Abstract

The field of otolaryngology-head and neck surgery is rapidly changing, and surgical education must keep pace. In the face of recent advances in medical knowledge, surgical technique, and novel technology, educators may find it increasingly difficult to identify the evolving educational needs of otolaryngology residents. To better align training activities with modern practice patterns, we propose conducting a longitudinal needs assessment by designing a standardized specialty-specific survey for practicing otolaryngologists. This recurring survey could be implemented alongside accreditation or other continuing medical education activities. The outcomes would report what contemporary otolaryngologists see and do in everyday practice to guide educational reforms to better prepare trainees for future practice.
