Abstract:
Student learning within the Operating Room (OR) is complex and challenging especially for the medical students who heavily rely upon structured learning plans. Presently, medical students' OR- based surgical learning experience is heterogenous, unstandardized and inadequate owing to many reasons. There is a growing need to evaluate the learning modalities and models that we currently use for medical graduates' ORbased learning process, create a balance between structured and opportunistic learning encounters and incorporate previously identified factors that have been known to positively influence the quality of OR-based learning. In continuation with our previous work on OR-based learning, here we argue for a structured ORbased learning plan that embodies appropriate learning models and teaching methodologies and focuses on a comprehensive plan that justifies a local needs analysis, and addresses factors influencing the quality of ORbased student learning to produce enhanced learning outcomes.
