Colorectal Section, Division of Colon and Rectal Surgery, Department of Surgery, Chang Gung Memorial Hospital, Linkou Branch, No. 5, Fuxing St., Guishan Dist., Taoyuan, 33305, Taiwan.
Background: Many surgeons have begun learning about colorectal surgery using laparoscopy rather than laparotomy. The domains of four-step technique training program (DOF) for laparoscopic colorectal surgery have been designed and implemented by our institute since 2011, and they are expected to provide a safe and effective program for trainees with limited experience in laparoscopic colorectal surgery.
Method: The DOF were established with standard surgical procedures, a four-step technique, and learning passports using point credits after the procedure was completed.

Background: High-risk neonates continuing to need enteral nutrition, but otherwise medically ready for discharge home from the NICU, are often offered ongoing hospitalization for nasogastric tube (NGT) feeding, versus discharge after placement of gastrostomy tube. Our group developed an interdisciplinary algorithm to support a third option-discharge home with enteral nutrition via NGT. Our objective was to develop a cross-institutional and interdisciplinary pathway to optimize outcomes for neonates discharged with NGTs.
