SURGICAL AND PROCEDURAL CARE

SURGERY 919

Care for hospitalized patients on general surgery or surgical specialty services. Admit new patients, round on previously admitted patients, participate in multidisciplinary rounds, and work to transition patients to the next level of care. Evaluate and manage patient with both common inpatient conditions and medically complex patients requiring collaboration with consulting specialties. Direct supervision by house staff and attending physicians. Participate in regularly scheduled supervisor-student meetings, which involve some or all of the following: rounding on service patients, participating in scheduled operative procedures, presenting cases and teaching topics, and discussing patient cases. Complete independent activities including some or all of the following: reading about patient conditions and preparing for direct patient care as needed. Complete other patient care related learning activities as assigned by instructors.

MEDSC-M 812

Focus on assessing patients with urgent medical conditions, providing acute inpatient care, and transitioning patients to other care settings or home under the care of other professionals. Provide acute care in inpatient and outpatient urgent care settings as well as on the inpatient wards, and develop acute management plans and subsequent transition of care plans. Clinical experiences in acute care settings such as the emergency department and inpatient medicine (both general and subspecialty), psychiatry, and neurology. Builds upon fundamental science concepts introduced in Body in Balance and Mind and Motion, including Ohm's Law, acid-base balance, and volume regulation. Organ system-based approach employing varied modalities. Complete an integrated patient-centered experience by participating in the care of a patient from an urgent admission through inpatient treatment and discharge.

SURGERY 962

Direct supervision by General Surgery senior residents, fellows, and attending physicians. Participate in regularly scheduled supervisor-student meetings, which involve some or all of the following: rounding on service patients, participating in scheduled operative procedures, presenting cases and teaching topics, and discussing patient cases. Complete independent activities including some or all of the following: reading about patient conditions and preparing for direct patient care as needed. Attend conferences associated with the assigned general surgery service. Complete other patient care related learning activities as assigned by instructors; these are dependent on the individual student, the patients under the student's care, and the location.

SURGERY 982

Learn effective methods of teaching procedural skills and of small group case-based learning (CBL) facilitation. Demonstrate effective teaching strategies when instructing more junior medical students in in-person procedural skills (e.g., suturing, knot-tying, ultrasound/doppler, intubation) and facilitating virtual CBL learning. Bolster mastery in surgical and procedural education.

MEDSC-M 810

Develop clinical knowledge and skills necessary to care for patients in Pediatrics and Obstetrics and Gynecology, with emphasis on unique skills such as taking care of vulnerable populations as identified in women's and child health and working with caregivers in addition to the patient themselves. Increase knowledge of fundamental science concepts introduced in Human Family Tree during Phase 1 of the curriculum, such as embryology and teratology, genetic testing, and neurodevelopment. Clinical experiences will occur in a range of representative inpatient, outpatient and surgical settings. In structured educational sessions, compare and contrast selected topics in pediatric, obstetric, and gynecologic patient populations, highlighting the relevant physiology, pathophysiology, basic science, and public health topics.
