Orthopedic resident training involves not only the hands-on learning of surgery but also should equally involve instructing the core knowledge of musculoskeletal medicine. Our program has developed a strategy that enhances resident educational performance; the educational curriculum entails conferences daily. Conferences include gross and surgical anatomy, orthopedic basic science, multidisciplinary trauma, radiology, pathology, journal club, and orthopedic subspecialty conferences. The primary purpose of the conference schedule is to provide the residents with a comprehensive education in orthopedic surgery. It is not geared toward taking the Orthopaedic In-Training Examination (OITE). The OITE is administered annually by the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS) and serves as an objective measure of knowledge acquisition. There has been a scientifically validated correlation between performance on the OITE and passage of the American Board for Orthopaedic Surgery Part I Examination. As a collective program, we have achieved at or above the 98th percentile nationally from 2004 to 2009. This academic success has not impacted the total surgical case volume negatively or interfered with Residency Review Committee (RRC) policies.
骨科住院医师培训不仅涉及手术的实践学习，还应同样包括指导肌肉骨骼医学的核心知识。我们的计划制定了一项增强住院医师教育表现的策略；教育课程包括每天的会议。会议包括大体解剖和手术解剖、骨科基础科学、多学科创伤、放射学、病理学、期刊俱乐部和骨科亚专业会议。会议安排的主要目的是为住院医师提供全面的骨科手术教育。它不是为了参加骨科住院医师培训考试（OITE）。OITE 由美国骨科医师学会（AAOS）每年管理，是知识获取的客观衡量标准。OITE 的表现与美国骨科委员会第 I 部分考试的通过之间存在经过科学验证的相关性。作为一个集体项目，我们在 2004 年至 2009 年期间在全国范围内达到或超过了 98%的百分位数。这种学术上的成功并没有对总手术量产生负面影响，也没有干扰住院医师审查委员会（RRC）的政策。
