Standardized training of orthopedics residents in China and the United States: experience from the University of Maryland Shock Trauma / 中华医学教育探索杂志

ABSTRACT

By analyzing the training of resident doctors in the University of Maryland Shock Trauma, this paper compared the similarities and differences of standardized resident training between China and the United States in policy, training base, selection of teaching teachers, selection of training objects, assessment methods and financial subsidies to the students. It can be concluded that standardized resident training of orthopedics in the United States is more purposeful and systematic and pays more attention to the connection between knowledge and clinical practice, skills and operation, and the cultivation of the ability to deal with patients independently. The training of orthopedics residents in the United States began earlier and had more experience than China, which can be an example for the standardized training of orthopedics residents in China.
