| مستخلص: |
The senior year of undergraduate medical education has been scrutinized for lacking emphasis from educators and value for students. Surgical residency program directors and medical students have reported different sets of perceived weaknesses as surgical trainees enter residency. With this in mind, we developed a novel rotation for senior medical students pursuing surgical residency. The rotation incorporates practical didactics, robust skill and simulation training, and an enriching anatomy experience that entails dissections and operations on embalmed and fresh tissue cadavers. To our knowledge, this is the first reported formal training experience for medical students that involves working with fresh tissue cadavers, which have been described as effective models for live human tissue in the operating room. We describe our multifaceted curriculum in detail, discuss its organization, and elaborate on its potential value. We also provide detailed explanations of the curriculum components so that other surgical educators may consider adopting them. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
