Course Value

With the advent of Modernising Medical Careers (MMC) in 2007 neurosurgery adopted 'run-through' training, whereby trainees apply to a neurosurgical rotation that takes them through from foundation training to its completion and the award of the Certificate of Completion of Training (CCT). This is in contrast to the post-MMC training programmes for the rest of the surgical specialties, in which trainees apply to a core surgical training (CST) rotation, followed by open competition after their second core training (CT2) year for appointment into a specialty training (ST) rotation in the surgical specialty of their choice.

Abstract Aims Core Surgical Training (CST) and Improving ST (IST) programmes are in flux and their design controversial. This study aimed to evaluate the relative performance of a single Statutory Education Board’s (SEB) CST and IST programmes related to rotation design, theme, and protocol engagement. Methods Individual rotations numbering 181 were analysed prospectively over six-years (2014 to 2020). Primary outcome measures were MRCS pass and specialty National Training Number (NTN) appointment. Results Overall MRCS pass was 68.5% and NTN appointment 39.2%. NTN appointment related to rotation design varied from zero to 100% (median 40.0%). Conversion to NTN varied by specialty theme and ranged from: General surgery CST 35.6% to General surgery (IST pilot) 87.5% (p = 0.004). Multivariable analysis revealed NTN appointment was associated with: operative logbook caseload >464 (OR 3.02, p = 0.068), scientific article publication (OR 4.82, p = 0.006), and universal ARCP Outcome 1 (OR 37.83, p < 0.001), and IST (OR 55.54, p = 0.006). Conclusions Focused rotational design allied to enhanced performance management, and protocol engagement, were associated with improved conversion to higher surgical specialty training.

Administrative Problem

Three fourths of chief residents in general surgery receive further specialty training. The end to start-of-year transition can create administrative conflicts between the residency and the specialty training program. An Internet-based questionnaire surveyed general surgery and surgical specialty program directors to define issues and possible solutions associated with end to start-of-year transitions using a Likert scale. There was an overall response rate of 17.5 per cent, 19.6 per cent among general surgery directors, and 15.8 per cent among specialty directors. Program directors in general surgery felt strongly that the transition is an administrative problem ( P < 0.001). They opposed extra days off at the end of the chief resident year or ending in mid-June, which specialty directors favored ( P < 0.001). Directors of specialty programs opposed starting the year 1 or 2 weeks after July 1, a solution that general surgery directors favored ( P < 0.001). More agreement was reached on whether chief residents should take vacation week(s) at the end of the academic year, having all general surgery levels start in mid-June, and orientation programs in July for specialty trainees. Program directors acknowledge that year-end scheduling transitions create administrative and patient care problems. Advancing the start of the training year in mid-June for all general surgery levels is a potential solution.
