Despite widespread resident interest in global health and underserved care, few otolaryngology residency programs offer a formal global health experience. This article is the first to characterize a formal otolaryngology global health and underserved care track with a focus on how this curriculum integrates with and supplements resident education. Components of the track include longitudinal limited-resource field experiences in domestic and abroad settings, a related quality improvement project, and completion of a formalized global health educational curriculum. In addition to delivering humanitarian aid, residents in this track obtain a unique educational experience in all 6 core competencies of the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education. Early barriers to implementation included identifying mentorship, securing funding, and managing busy resident schedules. In this work, we detail track components, schedule by track year, keys to implementation, and potential educational pitfalls.
尽管住院医师对全球健康和医疗服务不足领域普遍感兴趣,但很少有耳鼻喉科住院医师培训项目提供正式的全球健康体验。本文首次描述了一个正式的耳鼻喉科全球健康和医疗服务不足领域培训方向,重点关注该课程如何与住院医师教育相结合并对其进行补充。该培训方向的组成部分包括在国内外环境中进行的纵向有限资源实地体验、一个相关的质量改进项目,以及完成一个正式的全球健康教育课程。除了提供人道主义援助外,该培训方向的住院医师还在毕业后医学教育认证委员会的所有6项核心能力方面获得独特的教育体验。实施初期的障碍包括确定导师、获得资金以及安排忙碌的住院医师日程。在这项工作中,我们详细介绍了培训方向的组成部分、按培训年份的时间表、实施要点以及潜在的教育陷阱。
