Podcasts about surgical education

In 2002 a group of surgeons got together and radically changed surgical training forever. They just got together again... They call themselves the Blue Ribbon Committee. When they met in 2002 they addressed critical issues such as residency structure, specialization, work-life balance, and simulation-based training. Now, with rapid advancements in medicine and education, BRC II has revisited these topics and introduced new priorities to ensure that surgical education meets the demands of the modern era. In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Steven Stain, co-chair of BRC II and a leader in surgical education. Dr. Stain shares insights into the motivations behind the second committee, its key findings, and how competency-based education, entrustable professional activities (EPAs), and other innovations are shaping the future of surgical training. Join hosts Pooja Varman MD, Judith French PhD, and Jeremy Lipman MD, MHPE for an engaging discussion on what surgical educators, trainees, and institutions need to know about the new recommendations from BRC II and the future of surgical education. Learning Objectives By the end of this episode, listeners will be able to  1.     Under the origins and impact of the first Blue Ribbon Committee (BRC I) 2.     Explain the factors that led to the formation of the BRC II and its major recommendations 3.     Identify challenges and opportunities in modern surgical education 4.     Discuss the role of competency-based education and EPAs in training future surgeons 5.     Recognize how institutions and educators can adapt to BRC II recommendations References 1.     Recommendations on Surgical Education and Training in the United States: 2024.

As we move towards a model of Competency-Based Surgical Education, individualization of training may be needed. How can we get the right education to the right trainee at the right time? How can we link education to actual patient outcomes? Precision education aims to do just that, while leveraging technology, data, and analytics to decrease burden on assessors. While this approach offers a lot of promise to advance surgical education, it can be difficult to conceptualize how this would be implemented in practice. We're joined by an expert in the field of precision medical education, Dr. Jesse Burk-Rafel, to break down what precision education is and how it might integrate into our current system of surgical education Join hosts Nicole Brooks MD, Judith French PhD, and Jeremy Lipman MD, MHPE for this exciting conversation with Jesse Burk-Rafel MD. Learning Objectives 1.     Listeners will define precision education. 2.     Listeners will describe examples of how precision medical or surgical education is being used currently.  3.     Listeners will explain barriers that must be addressed with the implementation of precision surgical education, including bias and issues with data sharing.  4.     Listeners will consider how precision surgical education will evolve, including possible use within their own institution to completement competency-based surgical education.

Imagine a world where a specialist surgeon on one continent could be virtually transported into any operating room of another surgeon specialist, anywhere in the world, to collaborate with one another visually and practically. That is now a reality with the Proximie system, an augmented reality telehealth platform and innovation in education and global surgery. Dr. Nadine Hachach-Haram if the Founder of Proximie. She shares the story of her childhood and the events that made a lasting imprint on her memory growing up in Lebanon. She learned a lot about community, people coming together and sharing and supporting each other. Seeing the resulting injuries of war and the effects it had on friends who experienced injuries led her to understand the importance and role of doctors. Her family had a profound influence on her trajectory into medicine, innovation and narrowing the gap in access to care. This became of great interest to Nadine as her own career in plastic surgery progressed. We discuss the collection of knowledge in the library database of the Proximie system and the ongoing value it has in surgical education and learning. I mention to Nadine the honor I had speaking to Dr. Joe Dusseldorp and Dr. Minas Chrysopoulo about their Proximie experience during a DIEP flap procedure. It was seamless connectivity for these two surgeons and delightful to share their experience using Proximie across continents. At the heart of this it is patients for access and quality of care. Nadine has accomplished this by reimagining the future of healthcare through the Proximie system. Our thoughts conclude the podcast sharing the importance of leaving a legacy of your work and what inspired me to invite Nadine to be interviewed on the DiepCJourney podcast. I am grateful!

How did having to read a Stephan Hawking book to impress a peer lead to the best educational videos out there on surgical training? Listen to how EduCast, the new orthopedic video educational program got its start from very humble beginnings with the developer, orthopedic surgeon Amit Atrey, MD, from the University of Toronto. Educast.org is a new, free service re-imagining how we teach surgeons about orthopedic surgery and beyond.

The landscape of surgery is shifting, reflecting the diverse composition of graduating medical students and the efforts to recruit the most talented people into the field.  It is one thing to have a diverse group of people within surgery, but it is an entirely different thing to ensure a welcoming, supportive environment for them.  In this Journal Club episode, we review these topics from the perspective of eminent surgeons Drs. Caprice and Jake Greenberg, who share with us their insights on recent articles examining the experience of women surgeons and trainees.  We're joined by Dr. Cary Schlick, who authored one of these articles, to shed light on a key issue for the field.  Learning Objectives: ·       Identify some of the challenges for women in surgical training programs ·       Discuss how stereotype threat can impact performance ·       Suggest ways to advocate for equity in surgery References: Experiences of Gender Discrimination and Sexual Harassment Among Residents in General Surgery Programs Across the US - https://doi.org/10.1001/jamasurg.2021.3195 Effects of Gender Bias and Stereotypes in Surgical Training: A Randomized Clinical Trial - https://doi.org/10.1001/jamasurg.2020.1127 Gender Bias and Stereotypes in Surgical Training: Is It Really Women Residents We Need to Worry About? - https://doi.org/10.1001/jamasurg.2020.1561 The effect of gender on operative autonomy in general surgery residents - https://doi.org/10.1016/j.surg.2019.06.006 Please visit behindtheknife.org to access other high-yield surgical education podcasts, videos and more.  

The latest podcast episode features Dr. Jonathan Dort, the Director of Surgical Education for the Inova Health System and Program Director of the Surgical Residency for the Department of Surgery at the Inova Fairfax Medical Campus. “I never understood how surgeons had egos, because it is the most continuously humbling business I can imagine being in…” Dr. Dort left private practice to join an academic program. As program director, he has seen residency education change significantly over the years with increasing regulations and requirements. Residents are changing, too, and learning in different ways. Gone are the days of “go read a textbook.” Residents are learning from online sources, SCORE, podcast for example. He had great advice for those interested in applying for residency: - There is no magic formula for getting into residency - Do the activities you are passionate about - Be yourself on the application. He is looking for the real you. You will be appreciated by the program you are the best fit for, and that is a path that is sustainable -When the blood is welling in the OR, the name on your certificate is not going to bail you out Tips for succeeding as a resident: - “Your attitude more than your aptitude will determine your altitude” - Wake up and decide what kind of day you are going to have - Reminding yourself, “This is hard, I will learn from my mistakes, I am going to make mistakes, I am going to use the support from the people around me, and I am going to support the people around me, and those are the people succeed. It is a team approach” -Burnout is not caused by hard work, it is caused by futility If you are interested in becoming a program director: - You have to love to teach and mentor - The relationships you form with the mentorship last a lifetime - You have to see three steps ahead- considering new technology (like robotics), conscious of the needed rotations - There is gratification from taking a resident from “unconsciously incompetent to consciously incompetent, to consciously competent, then unconsciously competent.”
