Effect of resident involvement in surgery
Editor's Note
Resident involvement in surgery is associated with comparable patient morbidity and lower mortality outcomes than procedures without residents, this study finds.
The analysis used data from the American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (ACS NSQIP).
The findings provide a reassuring answer to patients, attending surgeons, and surgical program directors, the authors say.
