DeBakey VA Medical Center, Baylor St. Luke's Medical Center, and Texas Children’s Hospital</h3><p>Led by Program Director Dr. Jeremy L. Ward, M.D., FACS since 2019, the Baylor College of Medicine Surgical Critical Care Fellowship’s mission is to provide fellows with a diverse and broad-based experience in all aspects of Surgical Critical Care through the multiple health care systems and surgical ICU's within Baylor College of Medicine. The fellowship strives to continually improve the experience and curriculum for the fellows to maximize the opportunities offered at Baylor College of Medicine. The fellowship has expanded and offers three focus tracks: two 2-year Acute Care Surgery positions which include 1-year of ACGME approved Surgical Critical Care, one 1-year traditional Surgical Critical Care position, and one 1-year Pediatric Surgical Critical Care position. This is accomplished through four affiliated hospitals within the Texas Medical Center, with diverse patient populations, disease processes, and faculty within the Michael E. DeBakey Department of Surgery. The affiliated hospitals and ICU's include Ben Taub Hospital Trauma Surgical Intensive Care Unit, Baylor St. Luke's Medical Center Surgical Intensive Care Unit, Thoracic Surgical Intensive Care Unit, and Cardiovascular Surgery Recovery Intensive Care Unit, Michael E. DeBakey Veterans Affairs Medical Center Surgical Intensive Care Unit, and Texas Children’s Hospital Pediatric Surgical Intensive Care Unit. These ICU's provide extensive clinical exposure for the critical care fellows to have significant experience and attain proficiency in the management of a diverse array of critically ill surgical adult and pediatric patients. In addition, at each facility, the Surgical Critical Care Fellows assume supervisory and administrative roles in each ICU under supervision and mentorship of each of the assigned faculty. The length of the educational program is 24 months for the Acute Care Surgery tack and 12 months traditional and pediatric tracks. The monthly schedule for the ACS and traditional fellows includes rotations through the Ben Taub Hospital TSICU (3 months), BSLMC Surgical ICU (3 months), Baylor St. Luke’s Medical Center Thoracic Surgical ICU (2 months), BSLMC CV-recovery unit (1 month), and MEDVAMC SICU (2 months). Non-ICU elective rotations complete the schedule and are presently being expanded. The Pediatric Critical Care Resident will follow a rigorous schedule at Texas Children’s, rotating in the Pediatric Surgical ICU, PICU, NICU for three months, CVICU, Burn Unit, and then rotating at Ben Taub Hospital TSICU for two months. In addition to the extensive clinical experience, a robust didactic curriculum is provided. The foundation of the curriculum is the weekly Core Conference which covers a broad array of topics in critical care. Additionally, fellows participate in a variety of workshops and educational conferences through the department and multidisciplinary critical care efforts, such as ultrasound, difficult airway, and cardiac device workshops, ASSET course, and the Advances in Critical Care conference. For the Acute Care Surgery fellows, the second year provides a robust clinical and operative experience. Fellows are appointed as clinical instructors and rotate between Ben Taub Hospital and Baylor St. Luke’s Medical Center every two months. The year is structured to provide faculty support and mentorship to the fellows to foster development and progression to independence. As a major Level 1 Trauma Center with relatively high percentage of patients presenting with penetrating injury, Ben Taub provides significant exposure to complex trauma and robust emergency general surgery from an underserved patient population. Baylor St. Luke’s Medical Center has a robust and growing emergency general surgery service and sees many medically and surgically complex patients and diseases. To supplement this experience, the fellows have additional operative experience through affiliated faculty in the community for specialty cases such as sternotomy, cardiac surgery, carotid endarterectomy, and femoral-popliteal bypass to ensure proficiency with these less common exposures. During the two year fellowship, to foster development of the fellows in alignment with their career goals, they will engage in mentorship with research faculty, ICU directors, trauma medical director, and/or educational leaders, and fellows can participate in early career development programs through BCM.</p><h2>How to apply</h2><p>Baylor College of Medicine is using SAFAS as our application portal.

