The transition from medical student to surgical intern is fraught with anxiety. We implemented a surgical intern survival skills curriculum to alleviate this through a series of lectures and interactive sessions. The purpose of this pilot study was to evaluate its effectiveness.
This was a prospective observational pilot study of our surgical intern survival skills curriculum, the components of which included professionalism, medical documentation, pharmacy highlights, radiographic interpretations, nutrition, and mock clinical pages. The participants completed pre-course and post-course surveys to assess their confidence levels in the elements addressed using a 5-point Likert scale (1 = unsatisfactory, 5 = excellent). A P value of less than .05 was considered significant.
In 2009, 8 interns participated in the surgical intern survival skills curriculum. Fifty percent were female and their mean age was 27.5 ± 1.5 years. Of 33 elements assessed, interns rated themselves as more confident in 27 upon completion of the course.
The implementation of a surgical intern survival skills curriculum significantly improved the confidence levels of general surgery interns and seemed to ease the transition from medical student to surgical intern.
从医学生到外科实习医生的转变充满了焦虑。我们实施了一项外科实习医生生存技能课程，通过一系列讲座和互动环节来缓解这种情况。本试点研究的目的是评估其效果。
这是我们外科实习医生生存技能课程的前瞻性观察性试点研究，其组成部分包括专业精神、医疗文件、药学重点、放射学解释、营养和模拟临床页面。参与者在课程前后完成调查，使用 5 分制（1 = 不满意，5 = 优秀）评估他们对所涉及元素的信心水平。P 值小于 0.05 被认为具有统计学意义。
2009 年，8 名实习医生参加了外科实习医生生存技能课程。其中 50%为女性，平均年龄为 27.5 ± 1.5 岁。在评估的 33 个要素中，实习医生在完成课程后对 27 个要素的自我评估更有信心。
外科实习医生生存技能课程的实施显著提高了普通外科实习医生的信心水平，并似乎缓解了从医学生到外科实习医生的过渡。
