This study assesses the outcomes of nondesignated preliminary (NDP) residents in general surgery (GS) at an independent, nonuniversity training program.
Records of all NDP residents from 1984-1985 through 2008-2009 were reviewed, and residents' careers were followed. Designated preliminary and categorical residents were excluded.
Sixty-two residents completed the NDP year. Three of these residents also completed a second postgraduate NDP year. A total of 60 NDPs (97%) continued in accredited postgraduate programs. Forty-eight graduates (77%) pursued surgery-associated careers: 26 (42%) in GS and 22 (35%) in other surgery-related specialties. Eleven of the 26 NDPs who entered GS (42%) became categorical residents in our program. All NDP GS graduates are board certified, board eligible, or are residents in training.
After a preliminary year in GS, NDPs continued in postgraduate medical education followed by board certification, usually in GS or surgery-related specialties. NDPs often obtain categorical positions in the parent GS program.
本研究评估了一个独立的、非大学培训项目中普外科(GS)非指定初步(NDP)住院医师的结局。
回顾了 1984-1985 年至 2008-2009 年期间所有 NDP 住院医师的记录,并跟踪了住院医师的职业生涯。排除了指定初步和分类住院医师。
62 名住院医师完成了 NDP 年。其中 3 名住院医师还完成了第二个研究生 NDP 年。共有 60 名 NDP(97%)继续参加认可的研究生项目。48 名毕业生(77%)从事与外科相关的职业:26 名(42%)在 GS 从事外科工作,22 名(35%)在其他与外科相关的专业从事外科工作。在进入我们项目的 26 名 NDP 普外科住院医师中,有 11 名(42%)成为了分类住院医师。所有 NDP GS 毕业生均获得委员会认证、有资格认证或正在接受培训。
在 GS 进行初步培训年后,NDP 继续接受研究生医学教育,随后获得委员会认证,通常是在 GS 或与外科相关的专业。NDP 经常在母 GS 项目中获得分类职位。
