Abstract

Purpose of review: The purpose of this review is to highlight literature regarding resident boot camps published across surgical specialties with a focus on urology. Herein, we discuss different boot camp iterations, their results, and the integration of simulation into their curriculum. We review program elements such as curriculum, course length, and efficacy as well as areas for continued investigation.

Recent findings: The field of urology has grown in both the breadth of knowledge and the complexity of procedures. With urology now being an integrated surgical subspecialty, interns often start on the urology service despite limited experience navigating this unique specialty. The boot camp model is one method by which interns and junior residents participate in consolidated training programs to best prepare them for a patient-facing role and the day-to-day demands of residency. Urology programs, both in the USA and abroad, have begun integrating boot camps into their training programs with positive results. Urology boot camps can be a valuable part of training programs for interns to quickly establish medical knowledge, skills, and efficiency. Boot camps should be easily accessible, have sufficient support from institutions, and provide effective training through various methods such as didactics and simulation.

泌尿外科训练营模式：为PGY1泌尿外科实习生的实习做准备。

综述的目的：本综述的目的是强调外科专业发表的关于住院新兵训练营的文献，重点是泌尿外科。在这里，我们讨论了不同的训练营迭代，它们的结果，以及将模拟集成到他们的课程中。我们回顾了课程设置、课程长度、疗效等项目要素，以及需要继续调查的领域。最近的发现：泌尿外科领域在知识的广度和手术的复杂性方面都有所增长。由于泌尿外科现在是一个综合性的外科亚专业，实习生经常开始从事泌尿外科服务，尽管在这个独特的专业中经验有限。新兵训练营模式是实习生和初级住院医师参加综合培训计划的一种方法，以使他们为面对患者的角色和住院医师的日常需求做好最佳准备。美国和国外的泌尿外科项目已经开始将训练营纳入他们的训练项目，并取得了积极的成果。泌尿外科训练营可以成为实习生快速建立医学知识、技能和效率的培训计划的重要组成部分。训练营应该很容易进入，有足够的机构支持，并通过各种方法（如教学法和模拟）提供有效的培训。

期刊介绍： This journal intends to review the most important, recently published findings in the field of urology. By providing clear, insightful, balanced contributions by international experts, the journal elucidates current and emerging approaches to the care and prevention of urologic diseases and conditions. We accomplish this aim by appointing international authorities to serve as Section Editors in key subject areas, such as benign prostatic hyperplasia, erectile dysfunction, female urology, and kidney disease. Section Editors, in turn, select topics for which leading experts contribute comprehensive review articles that emphasize new developments and recently published papers of major importance, highlighted by annotated reference lists. An international Editorial Board reviews the annual table of contents, suggests articles of special interest to their country/region, and ensures that topics are current and include emerging research. Commentaries from well-known figures in the field are also provided.
