Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Surgical Competency Assessment

Background:

  • Growing demand for formal competency assessments in practicing physicians and surgeons.
  • Need for a structured framework for competency-based continuing professional development (CBCPD).

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore surgeon perspectives on competency-based continuing professional development (CBCPD).
  • To inform the development of effective CBCPD strategies by understanding surgeon concerns and recommendations.

Main Methods:

  • An email questionnaire was distributed to gather initial data on CBCPD.
  • Semi-structured interviews were conducted with surgeons to delve deeper into implementation challenges and benefits.

Main Results:

  • 58 surgeons responded to the questionnaire (42% response rate).
  • Moderate support exists for assessing technical skills (50.9%) and decision-making (56.6%).
  • Strong consensus (83.0%) for a mechanism to identify surgeons needing focused competence assessment.
  • Interviews revealed benefits and challenges, emphasizing the need for fair, data-driven assessments considering patient outcomes.

Conclusions:

  • Surgeon input is crucial for developing an effective CBCPD strategy.
  • Addressing surgeon concerns can lead to greater acceptance and adoption of CBCPD.
  • Successful CBCPD implementation can enhance surgical safety and performance.