Since 1997, the American College of Surgeons has recognized BUMC as a Level 1 Trauma Center with approximately 2,400 admissions yearly. There are 123 total ICU beds, 57 of which are surgical ICU beds. Currently, our surgical critical care faculty provides care for trauma, acute care surgery, general surgery, solid organ transplant, heart and lung transplant, cardiothoracic, neurosurgery, orthopedic and orthopedic spinal surgery, ENT, oral surgery, OB-GYN, and plastic surgery. The surgeons in the Division of Trauma, Critical Care and Acute Care Surgery have always been closely involved in general surgery resident education (9 residents a year), as well as research and quality initiatives. Our surgeons also serve as Texas A & M Health Science Center College of Medicine faculty and are heavily involved in medical student education. There are 48 medical students in each class that rotate on our campus starting in their 2nd year. The Division of Trauma, Critical Care and Acute Care Surgery faculty is a diverse group including surgical critical emergency medicine and pulmonary critical care intensivists, and 14 of the 15 faculty are Surgical Critical Care Board Certified. The ACGME approved our Surgical Critical Care Fellowship in March 2016 for four (4) fellowship positions, although we currently have funding for three (3). The goal of our Surgical Critical Care Fellowship program is to prepare the fellows to function as qualified practitioners at the advanced level of performance expected of Board-certified sub-specialists. The fellowship will allow fellows to develop proficiency in the management of critically-ill and injured patients, develop necessary qualifications to supervise surgical critical care units, and to conduct scholarly activities in trauma/surgical critical care. The 12-month fellowship is designed to provide surgical critical care fellows with an education in the principles and practice of state-of-the art trauma and surgical critical care according to medical knowledge and patient care, practice-based learning and improvement, systems-based practice, professionalism, and interpersonal and communication skills. This is accomplished by exposing the surgical critical care fellows to a broad array of surgical illnesses through didactic instruction in the basic and clinical sciences, as well as education during teaching rounds, primary patient care, educational conferences, and specialized rotations. Upon completion of training, the surgical critical care fellows are expected to integrate the acquired knowledge into the clinical situation to demonstrate proficiency in surgical critical care decision-making, specific organ system support, evaluation of new technology and treatment techniques, ICU administration, outcomes assessment, research design, and interaction with patients, families, and health care personnel. The Surgical Critical Care Fellowship will be individualized to each applicant and is focused on developing their future practices whether in academics or a private setting. The fellowship year is also customized to address specific deficits that the candidate feels that he/she might have with respect to operative, non-operative, and interventional management.

Training takes place at ECUHMC, the 900+-bed flagship tertiary care teaching hospital of East Carolina University. ECUHMC is a state of North Carolina accredited, and American College of Surgeons verified, level I trauma center, and is one of the busiest tertiary care academic medical centers in the country. The trauma center at ECUHMC admits approximately 2,800 patients annually, and the trauma and surgical intensive care unit evaluates over 1,500 patients annually. As the only tertiary care center serving the entirety of Eastern North Carolina and the Outer Banks, ECUHMC is unique in its volume, breadth and complexity of trauma and surgical critical illness. Nine months of the SCC year take place in the 24-bed trauma/surgical ICU as well as the 8-bed neurosurgical ICU. Electives are available in pediatric, cardiothoracic, and medical critical care, as well as burns and trauma. Within ACGME guidelines, we make a concerted effort to get fellows into the operating room during the SCC year. The strengths of the SCC year are multiple, and include the volume and complexity of tertiary care surgical pathology encountered in a rural and under-served region. In addition, the fellowship offers graded autonomy, allowing fellows to "run" a multidisciplinary trauma and surgical intensive care unit. The true strength of the fellowship lies in the teaching faculty, 11 fellowship trained faculty, each having been formally recognized for teaching excellence. The unique feature of the ACS year relates to the lack of competing residents and fellows on the majority of rotations, including orthopedics and neurosurgery. Mandatory rotations include trauma, emergency general surgery, neurosurgery, orthopedic surgery, vascular and interventional surgery, as well as thoracic. Electives are available in burns, pediatric surgery, urology and international trauma. The year includes intensive experience in trauma and emergency general surgery, with fellows serving as the attending on those services, as well as a special focus on trauma systems and acute care surgery leadership. The clear and simple goal of our fellowships is to train the next generation of leaders in acute care surgery. Completion of the SCC year is required to enter the ACS fellowship. The application process includes submission of curriculum vitae and three letters of recommendation, one of which should be from the department chair or program director. Interviews are conducted from May 1st through August 15th. We participate in the National Resident Matching Program. East Carolina University is an equal opportunity and affirmative action employer and seeks to create an environment that fosters the recruitment and retention of a more diverse student body, faculty, staff and administration. We encourage qualified applicants from women, minorities, veterans, individuals with a disability, and historically underrepresented groups. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to their race/ethnicity, color, genetic information, national origin, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, age, disability, political affiliation, or veteran status.

