Course Objective and Content

Course Objectives:

The purpose of this course is to learn basic knowledge of surgery and develop skills necessary for sufficient
surgical clerkship. Students learn common surgical problems and understand the indications for essential
diagnostic studies used to evaluate patients with surgical problems.They understand and possibly perform various
basic procedures, such as: venipuncture, placement of intravenous catheter, insertion of urethral (Foley) catheter,
insertion of nasogastric tube, removal of surgical drains, closure of surgical incisions, removal of suture/staples,
dressing changes. Students understand how to and possibly apply specific protocol in the operating room
(scrubbing, gowning, gloving, prepping and draping), interpret common laboratory tests, common radiologic
tests.
