“…The empirical evidence still implies that such instructional methods can enhance surgical learning. Hancock et al, Chon et al, Kinio et al and Amer et al, all showed that gaming improved surgical knowledge [ 40 , 42 , 54 , 61 ]. Zundel et al found that peers are an extremely important source of instruction for training surgeons and that they both acquire knowledge and learn technical skills every day from each other [ 44 ].…”

Objective To map the landscape of contemporary surgical education through a competence framework by conducting a systematic literature review on learning outcomes of surgical education and the instructional methods applied to attain the outcomes. Background Surgical education has seen a paradigm shift towards competence-based training. However, a gap remains in the literature regarding the specific components of competency taught and the instructional methods employed to achieve these outcomes. This paper aims to bridge this gap by conducting a systematic review on the learning outcomes of surgical education within a competence framework and the instructional methods applied. The primary outcome measure was to elucidate the components of competency emphasized by modern surgical curricula. The secondary outcome measure was to discern the instructional methods proven effective in achieving these competencies. Methods A search was conducted across PubMed, Medline, ProQuest Eric, and Cochrane databases, adhering to PRISMA guidelines, limited to 2017–2021. Keywords included terms related to surgical education and training. Inclusion criteria mandated original empirical studies that described learning outcomes and methods, and targeted both medical students and surgical residents. Results Out of 42 studies involving 2097 participants, most concentrated on technical skills within competency-based training, with a lesser emphasis on non-technical competencies. The effect on clinical outcomes was infrequently explored. Conclusion The shift towards competency in surgical training is evident. However, further studies on its ramifications on clinical outcomes are needed. The transition from technical to clinical competence and the creation of validated assessments are crucial for establishing a foundation for lifelong surgical learning.

Introduction: “Traditional teaching” models often fail to engage millennial residents. Multiple modern didactic methods have been employed. The most frequently used objective measure to assess the effectiveness of didactic formats has been American Board of Surgery In-Training Examination performance. Methods: A literature search was conducted searching PubMed, EMBASE, and JAMA Network from June 2011 to June 2021, in accordance with the PRISMA guidelines. Searches were performed for the terms “ABSITE” and “American Board of Surgery In-Training Examination.” Only studies discussing didactic structures were included. Results: A final 16 studies were included. Modern methods such as a “flipped classroom,” Team Based Learning (TBL), and “gamification” have all shown increased engagement and significantly improved ABSITE performance. Structured biostatistics reviews may be used to supplement research and statistics which are often missed by other resources. Discussion: Programs have a duty to promote excellent resident education. In addition to fostering individual study habits, didactics and program structures should be optimized for resident development. As opposed to focusing on the pure amount of scheduled protected time, programs may instead consider focusing on the quality of the didactic format used and modern didactic methods may be beneficial.

“…For instance, the implementation of a weekly surgical game-show-style quiz program during general surgery education conferences was correlated with improved test scores. 10 The Emory University Department of Orthopaedics reported on a 2-team system in which a group of remotely working residents participated in daily faculty-directed videoconferences, didactics, and quality improvement projects. 11 At Harvard University, the program prepared physical models and delivered practice equipment to the homes of trainees as part of their intern-year surgical skills training.…”

The Effects of COVID-19 on Orthopaedic Surgery Training Programs in the United States

et al. 2023

Introduction: This study investigates the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on medical education, research opportunities, and mental health in orthopaedic surgical training programs. Methods: A survey was sent to the 177 Electronic Residency Application Service–participating orthopaedic surgery training programs. The survey contained 26 questions covering demographics, examinations, research, academic activities, work settings, mental health, and educational communication. Participants were asked to assess their difficulty in performing activities relative to COVID-19. Results: One hundred twenty-two responses were used for data analysis. Difficulties were experienced in collaborating with others (49%), learning through online web platforms (49%), maintaining the attention span of others through online web platforms (75%), and in gaining knowledge as a presenter or participating through online web platforms (56%). Eighty percent reported that managing time to study was the same or easier. There was no reported change in difficulty for performing activities in the clinic, emergency department, or operating room. Most respondents reported greater difficulty in socializing with others (74%), participating in social activities with coresidents (82%), and seeing their family (66%). Coronavirus disease 2019 has had a significant effect on the socialization of orthopaedic surgery trainees. Discussion: Clinical exposure and engagement were marginally affected for most respondents, whereas academic and research activities were more greatly affected by the transition from in-person to online web platforms. These conclusions merit investigation of support systems for trainees and evaluating best practices moving forward.