The goal of the Global Surgery Fellowship is to prepare American-trained general surgeons to be competent and capable of performing the needed surgeries in rural, low-resource environments, and low- and middle-income countries (LMIC). The Global Surgery Fellowship furthers the Loma Linda University Health (LLUH) goal ‘to make man whole’ and is committed to the values of the LLUH Surgical Department: Compassion, Excellence, Humility, Integrity, Justice, Teamwork, and Wholeness. It aims to address the overwhelming surgical needs throughout the developing world by enabling an increase in access to safe surgery globally. In 2015, the World Health Organization recognized that the lack of access to safe surgical care results in 3-times more deaths than HIV, TB, and Malaria combined and the W.H.O. made Global Surgery a priority in public health. There are approximately five billion people around the globe who lack access to safe and affordable surgical and anesthesia care with a vast majority of those people living in the low-resource settings of LMIC. It is estimated that each year 143 million additional surgical procedures need to be done in Sub-Saharan Africa alone. The LLUH GSF will directly address surgery’s indispensable part of health care in underserved areas and will positively affect the U.N. Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by training surgeons to be capable and competent of surgery in rural, low-resource environments as well as training surgeons competent and capable of working in rural hospitals throughout the USA and the world. The Global Surgery Fellowship (GSF) is a one-year training program for American Board of Surgery eligible or certified general surgeons. It consists of eight months training at Loma Linda University Health (LLUH) in Loma Linda, California, 3 months of guidance and experience at Malamulo Adventist Hospital (MAH) in Malawi, Africa, and 1 month instruction in orthopedics at Hôpital Adventiste d'Haïti, in Port-au-Prince, Haiti. The fellowship training at LLUH will consist of rotations and case log completion in Obstetrics/Gynecology, Urology, Orthopedics, and Trauma, as well as Anesthesia, Neurosurgery, Pediatric Surgery, ENT, Plastic Surgery, Wound Care, Dentistry and Preventative Medicine. The fellow will complete at least one research paper focusing on a topic in Global Surgery. LLUH is uniquely equipped for the GSF with its strong history of international service and its direct connection to a wide network of hospitals in low and middle income countries. This modus operandi of mission focus is evident in the multidisciplinary enthusiasm and support for the Department of Surgery’s Global Surgery Fellowship. The fellowship program director, Dr. Ryan Hayton, and assistant program director, Dr. Carlos Garberoglio, have a continued interest in meeting the global needs of surgery based on their real experience in providing surgical care in low-resource environments. </p><h2>How to apply</h2><p>Applicants must have completed an ACGME approved general surgery residency by June 30, 2024 and be American Board of Surgery certified or eligible.

