It is worth mentioning that not all consortia have available training numbers each year, so a certain degree of flexibility regarding location may be required. Interdeanery transfers are possible but there are strict eligibility criteria. Compulsory courses and publication requirements are due to be removed from the Certificate of Completion of Training CCT requirements. Currently, the recommendation is for trainees to sit the FRCS once they have received a favourable ST6 outcome and are signed off for the exam by 2 consultants.

So you want to be a paediatric surgeon? Limited exposure at medical school, few posts included in the foundation programme and the tertiary natu re of the specialty can make paediatric surgical experience difficult to attain.
A small specialty with a broad range of conditions. How to find out more? Medical School and Foundation Training Although some medical schools and foundation training programmes do include placements in paediatric surgery, these are few and far between.
Paediatric care in the next 20 years will bear little relation to how it was at the end of the twentieth century. Paediatric hospitals will have to change their structures and also their organisational models. An area that is constantly developing and expanding is imaging. Surgical operations will depend on more precise knowledge in this field.
Images are already used through endoscopic cameras and three-dimensional endocavitary ultrasonography, and operating theatres will shortly install open magnetic resonance systems. The development of 3D printing models with the aid of imaging will enable surgeons to familiarise themselves with corrective surgical techniques. Virtual surgical exploration simulated in models designed using imaging and 3D printing will make it possible to practise and guide surgical gestures on a personalised basis, preventing unexpected microlesions.
The use of remote-controlled nanorobots will also allow operations to be performed in mobile theatres. In a study carried out at Guy's Hospital in London the success of simulated surgery using traditional methods was compared with that of remote operations. The use of nanorobots was clearly more successful for targeting and resolving renal calculi.
Robot-assisted surgery can be seen as the surgery of the future that is almost here already. This type of surgery is a confluence of imaging technology, surgical procedure and use of robotic instruments. Robotic surgery is a major developing area in minimally invasive surgery. Instruments of this kind allow greater precision, notably reduce the number of complications haemorrhages, accidental sectioning of nerve branches, etc. It is a very attractive type of surgery, but currently very expensive and difficult to introduce in health care systems with severely limited budgets.
Most advances will come from innovation associated with curiosity, in its various forms. It is curiosity that makes surgeons ask questions and consequently develop creative strategies that produce innovative results. There is really no consensus in the surgical community on distinguishing between innovation and research, and this is probably due to the fact that they are closely related.
For example, curiosity about the use of laparoscopic access, following its appearance, rapidly led to application in many fields: thoracoscopy, laparoscopy, robotic telesurgery, laparoscopy by natural orifices, etc. The laparoscopic revolution has been a clear example of innovation used by one person, popularised through scientific networks and disseminated to the surgical community worldwide. Unfortunately it is usually only in countries with a high level of investment in health care research that innovations in surgery are developed, although other countries clearly benefit from such contributions.
Simulation-based medical education SBME is a new area of medical training that is growing rapidly around the world. A large part of the reason for its success is the fact that high-fidelity medical simulation is a powerful tool that makes it possible to improve the safety and quality of patient care. Simulation-based medical education offers medical specialists, residents, nurses and students the opportunity to learn and train, independently or in teams, in unusual scenarios.
Professionals and students also have an opportunity to observe and assess their response to stressful situations and to correct it in subsequent simulations, all without posing a threat to patients. Simulation-based medical education enables the teacher to assess the student's response to situations that require them to put into practice their theoretical knowledge, integration of clinical information, technical skills, relationship with the patient and ability to respond in stressful clinical situations.
Clinical research by review of cases is encouraged. Each ST trainee will be expected to complete an audit cycle in each year of the programme. ST3 Person specifications.
