背景外科的指导计划被用来克服临床和学术生产力、研究成功和工作与生活平衡的障碍。我们试图确定东部创伤外科协会(EAST)指导计划是否实现了培养年轻急性护理外科医生的学业和个人成长的目标。方法：我们对EAST指导计划的前4年进行了系统的计划评估。人口统计信息收集自EAST记录、导师计划申请和导师-导师职业发展计划。我们回顾了职业发展计划的主题共性和自计划开始以来发放的结构化在线调查问卷的结果。为了更好地从受教育者和导师的角度了解计划目标，以及关于该职业发展计划感知成功的态度和障碍，我们使用了一种混合方法。结果2012至2015年间，65名指导二人配对，60人完成了计划。在分发的184份调查中，有108份被退回(回复率为57%)。受访者平均分布在学员和导师之间(53vs.55，p=0.768)。在参与者调查中，指导关系被认为侧重于研究(45%)、“棘手的情况”(例如，沟通、工作与生活的平衡)(27%)、教育(18%)或行政问题(10%)。与导师相比，被辅导者更关注研究和教育(74%比50%；p=0.040)。被辅导者认为与导师相比，目标“总是”或“通常”达到(89%vs.77%；p=0.096)。成功指导的两个障碍包括时间和沟通，大多数伴侣通过电子邮件进行交流。大多数受访者(91%)计划在EAST指导计划之外继续保持这种关系，并向同事推荐了这种经历。结论：Mentee对EAST指导计划的满意度很高。辅导是在EAST年轻成员中促进成功的有益工具，但学员和导师的看法存在差异。修改沟通期望和时间承诺，以改善职业发展，可能会对我们年轻的急性护理外科医生有所帮助。
BACKGROUNDMentorship programs in surgery are used to overcome barriers to clinical and academic productivity, research success, and work-life balance. We sought to determine if the Eastern Association for the Surgery of Trauma (EAST) Mentoring Program has met its goals of fostering academic and personal growth in young acute care surgeons.METHODSWe conducted a systematic program evaluation of EAST Mentoring Program's first 4 years. Demographic information was collected from EAST records, mentorship program applications, and mentee-mentor career development plans. We reviewed the career development plans for thematic commonalities and results of a structured, online questionnaire distributed since program inception. A mixed methods approach was used to better understand the program goals from both mentee and mentor perspectives, as well as attitudes and barriers regarding the perceived success of this career development program.RESULTSDuring 2012 to 2015, 65 mentoring dyads were paired and 60 completed the program. Of 184 surveys distributed, 108 were returned (57% response rate). Respondents were evenly distributed between mentees and mentors (53 vs. 55, p= 0.768). In participant surveys, mentoring relationships were viewed to focus on research (45%),“sticky situations”(eg, communication, work-life balance)(27%), education (18%), or administrative issues (10%). Mentees were more focused on research and education versus mentors (74% vs. 50%; p= 0.040). Mentees felt that goals were “always” or “usually” met versus mentors (89% vs. 77%; p= 0.096). Two barriers to successful mentorship included time and communication, with most pairs communicating by email. Most respondents (91%) planned to continue the relationship beyond the EAST Mentoring Program and recommended the experience to colleagues.CONCLUSIONMentee satisfaction with the EAST Mentoring Program was high. Mentoring is a beneficial tool to promote success among EAST's young members, but differences exist between mentee and mentor perceptions. Revising communication expectations and time commitment to improve career development may help our young acute care surgeons.
