Transition from medical student to junior doctor is challenging and stressful
Methods: randomly selected final year medical students at Newcastle University Medicine Malaysia (NUMed) underwent online surgical simulation training in January 2021 using case scenarios previously piloted in face-to-face teaching
Prior to undertaking simulation training, 61.8% respondents felt that a surgical on-call was “scary and stressful”, 55.9% students felt that clinical decision making when on-call was stressful, and 52.9% respondents felt that breaking bad news was stressful
Summary
Transition from medical student to junior doctor is challenging and stressful. COVID-19 has restricted student exposure to hospital placements, where students usually begin to develop an approach to coping with future clinical roles. Can online simulation affect medical student’s perception of stress? A., Nichols, C., Trendall, L., Ong, G.S., Goodson, M.
