Published: January 2023

Background and Objectives: Despite the requirements of the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) to provide feedback, assessments are often not meeting the needs of resident learners. The objective of this study was to explore residents’ approach to reviewing, interpreting, and incorporating the feedback provided in written faculty assessments.
Methods: We conducted semistructured interviews with 14 family medicine residents. We used line-by-line iterative coding of the transcripts through the constant comparative method to identify themes and reach a consensus.
Results: The study revealed the following themes: (1) residents value the narrative portion of assessments over numerical ratings, (2) performance reflection and reaction are part of the feedback process, (3) residents had difficulty incorporating formal assessments as many did not provide actionable feedback.
Conclusions: Residents reported that narrative feedback gives more insight to performance and leads to actionable changes in behaviors. Programs should consider education for both faculty and residents on the usefulness, importance, and purpose of the ACGME Milestones in order to accurately determine resident competency and provide a summative assessment. Until the purpose of the ACGME Milestones is realized and utilized, it should be noted that the comment portion of evaluations will likely be the focus of the resident’s interaction with their assessments.

Published: January 2023

Background and Objective: It is documented that some of the opioids prescribed to manage chronic pain are diverted and used for nonmedical purposes. We investigated whether a skill-based, chronic pain management (CPM) educational program could improve first-year family medicine residents’ comfort, knowledge, and concerns in assessing and managing patients who use opioids for chronic noncancer pain.
Methods: A total of 72 first-year residents (four cohorts of 18) participated in a 3-month CPM training intervention that consisted of didactic lectures, objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) activities, and post-OSCE debriefing with faculty, one being a behavioral health specialist, between 2017 and 2020. We used a single-sample, pre/post design. At three points in time (baseline, 3-months, and 6-months postintervention), participants completed a set of measures assessing comfort, knowledge, and concern. We used repeated measures analyses to assess changes in outcome measures.
Results: Participants reported improvements compared with baseline at both follow-up time points. At 6 months postintervention, the participants had significantly better scores on measures of comfort (F[1, 71]=65.22; P&lt;.001), knowledge (F[1, 71]=22.38, P&lt;.001), and concern (F[1, 71]=37.89, P&lt;.001) in prescribing opioids for chronic noncancer pain.
Conclusion: A multiactivity CPM educational program for first-year residents was associated with improvement in perceived sense of comfort, knowledge, and concerns in assessing and managing patients who use opioids for chronic noncancer pain. CPM training interventions may be an effective tool to educate first-year residents to implement best practices for pain management with the goal of reducing the chances of inappropriately prescribing controlled substances or denying analgesia.

Authors: Chen Frederick , Weidner Amanda , Ormsby Molly , Maier Russell 
Published: January 2023

Background and Objective: The National Resident Matching Program’s (NRMP) Supplemental Offer and Acceptance Program (SOAP) places unmatched applicants in residency programs. We examined the outcomes and experience of family medicine residency programs that matched with residents through SOAP.
Methods: In 2020, all program directors in a regional family medicine residency network whose programs had participated in SOAP (n=23) completed a survey on their experience with SOAP and characteristics of residents who were matched via SOAP (n=52) anytime between 2012 and 2020. Resident outcome measures included graduation, remediation, leadership, fit, and comparisons of Milestones areas. Experiences with the SOAP process included factors that may have led the program to SOAP and advice for other programs participating.
Results: Eighty-seven percent of residents matched via the SOAP graduated, and the majority compared favorably to other residents. Two-thirds of program directors were very likely to hire their residents matched via the SOAP. Rural programs had similar outcomes, although rural-track positions represented 30% of all residents matched via the SOAP in the study. More than half of all responding program directors reported being underprepared for the SOAP process. Program directors recommend getting familiar with the NRMP resources and setting aside time for key personnel in case a program needs to participate in SOAP.
Conclusions: The vast majority of residents matched via the SOAP are well prepared for training, contribute to their programs, and perform as well as other residents. Rural programs are more likely to place residents via SOAP than nonrural programs.

Introduction. The incidence of gastric cancer remains high, despite the increase in the share of stage I–II cancers — 37.1% in 2019. Surgical treatment remains relevant even in patients with “early” forms of gastric cancer (EGC). Therefore, the reliable means for determining the surgeon volume in such patients are to be urgently developed.Aim. To estimate the probability of building a stable predictive model for patients with EGC in order to choose the proper surgical intervention.Materials and methods. Th e research involved the data obtained from “Database of patients with gastric cancer, reflecting statistics of patients with a particular variant of surgical intervention, treated at Yaroslavl Regional Clinical Oncological Hospital during the period from 2009 to 2019”. All patients (n = 266) received different volume of surgery: intraluminal surgery (n = 128), wedge gastric resection (n = 36), classical gastrectomy or subtotal gastric resection (n = 102). According to the volume of intervention, the patients were ratified into several study groups. Statistical analysis involved case records of three groups of patients and was conducted using MedCalc Statistical Soft ware version 20.022 and Statistica 12.5.Results. Ten factors were identified to form a patient model corresponding to each method of surgical treatment. Th e fairness of the division of patients into groups was checked by ROC-analysis in order to determine sensitivity and specificity of the set of criteria for the division. Th e following characteristics of the mathematical model were obtained by means of ROC analysis: concordance coefficient = 88.24%, AUC = 0.893; index J = 0.811; Se = 87.92; Sp = 89.04; +LR = 3.27; -LR = 1.31.Conclusion. Introduction of this approach into clinical practice decreased the rate of gastrectomies and gastric resections by 15% for the last three years.

