Comment on: training orthopaedic specialist trainees.

摘要

We read with interest the results of Eardley et al. regarding trainee perceptions of damage control orthopaedics (DCO) and early total care (ETC) trauma management. They subdivide perceived exposure, decision making, operative role and adequacy of training with regards to DCO, ETC and management of the floating knee with vascular compromise. The authors state that overall perceptions in confidence and adequacy of training are generally positive. We wonder if this sentiment is misplaced.
