The surgical clinical training measurement: developing and evaluating the quality of surgical clinical training among Syrian surgical residents.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Evaluation tools for training programs vary, necessitating a standardized tool for assessing surgical clinical training quality to enhance program effectiveness, pinpoint improvement areas, and ensure resident readiness for independent practice. We present a new tool designed to provide a reliable and consistent framework for evaluating the effectiveness of surgical clinical training.

Methods

The Surgical Clinical Training Measurement (SCTM) was developed using the modified Delphi method to evaluate ten variables, including core competencies specific to surgical training. It employs a 5-point Likert scale, with scores ranging from 40 to 200. General surgery residents completed the SCTM twice to evaluate training levels. Results were categorized based on score rang
