The operating room (OR) is a complex environment for medical students. Little is known about the OR staff's perception of medical students.
We utilized an embedded mixed methods design to characterize surgical staff perceptions of students at an academic institution. We surveyed 408 OR nursing/technician staff with 16 follow-up interviews.
139 respondents. 91.3% reported having daily-to-weekly interactions with medical students. Yet, only 37.9% agreed that "patient care is better when medical students are part of the team." 25.2% felt confident that they knew what a student's education entails outside the OR. 93.5% agreed that interprofessional training between physicians and OR staff should be included in educational programs. 54% agreed that their responsibilities include medical student training in the OR setting.
Despite an overall desire for teamwork, this study highlights a lack of knowledge of each others' roles. To improve OR culture and team dynamics, concerted efforts need to be made around interprofessional training.
手术室（OR）是医学生学习的复杂环境。对于手术室工作人员对医学生的看法知之甚少。
我们采用嵌入式混合方法设计，对学术机构手术室工作人员对学生的看法进行了描述。我们对 408 名手术室护理/技术人员进行了调查，并进行了 16 次随访访谈。
139 名受访者。91.3%的人报告说每天到每周都与医学生互动。然而，只有 37.9%的人同意“当医学生成为团队的一部分时，患者护理会更好”。25.2%的人对自己在手术室之外了解学生的教育内容有信心。93.5%的人同意医生和手术室工作人员之间的跨专业培训应该纳入教育项目。54%的人同意他们的职责包括在手术室环境中培训医学生。
尽管总体上希望团队合作，但这项研究强调了对彼此角色缺乏了解。为了改善手术室文化和团队动态，需要围绕跨专业培训做出协调一致的努力。
