1 Introduction Will residents in osteopathic general surgery or vascular surgery training programs that become accredited by the ACGME on or after July 1, 2015 be eligible for appointment to a thoracic surgery independent training program and therefore be eligible for American Board of Thoracic Surgery (ABTS) certification? [Program Requirement: Int.C.1] Frequently Asked Questions: Thoracic Surgery Review Committee for Thoracic Surgery ACGME Effective July 1, 2016, residents who have successfully completed a residency in general surgery or vascular surgery accredited by the ACGME may be eligible to enter a thoracic surgery independent training program. However, this does not imply that the resident is eligible for certification by the American Board of Thoracic Surgery (ABTS). In accordance with the ABTS General Requirements for eligibility of residents whose programs are in the process of seeking ACGME accreditation during the transition to a single GME accreditation system, the (ABTS) has adopted a similar policy as the American Board of Surgery (ABS). Osteopathic candidates will need to complete at least three years (PGY-3-5) in a general surgery residency program that was fully accredited by the ACGME, followed by the successful completion of an ACGMEaccredited thoracic surgery residency. What experiences comprise the required core surgical education for an integrated program? [Program Requirement: Int.C.3.b)] Residents who have questions about ABTS certification, or who are uncertain about their eligibility for ABTS certification, should review the information available on the ABTS website and/or contact the board directly. In an integrated program, core surgical education experience comprises rotations designed to expose the resident adequately to the fundamentals of general and cardiothoracic surgery. The rotations should focus on introduction to and understanding of the following suggested list of acceptable topics: general surgery, cardiac surgery, thoracic surgery, congenital cardiac surgery, critical care, plastic surgery, trauma, vascular surgery, pediatric surgery, abdominal and alimentary tract surgery, basic and advanced laparoscopic skills, head, neck, and endocrine surgery, surgical oncology, and transplantation. The core surgical education experience must be suitable to provide the resident with the essential knowledge in the above suggested categories to allow him/her to function as a practicing cardiothoracic surgeon, and must also allow sufficient time to complete the case numbers required, as determined by the ABTS, for certification Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) Page 1 of 6
2 Institutions Do the program director and all members of The Committee expects the program director and faculty to participate in educational the faculty have to participate in faculty sessions aimed at improving knowledge and techniques involved in teaching residents. development activities each year? What are While not every faculty member must participate in a faculty development activity each some examples of acceptable faculty year, the program director and faculty are expected to engage frequently enough to development activities? ensure that they continue to develop and support their skills as educators, trainers, and mentors. [Program Requirement: I.A.1.c)] Examples of such activities include lectures, workshops, or courses on faculty development provided by the GME office of the Sponsoring Institution, and departmental grand rounds or faculty sessions on such topics as methods of teaching and methods of evaluation. Program Personnel and Resources What type of educational and administrative experience is required before appointment as a new program director? [Program Requirement: II.A.1.b)] More formal activities, such as national courses specifically created to help improve the teaching and assessment of residents, are also appropriate. Examples include the American College of Surgeons Surgical Education: Principles and Practice course, the American College of Surgeons Surgeons as Educators course, the Joint Council for Thoracic Surgery Education s Educate the Educators course, and the ACGME Annual Educational Conference. Thoracic surgery residency is a very complex undertaking, and the accreditation requirements are extensive. Individuals must be sufficiently prepared to take on the role and have the support of the department and institution to devote the time and effort required to oversee a high quality residency program. Therefore, a minimum of five years as a GME faculty member and some experience as an associate program director is advised for all new program director candidates. In addition to the Accreditation Data System (ADS) request for program director approval, letters of support from the candidate s Department chairman and the designated institution official (DIO) may also be sent to Executive Director Donna Lamb, dlamb@acgme.org Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) Page 2 of 6
3 Educational Program Which faculty members are permitted to supervise residents in the operating room? [Program Requirements: IV.A.5.a).(2).(d).(i)- (iv)] Evaluation What are acceptable ways for a program to evaluate resident performance? [Program Requirement: V.C.2.a)] The Program Requirements state that residents must demonstrate competence, under supervision of members of the thoracic surgery faculty The Committee interprets thoracic surgery faculty to include any faculty member certified by a member board of the American Board of Medical Specialties. Such individuals are not limited to ABTS-certified thoracic surgeons. Programs are expected to evaluate resident performance, including the effectiveness of educational activities that document improved resident cognitive performance, technical skills, and professional behaviors. In integrated programs, the Committee expects that programs will require residents to use the General Surgery American Board of Surgery In-Service Examination (ABSITE) and/or the Thoracic Surgery ABSITE as one measure of resident performance during the PG-1-3 years. The Thoracic Surgery ABSITE could be used as one measure of resident evaluation during the PG-4-6 years of an integrated program, and in all PG years of an independent program. Resident Duty Hours in the Learning and Working Environment What types of physicians are acceptable as Appropriately-credentialed and privileged attending physicians in the clinical identifiable, appropriately-credentialed, and environment include ABMS member board-certified physicians and surgeons (i.e., privileged attending physicians to be thoracic surgeries would be supervised by certified thoracic surgeons, etc.). ultimately responsible for a patient s care? [Program Requirement: VI.D.1] What are some examples of tasks for which I. Indirect Supervision Allowed PGY-1 residents may be supervised indirectly, and for which tasks should PGY-1 a. Patient Management Competencies residents have direct supervision until 1.

