Abstract:
Orthopaedic surgery is one of the more competitive specialties for medical students to pursue. Students often complete subinternship rotations to demonstrate skill, work ethic, and fit within a program. Away rotations were suspended during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Methods:
This investigation compared home and regional match rates before the pandemic to the match cycle of 2020-2021.
Results:
There was a statistically significant increase in students matching to their home program, and insignificant increase in regional matches.
Conclusions:
This increase is likely due in part to the familiarity of students to programs where they could still rotate during the pandemic.
Level Of Evidence:
Level IV.