There are several tracks that will be discussed below under the “duration and scope of training” section, and this includes our AAST-certified “Acute Care Surgery” program as well. The fellowship is designed to educate fellows in all phases of care of the critically ill and injured surgical patient. Our training philosophy can be divided into several discrete areas including clinical training, research, academic framework, and trauma community integration. The clinical training is focused on cutting-edge, evidenced-based experiences in trauma, emergency general surgery (acute care surgery) & surgical critical care. Fellows will complete the program with not only top notch technical expertise, but with the strongest command of all care strategies and theory. Fellows have clearly defined training goals and objectives with the highest attention to their educational experiences. Roles and responsibilities are clearly differentiated from the resident learners so there is minimal overlap. Research opportunities abound at PENN, both within the division and in the very collaborative broader University of Pennsylvania community. Fellows acquire research mentors early who then ensure milestones are achieved resulting in successful completion of projects by fellowship end. Beyond the individual projects, all fellows participate in a continual research didactic series that provides all the building blocks to join or initiate a basic science or clinical research program at their next job. Fellows will also leave our training program with a solid academic framework or understanding of how to establish themselves as an academic surgeon. This framework includes an understanding of choosing and obtaining growth and leadership opportunities locally and in external national and international societies. Formal administrative didactics and personalized exposure to our world-renowned faculty facilitates this exposure. Fellow integration into the broader trauma and critical care community is facilitated by the large network of PENN trained acute care surgeons practicing around the world. This vast network exposes current and past trainees to the experience and mentoring of this academic faculty along with opportunities to collegially collaborate on a multitude of academic levels. History The PENN trauma training program was founded by C. William Schwab, MD in 1989. Since that time, over 160 fellows have completed the program and are now practicing around the world. Among this cohort are leaders in American Medicine including Deans, Chief Executive Officers, Chairs of Departments, Division Chiefs, Trauma Directors, ICU directors, and many other prestigious titles (Graduate Career Paths - Penn Medicine). This legacy of past trainees is a testament to vision and ideals created by Dr. Schwab that are now carried down and instilled in all our trainees. Of particular note is our strong history and commitment to training military trauma surgeons. Starting with Dr. Schwab who himself spent many years as a Naval surgeon, there have been over 30 military surgeons in the PENN trauma faculty and fellowship program.

The Division of Trauma Anesthesiology is one of the only groups of anesthesiologists in the country with a practice focused specifically on traumatic injury, personally seeing each admission to the trauma bay on patient arrival. Our clinical practice incorporates acute pain management, regional anesthesia, intensive care medicine, echocardiography and long-term follow up care of patients after injury. Fellow rotations may also include pre-hospital ground and air retrieval, Multitrauma and Neurotrauma ICU coverage, Trauma Radiology, and Focused Assessment with Sonography in Trauma. An anesthesiologist is present at every patient's admission to the Shock Trauma Center to assess and manage the airway, and to facilitate early pain control. Venous access, transfusion and acute resuscitation may also be initiated. An Attending Anesthesiologist is available in-house 24 hours a day for emergency airway management in the ICUs, for conscious sedation procedures, for bedside procedures on ECMO patients, and for comprehensive perioperative care in the TRU, OR, and PACU. All of the surgeons at Shock Trauma are specifically trained in trauma (e.g. surgery, orthopedics), as are the nurses and the technicians. The Division of Trauma Anesthesiology includes 14 full-time attending anesthesiologists (5 with additional board certification in critical care, 2 cardiac anesthesiologists, the Director of Regional Anesthesia at the University of Maryland, 2 United States Air Force (USAF) anesthesiologists and 2 part-time anesthesiologists, along with 25 CRNAs, performing more than 6,000 anesthetics each year. We enjoy a collaborative practice with all specialties at the trauma center due to our