5 What is the optimum clinical workload for residents? [Program Requirement: VI.E] What are the elements of an effective interprofessional team? [Program Requirement: VI.F] Optimum workload may be very different between individual residents at the same level, and between residents at different levels, related to experience, speed of learning, and personal efficiency. Optimum work is achieved when a resident is busy and engaged in direct patient care for 60-90% of his or her normal duty hours, with the exception of extended hours of call where busy is more likely 10-50% of clinical activities in the on-call period. It is appropriate to challenge residents to take on progressively more responsibility and to develop efficient multi-tasking skills necessary for the work of a thoracic surgeon. Effective surgical practices entail the involvement of interprofessional team members with a mix of complementary skills. Residents must collaborate with fellow surgical residents and faculty members, other physicians outside of the specialty, and nontraditional health care providers to best formulate treatment plans for an increasingly diverse patient population. Residents must assume personal responsibility to complete all tasks to which they are assigned (or which they voluntarily assume) in a timely fashion. These tasks must be completed in the hours assigned, or, if that is not possible, residents must learn and utilize the established methods for handing off remaining tasks to another member of the resident team so that patient care is not compromised. Lines of authority should be defined by programs, and all residents must have a working knowledge of these expected reporting relationships to maximize quality care and patient safety Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) Page 5 of 6
6 What skills should members of the interprofessional caregiver team have and how should these be ensured across the team? [Program Requirement: VI.F] Are there any additional circumstances under which residents may stay on duty to care for their patients or return to the hospital with fewer than eight hours free of duty? [Program Requirements: VI.G.5.c).(1).(a)- (b)] All members of the interprofessional caregiver team should be provided instruction in: 1. communication, so that if all required tasks cannot be accomplished in a timely fashion, appropriate methods are established to hand off the remaining task(s) to another team member at the end of a duty period; 2. compliance with work hours limits imposed at the various levels of education; 3. prioritization of tasks as the dynamics of a patient s needs change; 4. recognition of and sensitivity to the experience and competency of other team members; 5. recognizing when an individual becomes overburdened with duties that cannot be accomplished within an allotted time period; 6. signs and symptoms of fatigue not only in oneself, but in other team members; 7. team development; and, 8. time management. Yes, and these include: 1. continuity of care for patients; a) A patient on whom a resident operated/intervened that day needs return to the operating room (OR) b) A patient on whom a resident operated/intervened that day requires transfer to an intensive care unit (ICU) from a lower level of care c) A patient on whom a resident operated/intervened that day in ICU is critically unstable d) A patient on whom a resident operated/intervened during that hospital admission needs to return to the OR related to an operation or procedure previously performed by that resident e) A patient or patient s family needs to discuss treatment of a critically-ill patient on whom the resident has operated or is responsible for care. 2. a declared emergency or disaster, for which residents are included in the disaster plan; and, 3. to perform high-profile, low frequency procedures necessary for competence in the field Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) Page 6 of 6
