Development and Assessment of a Deceased Donor Organ Recovery Workshop for Surgical Fellows
This pilot study represents a notable step as the first workshop tailored for transplant fellows in Canada, demonstrating sustained improvement in both confidence and competence for deceased donor organ procurements. The study is limited by results from a single center and small sample size, impacting the generalizability of findings. However, the workshop addresses variability in transplant fellows' exposure and confidence levels, emphasizing the importance of structured training in organ procurement to enhance skills and readiness for real-time procedures.
