening protocols for breast and cervical
cancer. Surveys developed by a panel of experts and were administered to adult
female refugees via convenience sampling. Count and percentages were used to
summarize data... hiện toàn bộ
Predicting future meaningful autonomy using prior autonomy ratings for pediatric surgery fellowsSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 2 - Trang 1-6 - 2023
Shawn Izadi, Benjamin Zendejas, Brianna L. Spencer, Rebecca Moreci, Kayla Marcotte, Brian C. George, Ronald Hirschl, Biren P. Modi, Peter F. Ehrlich, Erika A. Newman, Andrew E. Krumm
Assessment of trainees’ operative autonomy is challenging. However,
workplace-based assessment (WBA) systems have made it possible to capture
longitudinal data on trainees’ operative autonomy. We evaluated the ability of
prior WBA operative autonomy ratings to predict future autonomy ratings for
pediatric surgery fellows. WBA data from two pediatric surgery training programs
were analyzed using Ba... hiện toàn bộ
Qualitative perspectives on shared decision-making from general surgery faculty and traineesSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 1 - Trang 1-12 - 2022
Melanie Fritz, Maham Javaid, Mollie O’Brien, Suzanne Mitchell, Sabrina E. Sanchez
Despite the merits of shared decision making (SDM), it remains underused in
surgical fields. Through individual semi-structured interviews with general
surgery providers, we explored how surgeons and surgeons-in-training perceive
and engage in SDM at our academic safety-net hospital and investigated ways to
increase SDM use within our surgical department. We developed and administered
individual s... hiện toàn bộ
Balancing autonomy of thought and action in the context of patient safety: resident perspectives on intraoperative autonomySpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 1 - Trang 1-7 - 2022

The goal of surgical residency is to produce technically competent surgeons who
can safely operate autonomously. This study aimed to explore residents’
perception of intraoperative autonomy across post-graduate years (PGY). General
surgery residents at a single academic institution were invited to participate
in focus groups divided by PGY to explore their opinions on operative autonomy.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the use of a cadaveric teaching model
for needle compression of pneumothorax simulated by thoracoscopy. A standardized
didactic instruction was provided to medical personnel participants at a single
institution tertiary medical center. A thoracoscope was inserted into cadavers
and insufflated to 20 mm Hg for simulation of a tension pneumothorax. The study

Examination of the feedback orientation scale in residency selectionSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 1 - Trang 1-6 - 2022
Jennifer H. Chen, Paula Costa, Aimee K. Gardner
Giving and receiving feedback is a critical competency for residents. High
receptivity to feedback, defined as high feedback orientation, has been shown to
improve learning, motivation, and ultimately impact performance. We sought to
examine feedback orientation (FO) among general surgery residency applicants and
its potential use in screening applicants for residency recruitment. Prospective

Item analysis of general surgery multi-institutional mock oral exam: opportunities for quality improvementSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 2 - Trang 1-6 - 2023

Mock oral examinations (MOE) prepare general surgery residents for the American
Board of Surgery Certifying Exam by assessing their medical knowledge and
clinical judgement. There is no standard accepted process for quality analysis
among MOE content items. Effective questions should correlate with mastery of
MOE content, as well as exam passage. Our aim was to identify opportunities for
question ... hiện toàn bộ
