Peak performance is the ability to achieve optimal outcomes or performance of a given task in a consistent manner. Commonly studied in athletes and musicians, this topic is less often studied in medicine and rarely broached for trainees. However, residency is a crucial period of training where foundations for future success are sewn into habit and daily practice. As educators, we should aim to equip trainees with the tools necessary to achieve peak performance. Studies in athletes and musicians focus on achieving peak performance by setting goals, mastering skills through deliberate practice, perseverance, grit, and discipline. Mentorship is also an important element to streamline efforts for the trainee and help them to focus. In the following article, we review the current literature on applying these principles to surgical trainees to achieve peak performance.
巅峰表现是指在一致的方式下实现给定任务的最佳结果或表现的能力。该主题在运动员和音乐家中经常被研究，但在医学领域中研究较少，且很少为受训者提及。然而，住院医师培训是一个至关重要的培训阶段，未来成功的基础被嵌入习惯和日常实践中。作为教育者，我们应该努力为受训者提供必要的工具，以实现巅峰表现。运动员和音乐家的研究集中在通过设定目标、通过刻意练习掌握技能、坚持不懈、毅力和纪律来实现巅峰表现。指导也是使受训者的努力顺利进行并帮助他们集中精力的重要因素。在下面的文章中，我们回顾了将这些原则应用于外科受训者以实现巅峰表现的现有文献。
