Clinical Trial Summary
The general surgery residency program was initiated in 2013 between Istanbul Medeniyet
University and Benadir University. A formal training program was established that covered
3-year theoretical and practical training that would form the structure of academic, clinical
and technical criteria by evaluating all the requirements of the surgical residency training.
A resident logbook was prepared to track exam results, practices, knowledge and skill status
that the residents achieved in the training process. Candidates who graduated from medical
school and were successful in the multiple-choice exam consisting of basic and clinical
sciences were accepted to the program each year in different numbers according to the
capacity. From the initiation, 16 surgeons -9 in 2016, 3 in 2017 and 4 in 2018- graduated
from the program. This study was designed after the last resident group graduated and worked
as an attending surgeon at least for a year.
Description:
The data were collected from graduates who were working as surgeons in Somalia to reveal the
features and numbers of elective, emergency, trauma, and non-general surgical interventions
performed in a month. A questionnaire consisting of pathology, type and numbers of
interventions performed in one month by graduate surgeons (GS), including general surgery and
other specialties, was prepared.
