Abstract

Background: The present teaching model for undergraduate medical students is predominantly followed by many medical schools in our sub-continent. With the intention of analyzing whether this method is appropriate for bring out a skillful future generation of doctors, we correlated the perception regarding usefulness of training parameters with the perception regarding competency to perform selective procedures among newly graduated doctors from our hospital.Methods: We conducted a cross sectional descriptive survey research among 93 students immediately after completion of their internship during the year 2016. A set of statements were formulated regarding usefulness of training curriculum and competency to perform procedures. Students were asked to give their quantitative level of agreement on a 5-level Likert scale, depending on their perception. This data was used for a correlation analysis.Results: Our analysis suggested that when the training was perceived to be effective, the perception of competency to perform selective procedures increased. Hence, a satisfactory training program may lead the way to enhance student competency to perform basic procedures during and after internship.Conclusion: We conclude that proper skills training before graduation will definitely have an influence in the career of young medical graduates. Besides that, the present teaching model can be tailored to meet individual learning capacities for better yielding.
