BACKGROUND
Lack of exposure to surgery in the preclinical years of medical school contributes to students' negative opinions of the field and to low application rates to categorical surgical programs.
METHODS
Forty preclinical medical students attended a series of 16 seminars and practice sessions covering the gamut of surgical specialties and basic technical skills. Students were given a Likert format survey before and after taking the course.
RESULTS
Students gave high ratings to course content (4.26/5) and lecturers (4.54/5). Students' confidence in their surgical skills doubled (1.45/5 to 3/5, P < .0001), and their perceived readiness for the surgical clerkship increased by 73% (1.63/5 to 2.82/5, P = .007).
CONCLUSIONS
The preclinical years offer a promising venue for improving medical student interest and performance in surgery.
背景
医学院临床前几年缺乏外科手术接触，导致学生对该领域持负面看法，且申请分类外科项目的比例较低。
方法
40名临床前医学生参加了一系列16场研讨会和实践课程，内容涵盖了外科各专业领域和基本技术技能。学生在参加课程前后接受了李克特量表形式的调查。
结果
学生对课程内容（4.26/5）和讲师（4.54/5）给予了高度评价。学生对外科手术技能的信心翻倍（从1.45/5提高到3/5，P < .0001），他们认为自己为外科实习做好准备的程度提高了73%（从1.63/5提高到2.82/5，P = .007）。
结论
临床前几年为提高医学生对外科的兴趣和表现提供了一个有前景的途径。
