Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Surgical Training
  • Simulation-Based Learning

Background:

  • Surgical interns assume critical patient care duties with limited initial training.
  • A novel training program incorporates simulated learning environments for new surgical residents.
  • Evaluating resident feedback on simulated clinical calls and their impact on confidence is crucial.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess surgical residents' perceptions of simulated clinical calls as an educational method.
  • To quantify the impact of simulated clinical calls on residents' self-reported confidence levels.

Main Methods:

  • A team developed 15 distinct clinical scenarios for simulation.
  • Simulated nurse-to-resident clinical call sessions were conducted over three days.

Related Experiment Videos

  • Pre- and post-course surveys measured confidence, alongside daily evaluation surveys.

    • Main Results:

    • Resident confidence significantly increased from 6.73 to 8.35 post-simulation (P <0.03).
    • The average evaluation score for the course was 4.35 out of 5, indicating positive reception.

    Conclusions:

    • Simulated clinical call sessions were positively received by residents.
    • This educational modality significantly enhanced resident confidence.
    • The program's efficacy and ease of implementation suggest its value for postgraduate year-1 surgical residents.
