Remediation involves formalized support for surgical trainees with significant underperformance to return to expected standards. We have reviewed current published literature to understand the evidence for remediation of surgical trainees to inform practice and justify investment of resources. If performed in a programmatic framework, it is a complex but often successful approach to return surgical trainees to their expected standard using system and process level changes.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
