Ingham Regional MC Caseload and Management of Patients At least with the attendings I was assigned to, there was usually a time crunch that was not condusive to them really going through the medicine topics behind the surgeries they did with me. I would try to find out the diagnosis and look stuff up a little on my own, but time was short. Expectations/Learning Objectives Outside of the morning minute didactic lecture during morning report, there was not very much didactic interaction at all. Resources Ingham needs to review its new policy on after hours library use. When arriving at the hospital at am, it is difficult to not have access to the library. It is a shame if some students messed this up for the entire hospital. Considering the IRMC library is only open 9- M-F, no, resources were not available at convenient times. Osteopathic Principles and Practice The time necessary for OMT in a same-day-surgery unit was an unrealistic expectation. Supervision/Feedback For this rotation the resident I worked with was not very good at communicating what I should do, what was expected, or all that helpful with answering questions. Professionalism Dr. Fredline is a fatastic teacher, and role model. Procedures I was kept very busy with the physicians and same day saurgery porcedures. There were no cases I was involved with where the patient needed a Foley and no obvious times for me to find patients to do so. I know I am expected to search out these opportunities, but I felt the Foley, IV and NG tube should be taught to us rather than us trying to convince nurses to let us practice for the first time on sick patients. Trying to learn these procedures on my own was frustrating and a source of great anxiety. The fact is that at Ingham, it is Anesthesiology that does the NG tubes and the IVs. It was difficult to find opportunities to do these since the students and residents on those rotations also needed to learn and I did not want to take away from their opportunities considering they are actually supposed to learn that on their rotation. I think this needs to be reevaluated. Also, at Ingham, almost everyone uses one-handed ties and the surgeons want the students to use this technique. Therefore, it was very difficult to get in the two-handed and instrument ties needed for the checklist on angel. A lot of things I was only able to perform once or twice and would definitely need more practice to get more confidence. I am able to administer local anesthetic. Eval Data from: 7//0 to: // Page March 9,
The content of the online materials in the Angel course for Surgery reviewed the procedures I needed to be successful on my surgery rotation. Yes, to some degree. But I feel that it was inadequate. Yes, this information was very helpful. true Not really. They were helpful. Agree Yes. A thorough review of the procedures needed for this rotation is necessary during the campus orientation. YES. I think opportunities to do NG tubes or IVs, things that are "necessary" for multiple rotations but have few opportunities should be reviewed. A review of the basics: surgical hand scrub, inserting IVs, Foleys, and NG tubes would be very helpful. No true Its not really useful unless you start surgery the next day. Tying sutures and scrub technique was forgotten by the time I started surgery. Yes. If this is based on the checklist that we needed to complete during the rotation, then. Honestly before this rotation I had no idea how to insert a Foley or a peripheral IV, or even how to prep and drape a field. It would be better served to have the first morning of surgery include a mini orientation than one day multiple months beforehand. Agree NA. I feel that the hospital orientation covered what I needed to know to be successful in this rotation. Not especially... but then the orientation was about the hospital overall, not just this rotation. Yes, I think the scrub clinic if very important especially. true I disagree. The residents really were very helpful in orienting me to the hospital. Not really. Eval Data from: 7//0 to: // Page March 9,
Really the only thing they covered regarding the surgery rotation was how to scrub in. A lot of the tips and tricks that I learned to be successful in this rotation were from colleagues who had the rotation before me, and I learned from their/my mistakes. My hospital orientation was months prior to this rotation. Agree NA. Overall Assessment I learned a lot about procedures and OR "etiquette" and that sort of thing. I did not learn much at all about the medicine behind surgery cases or how to manage patients. My attendings and resident just sort of did things while I stood there rather than try to teach me as they went. We always were rushing to get stuff done, so I didn't feel comfortable or encouraged to ask many questions. This was a very stressful rotation because some attendings were very negative and critical in the OR. Overall Summary - Please complete the following sentences. The most beneficial experiences, classes, assignments, or activities in all my on-campus MSU/COM courses/experiences, which facilitated my performance on this clerkship rotation, were: Anatomy lab. Suture clinic- although I wish there were more. Not the one during respiratory, but the one from the surgery club where we actually got to take the practice yarn and stuff home. Systems courses Suture clinic Anatomy gi, anatomy Suture clinic and ob/gyn rotation helped with being in the OR Suture clinic The residents and attendings provided a professional and educational environment in which students can learn. Acids and bases, anatomy, GI The video on angel about scrubbing was helpful Anatomy class was most helpful. This rotation could have been improved by: Suture clinic earlier. Guided learning for procedures that could potentially harm a patient. A re-evaluation of the necessary tasks performed by MSUCOM. Using part of the hospital orientation toreviewthe procedures we are expected to perform on this service setting it up so that the student could rotate to a different attending/resident each week. I felt like I was trapped on a service that did only abdominal/bariatric surgeries and missed out on a lot of other types of general surgery procedures. Also, some attendings/residents are naturally better about teaching so that it would have been a benefit to my learning to have some time with them as well. Allowing students to perform more procedures Eval Data from: 7//0 to: // Page March 9,
More OR time More OR time. More responsibility. More educational/teaching time. I honestly felt as if I learned nothing on this rotation. Working with Dr. Ko was very beneficial, however it would be nice if the attendings had been more open to taking a few minutes to teach rather than expect students to be 00% knowledgeable about a subject. Some attendings being more respectful of all personnel in the OR. none. The thing(s) I like most about this rotation was (were): Pre and post op care of the patients. Getting a first hand view of the anatomy and pathology. The residents were great. They wanted me to learn and they were always ready to answer questions I had. The attendings and residents were very good teachers, excited about medicine, and were extremely supportive and encouraging. being in the OR and watching surgery and being involved in ways that are consistent with what i've been taught. Good instructors, hands on learning the residents were a strong, connected group. OR time, breast cancer clinic, breast tumor board Getting a live look at human anatomy. The residents are hardworking and are really very fun. The easy-going nature of Dr. Deppen and the residents I was with. It's a high-pressure environment, but I don't think that pressure needs to get transferred to the student - so I think a good job was done in making me feel at ease and comfortable with whatever I was asked to do. Working with Dr. Ko. Scrubbing in and participating in many interesting surgeries. The resident was excellent, very knowledgeable and encouraging. He took time to explain things and talk about cases. The level of hands on time the student gets. The surgical staff was very accommodating to students and were willing to help my education. Eval Data from: 7//0 to: // Page March 9,