singular focus: rescue of the patient from the brink of death and restoration to a meaningful, productive life. Education and Training In the 1980's, Shock Trauma began the first Fellowship in Trauma Anesthesia in the U.S. Our fellows are U.S. civilian and U.K. military clinicians, and the Division also trains 25 to 30 anesthesia residents each year, rotating in one-month blocks from the University of Maryland, the armed services, and visiting residents from across the country. Forty eight residents in emergency medicine and fellows in pulmonary/critical care and trauma surgery/critical care also gain their airway training through us. In addition, we are responsible for the annual training of 50 Maryland State Police flight paramedics and for 50 student nurse anesthetists. Finally, representatives of the Division also train and supervise the nurses of the Acute Pain Management Service, providing advanced pain management modalities for more than 1500 patients each year. Anesthesiologists from the Division teach University of Maryland medical students in a “hands-on” airway management course in the third year, and again as they rotate through the STC during their anesthesia training. The exposure that paramedics, nurses, medical students, residents, fellows and the military gain at Shock Trauma to severely traumatized airways and to emergency management of the airway ensures that each patient these providers treat in the future will undergo the best possible care. The USAF and the University of Maryland have a long standing partnership to integrate active duty anesthesiologists and CRNAs into the Division of Trauma Anesthesiology. While stationed at the USAF's Center for the Sustainment of Trauma and Readiness Skills (C-STARS), Baltimore, the active duty anesthesiologists and CRNAs are embedded with the civilian faculty. Working side-by-side with the expert civilian Anesthesia staff, the military personnel gain the critical clinical experience and academic support while learning from the world's leaders in anesthesia and resuscitation. This partnership allows the USAF to train over 300 medical personnel from bases around the world, translating into vital airway, anesthesia and resuscitation management for our injured and ill wounded warriors. Simulation training is also an integral part of our educational program. A monthly simulation course of high risk challenging scenarios, conducted in a 10,000 square foot state-of-the-art Simulation Center, is taught by the faculty to airway and anesthesia rotators. From the control room, faculty observe participants and discuss lessons during post-simulation debrief meetings. Fellows are involved initially as participants in the simulation course and are transitioned to teaching roles to become leaders in trauma medicine. Research The discovery and promulgation of new and better ways of caring for injured patients is a core tenant of the Shock Trauma Center. Research endeavors of the Division of Trauma Anesthesiology include studies of airway management techniques and protocols, anesthetic drug selection, advanced resuscitation techniques for patients in hemorrhagic shock, and non-surgical approaches to hemostasis. Ongoing IRB-approved studies that our faculty lead are investigating pre-hospital resuscitation and transport; trauma team dynamics; multiple-organ failure in damage control orthopedic patients; predictors of chronic pain in patients after orthopedic trauma; and long term physical, emotional and financial needs of patients after injury. Our anesthesiologists are critical to the management of patients with retrograde endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) and those enrolled in the NIH-funded Emergency Preservation Resuscitation (EPR) trial. In the field of intensive care medicine, members of the Division have presented and published work on advanced ventilator management, continuous renal replacement therapies, transesophageal echocardiography, and extra-corporeal circulation. The Anesthesiologists and CRNAs of the Division are the acknowledged national experts on anesthesia for trauma care, are sought out for textbook chapters, review papers and research publications in the Anesthesia, Surgical, and Critical Care arenas, and serve as invited speakers at local, national, and international conferences on a regular basis. </p><h2>How to apply</h2><p>Please visit our website: https://www.medschool.umaryland.edu/anesthesiology/education/fellowship/trauma-anesthesiology/how-to-apply/ Email or mail a current curriculum vitae for an application leah.n.smith@som.umaryland.edu and/or bconti@som.umaryland.edu Bianca Conti, MD c/o Leah Smith R Adams Cowley Shock Trauma Center University of Maryland Medical System 22 South Greene Street T3N44 Baltimore, MD 21201-1595</p><h2>Location</h2>22 S.

