Aims

We aim to objectively assess the impact of COVID-19 on mean total operative cases for all indicative procedures (as outlined by the Joint Committee on Surgical Training (JCST)) experienced by orthopaedic trainees in the deanery of the Republic of Ireland. Subjective experiences were reported for each trainee using questionnaires.

Methods

During the first four weeks of the nationwide lockdown due to COVID-19, the objective impact of the pandemic on each trainee’s surgical caseload exposure was assessed using data from individual trainee logbook profiles in the deanery of the Republic of Ireland. Independent predictor variables included the trainee grade (ST 3 to 8), the individual trainee, the unit that the logbook was reported from, and the year in which the logbook was recorded. We used the analysis of variance (ANOVA) test to assess for any statistically significant predictor variables. The subjective experience of each trainee was captured using an electronic questionnaire.

The aim of this audit is to evaluate the patient experience of a nurse led follow up clinic for patients with sarcoma.

Those attending follow up in March 2009 were asked to participate in the audit by completing a short questionnaire. The aim of this questionnaire was to evaluate their clinic experience. It gathered their thought and feelings on being seen by a nurse rather than a doctor and whether they felt that had any implication on their satisfaction with the appointment.

The audit is on-going it is expected that the results will be available for presentation at the EMSOS Nurse Symposium in May 2009.
