DOI: 10.1055/s-0037-1602760
Abstract: Background Many plastic surgery training programs have implemented microvascular preparatory courses. However, these courses vary in length across institutions, lack formal assessment, and trainees receive certificates of completion rather than competency. In addition, many institutions… read more here.
