Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Surgical Simulation
  • Orthopedic Surgery Training

Background:

  • Simulation-based training is increasingly vital in medical education.
  • The Orthopedic Surgery Interest Group (OSIG) at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine developed the "Sawbones" workshop.
  • This pilot study evaluates student perceptions of the workshop for potential longitudinal implementation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess medical students' perceptions of the "Sawbones" orthopedic surgery benchtop training workshop.
  • To investigate the workshop's impact on student interest in orthopedic surgery.
  • To evaluate the workshop as a potential component of a longitudinal medical education intervention.

Main Methods:

  • 30 medical students with an interest in orthopedics were invited.
  • Participants received a lecture on screw fixation followed by hands-on fracture repair on synthetic models.
  • An anonymous survey assessed student satisfaction and workshop impact.

Main Results:

  • 73% of invited students (n=22) responded to the survey.
  • 100% of respondents desired more hands-on orthopedic experiences.
  • 86.4% reported increased interest in orthopedic surgery careers; 95.5% would recommend the training.

Conclusions:

  • The "Sawbones" workshop shows promise in engaging students and introducing orthopedic skills.
  • Longitudinal implementation could enhance mentorship and residency preparation.
  • This program is recommended to address limited orthopedic exposure in medical school.