Published: January 2023

Introduction. Simultaneous hernio-abdominoplasty allows solving a complex of problems of the anterior abdominal wall in one surgical intervention. Th e relevance of this issue is determined by the lack of a unified algorithm for solving the combinations of anterior abdominal wall pathologies and by the presence of a number of complications, both in isolated and combined surgical techniques.Aim. The present paper analyzes the treatment results of patients undergoing simultaneous surgery for ventral hernia and deformations of the anterior abdominal wall.Materials and methods. Th e study enrolled 17 women (mean age 35.6 ± 7.0) undergoing inpatient and outpatient treatment in the Department of Plastic Surgery, Mother and Child Clinical Hospital, Ufa, in the period from 2019 to 2022. All patients had various aesthetic deformations of the anterior abdominal wall (laxity and excess skin, skin-fat apron, diastasis of the rectus abdominis muscles, excessive fat deposits) and midline ventral hernia of various sizes. 100 % patients had a history of pregnancy and childbirth; 64.7 % – grade 2 and 3 obesity.Results and discussion. Two cases (11.76 %) showed local complications as hematoma of the epigastric region and necrosis of the navel. In the first case, this can be explained by the fact that extensive liposuction of the anterior abdominal wall was performed, and in the second – by the presence of a multidefect ventral hernia of large size, in particular, an umbilical hernia with dimensions of 15x8 cm. Complications were mitigated on an outpatient basis within a period of 1.5 to 3 months by means of conservative therapy and physiotherapy.Conclusion. All patients were satisfied with the obtained aesthetic result

Published: January 2023

Introduction. Inguinal hernia repair is one of the most common elective surgeries today. In our clinic, the majority of inguinal hernia repairs are performed laparoscopically. The most frequent complication after transabdominal preperitoneal inguinal hernia repair is postoperative seroma.Materials and methods. A 35-year-old patient C. with a right-sided inguinal hernia sought medical care in our clinic. He underwent robot-assisted TAPP with fluorescence lymphography using indocyanine green (ICG).Results and discussion. The present paper describes the possible relationship between intraoperative damage of the lymphatic vessels within the spermatic cord induced by robot-assisted transabdominal preperitoneal inguinal hernia repair and postoperative development of inguinal seroma. 5 mg/ml of indocyanine green was injected into the testicle on the side with the hernial bulge to visualize the lymphatic vessels. In this case such procedure is safe and feasible. Due to the tight fusion of the hernia sac with two visualized lymphatic vessels, they were excised during surgery. In the early postoperative period, an ultrasound scan revealed a subclinical seroma in the inguinal region of approximately 10 ml.Conclusion. A case series of ICG fluorescence lymphography during robot-assisted TAPP should be performed further to elucidate the relationship between lymphatic vessel damage and hydrocele.

Authors: Malanon Hernaiz G. , Cruz Renita SM. Dela 
Published: January 2023

This study quantified the effects of rice combine harvester (RCH) on rice output particularly on harvesting-threshing losses and production costs. The postproduction losses using different models of RCH were established following a randomized complete block design with two replications and these were compared with the traditional method of harvesting and threshing rice. Partial budget analysis was employed to determine the benefits derived by farmer-adopters using the data gathered from a one-shot cross sectional survey involving 448 respondents. Results of the field experiments revealed that postproduction losses with the three models of RCH did not differ significantly, ranging from 1.19% to 1.76% of the total yield. Comparing the harvesting-threshing losses in using RCH and the traditional method, the use of RCH significantly reduced harvesting-threshing losses by 1.02 percentage points. Prevention of postharvest loss was more pronounced during the wet season harvest at 1.54 percent. From the point of view of the farmer-adopters, the use of RCH lowered harvesting costs by PhP 3,908.60/ha/ and gained additional PhP 718.40/ha for losses prevented by using RCH. Thus the farmer-adopter could potentially gains additional benefit of PhP 4,627.00/ha/cropping season. With these, the use of RCH has the potential to enhance rice competitiveness by lowering the production cost and preventing paddy loss by PhP1.12/kg or 9.56% of the current production cost.
