Goal-setting in Plastic Surgery using the SMART principle
DISCUSSION: Surgical training today happens in a setting caught between economic and medicolegal challenges. The reduction of case load requires simulation practice as well as self-directed learning - which has been shown to improve outcomes. The smart principle allows distinct goal setting which can improve compliance of the student and increase success. As this form of learning is not intuitive to all individuals, supervisors and mentor can support trainees in the acquisition of surgical expertise using this principle.PMID:37918819 | DOI:10.1055/a-2157-0946 (Source: Handchirurgie Mikrochirurgie Plastische Chirurgie)
