Orthopaedic Surgery Residency Education Program

欢迎参加德克萨斯大学健康科学中心McGovern医学院的骨科手术居住培训计划。每年,该部门与六名医学生匹配以进入其居住计划。

The Department of Orthopaedic Surgery prides itself on providing an unparalleled education through access to faculty and the inclusion of the latest technologies and tools to further your development at all levels of your education. From the fundamentals through exposure to all of the major subspecialties within orthopedics, resident education is comprised of three main components: knowledge, skills and experience.

Working in the busiest Level One Trauma Center in the nation, residents are exposed to all varieties of orthopedic trauma – on average, more than 7600 admissions per year. The training program provides ample opportunity for both clinical and basic research. The clinical research is supported by a strong clinical research department and a database of over 3000 cases. Basic science research provides the opportunity to be involved in inflection and problems of bone healing. As well there is a strong bone research focus across the Texas Medical Center’s academic institutions which is available to those interested in this area.

五年的临床旋转包括在骨科内部每个主要的亚科中的手术和非手术经验。增强的教育工具,包括最先进的手术模拟器和关节镜模拟器,使居民能够增强其手术技能并立即获得反馈。侧重于磨练手术技能,各级居民定期参加技能课程以及各种解剖和尸体解剖实验室。

Hands-on experience is an important component of the orthopaedic residency program. The program has one of the first training simulation programs and provides the level specific resident with the opportunity to develop the necessary skills by cadaveric simulation to assure successful completion of their ACGME mandated milestones.
