SummaryWithin the field of global surgery, partnerships between low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) and high-income countries (HICs) are often used to improve surgical capacity and enhance surgical training. Similarly, medical rounds are common in postgraduate medical training, although joint rounds between LMICs and HICs have not been widely used. Over 1 year, 6 online joint education rounds were held for general surgery residents at the University of British Columbia and the University of Guyana. Rounds comprised resident-led case-based presentations on a surgical subspecialty topic. These rounds were evaluated by residents through an online survey and were found to be valuable and relevant to their training, with mutual and differential benefits to Canadian and Guyanese residents. This project demonstrated that joint rounds are a meaningful method to partner surgical residency programs and can provide another tool for implementation of global surgery.
摘要
在全球外科领域，低收入和中等收入国家（LMICs）与高收入国家（HICs）之间的伙伴关系常用于提高外科手术能力和加强外科培训。同样，医学查房在研究生医学培训中很常见，尽管LMICs和HICs之间的联合查房尚未得到广泛应用。在一年多的时间里，不列颠哥伦比亚大学和圭亚那大学为普通外科住院医师举办了6次在线联合教育查房。查房内容包括住院医师主导的关于外科亚专业主题的病例报告。这些查房通过在线调查由住院医师进行评估，结果发现它们对住院医师的培训很有价值且相关，对加拿大和圭亚那的住院医师都有共同的和不同的益处。该项目表明，联合查房是外科住院医师培训项目建立伙伴关系的一种有意义的方法，并且可以为全球外科手术的实施提供另一种工具。
