Little information exists on the value of online question banks in preparing residents for the American Board of Surgery In-Training Examination (ABSITE).
We reviewed surgical residents' use of an online question bank (TrueLearn) and compared it to their ABSITE performance.
The 2016-2017 records of 44 PGY 2-5 general surgery residents were examined. The total number of TrueLearn questions answered significantly correlated (p < 0.05) with correct answers and percentile rank on the 2017 ABSITE. If a resident was to complete the entire online TL question bank consisting of 1000 questions, the overall percentage correct and overall percentile on the ABSITE is estimated to increase by 3% and 20%, respectively.
The use of the TrueLearn question bank is associated with an improved percentage of ABSITE questions answered correctly and improved PGY percentile scores.
关于在线题库在帮助住院医师准备美国外科住院医师考试(ABSITE)方面的价值,相关信息有限。
我们回顾了外科住院医师对在线题库(TrueLearn)的使用情况,并将其与他们的 ABSITE 表现进行了比较。
我们研究了 2016-2017 年 44 名 PGY2-5 普通外科住院医师的记录。TrueLearn 回答的总题数与 2017 年 ABSITE 的正确答案和百分位排名呈显著相关(p<0.05)。如果住院医师完成由 1000 个问题组成的整个在线 TL 题库,那么 ABSITE 上的总体正确百分比和总体百分位预计将分别提高 3%和 20%。
使用 TrueLearn 题库与 ABSITE 问题回答正确百分比的提高和 PGY 百分位得分的提高相关。
