Surgical training rotation design: effects of hospital type, rotation theme and duration.


ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Entrants into UK surgical specialty training undertake a 2-year programme of core surgical training, rotating through specialties for varying lengths of time, at different hospitals, to gain breadth of experience. This study aimed to assess whether these variables influenced core surgical trainee (CST) work productivity. METHODS:Intercollegiate Surgical Curriculum Programme portfolios of consecutive CSTs between 2016 and 2019 were examined. Primary outcome measures were workplace-based assessment (WBA) completion, operative experience and academic outputs (presentations to learned societies, publications and audits). RESULTS:A total of 344 rotations by 111 CSTs were included. Incremental increases in attainment were observed related to the duration of core surgical training rotation. The median number of consultant-validated WBAs completed during core surgical training were 48 (range 0-189), 54 (10-120) and 75 (6-94) during rotations consisting of 4-, 6- and 12-month posts respectively (P?
