Mentorship is a key aspect of medical education, but the availability and quality of mentorship varies considerably between institutions. The lack of standardization results in information asymmetry and creates notable inequities. This disparity is particularly important for students interested in pursuing competitive specialties, such as orthopaedic surgery. The purpose of this study was to (1) demonstrate the importance of mentorship in orthopaedics, (2) provide a framework for orthopaedic surgeon mentors, and (3) guide medical students interested in activating and expanding their networks.
指导是医学教育的一个关键方面，但指导的可用性和质量在不同机构之间有很大差异。缺乏标准化导致信息不对称，并造成显著的不平等。对于有志于从事竞争激烈专业的学生来说，这种差异尤其重要，例如矫形外科。本研究的目的是：（1）展示指导在矫形外科中的重要性；（2）为矫形外科医生导师提供一个框架；（3）指导有志于激活和扩大网络的医学生。
