Designing, implementing, and evaluating a basic surgical skills bootcamp: An effective approach to enhance competency in surgical residency training.

Introduction: Recent technological advances have facilitated the development of new educational methods, such as simulation-based learning, in specialized bootcamps to enhance the learning of surgical residents. This study aimed to design, implement, and evaluate a basic surgical skills bootcamp for residents in general surgery, orthopedics, neurosurgery, and gynecology based on the learning gap in the current educational program.

Methods: This intervention study focused on the design, implementation, and evaluation of a basic surgical skills bootcamp in a simulated operating room for first-year surgical residents in general surgery, orthopedics, neurosurgery, and gynecology.

A Comparative Study of the Effect of Two Methods of Online Education Based on Sweller'S Cognitive Load Theory and Online Education in A Common Way on the Academic Engagement of Medical Students in Anatomy.

Background: One of the most important indicators of the quality of education and academic achievement is students' academic engagement, and the progress of using online education has fundamentally changed the learning-teaching processes Therefore, the aim of this study was to compare the effect of two methods of online education based on Sweller's cognitive load theory and online education in a conventional method on the academic engagement of medical students in anatomy.

Methods: The present study was a quasi-experimental study with two groups not identical to the before and after design. To collect information, the Shuffle and Becker academic engagement questionnaire with Cronbach's alpha of 0.

Comparison of the effect of two teaching methods on surgical technologist students' learning and satisfaction (flashcards vs. mobile-based learning).

Background: M-learning is "learning across multiple contexts, through social and content interactions, using simple hand-held technologies, wireless and mobile network. This personal electronic device is a way to facilitate the transfer of learning and improve teaching. Hence, the researchers decided to design a mobile-based learning application to teach surgical instruments comprehensively and compare students' learning and satisfaction in both mobile-based learning and flashcards methods.

A Comparison of Three Dressing Methods for Pilonidal Sinus Surgery Wound Healing.

Objective: To evaluate the effect of different dressing methods on the wound healing process after pilonidal sinus surgery.

Methods: In this clinical trial, 60 patients undergoing pilonidal sinus surgery were randomly assigned to one of three groups. In the first group, hydrogel or alginate and hydrocolloid compounds were used as a standard occlusive dressing method.
