“…This reaffirms the importance of maximizing operative exposure among junior residents in order to offset frustration associated with the burden of nonoperative activities. 38,39 Tillou and coworkers 39 examined a protected educational rotation for 30 surgery interns involving 4 weeks in an outpatient surgery center under direct faculty supervision; trainees rated this rotation significantly better than the average of other rotations (p < 0.01), as well as the teaching by faculty, time spent in the operating room, and quality of operating room time (all p < 0.05). The attrition group more often believed that their operating skill was not level appropriate and that they were overwhelmed by job responsibilities.…”

“…These gaps in the proficiency of interns in performing basic bedside procedures, which we detected in our study, are consistent with the results of other studies [ 21 , 22 ]. This could be caused by inadequate training in medical schools, a lack of opportunities to conduct these procedures, and subpar supervision during internship rotations [ 23 ]. Good supervisors, efficient supervision, adequate experiential learning opportunities, a supportive environment, a strong support system (including hospital staff, management, and academic opportunities), personal traits, and a manageable workload are all factors that provide good internship training [ 24 ].…”
