The COVID-19 pandemic has tremendously changed private and professional interactions and behaviors worldwide. The effects of this pandemic and the actions taken have changed our healthcare systems, which consequently has affected medical education and surgical training. In the face of constant disruptions of surgical education and training during this pandemic outbreak, structured and innovative concepts and adapted educational curricula are important to ensure a high quality of medical treatment. While efforts were undertaken to prevent viral spreading, it is important to analyze and assess the effects of this crisis on medical education, surgical training and teaching at large and certainly in the field of surgical oncology. Against this background, in this paper we introduce practical and creative recommendations for the continuity of students' and residents' medical and surgical training and teaching. This includes virtual educational curricula, skills development classes, video-based feedback and simulation in the specialty field of surgical oncology. In conclusion, the effects of COVID 19 on Surgical Training and Teaching, certainly in the field of Surgical Oncology, are challenging.
新冠疫情极大地改变了全球范围内的个人和职业互动与行为。这场疫情及其所采取的行动已经改变了我们的医疗体系,进而影响了医学教育和外科培训。在此次疫情爆发期间,面对外科教育和培训不断受到的干扰,结构化且创新的理念以及经过调整的教育课程对于确保高质量医疗至关重要。在努力预防病毒传播的同时,分析和评估这场危机对医学教育、外科培训以及整个教学领域,尤其是外科肿瘤学领域的影响也很重要。在此背景下,本文针对学生和住院医师的医学与外科培训及教学的连续性提出实用且有创造性的建议。这包括虚拟教育课程、技能发展课程、基于视频的反馈以及外科肿瘤学专业领域的模拟。总之,新冠疫情对外科培训和教学,尤其是外科肿瘤学领域的影响具有挑战性。