We admit over 600 patients annually and treat thousands more as outpatients, giving trainees the patient volume to prepare for a full-time career as a burn surgeon. Our adult volumes are combined with pediatric burn care experiences that result from our collaboration with Children’s National Hospital. Successful applicants will be BC or BE in General Surgery or Plastic Surgery (may also be BE/BC on SCC). Upon completion of the one-year burn fellowship, the trainee, if meeting the ACGME-accredited Surgical Critical Care fellowship requirements, may elect to complete a second year in the MWHC Surgical Critical Care Fellowship. This will allow the trainee to sit for the American Board of Surgery Examination in Surgical Critical Care. The trainee will acquire in-depth experience in the management of the entire spectrum of burn and complex wound care. Fellowship training will include direct experience in acute resuscitation, critical care management, surgical management of acute burns, nutrition, physical rehabilitation, long term reconstruction, psychological therapy, and novel wound care techniques in adult and pediatric burn patients. The fellow will also manage and participate in other patient care, including desquamating skin diseases, complex traumatic wounds, and general wound care. Fellows will work with a multidisciplinary team including medical students, residents, nurses, advanced practice providers, respiratory therapists, physical and occupational therapists, and a burn psychologist. The MWHC Burn Center provides research, education, and outreach opportunities using an established and productive framework that includes opportunities such as journal clubs, morbidity and mortality conferences, burn CME conference, multidisciplinary rounding and meetings, resident teaching conference, and local/regional meetings. The program will facilitate Advanced Burn Life Support (ABLS) and ABA Fellowship In Training (FIT) certification during the course of their fellowship. The trainee will also be given an opportunity to participate in research, submit an abstract, and present at a national meeting. </p><h2>How to apply</h2><p>TheBurnCenter@medstar.net</p><h2>Location</h2>110 Irving St NW<br />Washington, DC 20010<br />United States2025-02-06T08:20:59-06:00http://www.east.org/extranet/fellowship/fellowshipdetails/37http://www.east.org/extranet/fellowship/fellowshipdetails/37<h2>Houston, TX</h2><h3>The Red Duke Trauma Institute at Memorial Hermann Hospital</h3><p>The University of Texas Health Science Center (UTHSC) is one of only two ACS-verified level 1-trauma centers serving Houston, Texas, the fourth largest city in the United States. The trauma center and main teaching institution is located at Memorial Hermann Hospital, an 1000-bed facility within Texas Medical Center. It is home of Life Flight aero-medical services and the John S. Dunn Helistop, the busiest heliport in the United States for its size. UTHSC admits well over 9,000 trauma patients annually with the most severely injured cared for in the 20-bed Shock-Trauma ICU (STICU). The fellowship was initiated in 1994 and currently supports three (3) Acute Care Surgery and Surgical Critical Care Fellows and one (1) Clinical Trauma Fellow. The Acute Care Surgery Division has eleven (11) faculty members. The majority of the Surgical Critical Care year is spent in the STICU, allowing exposure to a wide variety of severely injured patients, often with multiple co-morbid conditions. Additionally, the STICU serves as the highest level of care for critically ill patients from general surgery services, head and neck surgery, and obstetrics and gynecology. Our Shock-Trauma ICU cares for >1000 patients a year, with the fellow directing the care of these patients under the mentorship and guidance of the board-certified SCC faculty. A fellow will spend about 6 months in the Shock-Trauma ICU with electives available in the Burn ICU, MICU, Advanced Airway, Critical Care Ultrasound, Mentored-Research, PICU, and Neuro-ICU. Fellows become quite proficient in bronchoscopy, endoscopy, percutaneous tracheostomy, etc. As for the AAST/Acute Care Surgery component, there are several months spent on Trauma, with others on Cardiac/Vascular, EMS/prehospital trauma systems, and Emergency General Surgery. Elective options include Ortho Trauma, Interventional Radiology, Burn Surgery, HPB/transplant, and additional Cardiac/Vascular time. The fellows do trauma, EGS and ICU cases. While they do not do significant elective stuff, they do have elective gallbladders that come back through EGS, ostomy takedowns, and abdominal wall reconstructions that come back. Previous ACS Fellows have logged well 400+ cases during the two years with us. Most ACS fellows log 100+ major trauma cases in their first year (not trachs, PEGs, take backs, or washouts, but real cases). In addition, most fellows will graduate with over 80 vascular, over 70 thoracic, and countless trauma laps. The trauma team performed over 270 emergent laparotomies (Trauma Bay directly to the OR) in 2020 and over 250 vascular trauma cases. Critical reviews of research and the medical literature form an integral part of the daily ICU bedside teaching rounds and didactic conferences. Each Monday both administrative and research issues are addressed at the Trauma/Critical Care Faculty Meeting. In addition, changes in practice and proposed research topics are discussed in detail at the monthly Practice Management Guidelines meeting. Recently implemented Surgical Critical Care Conference and the Trauma Operative Conference deliver Grand Rounds-quality lectures by the institution‘s (and visiting) Faculty that are aimed specifically at "fellow-level" education (PGY-6 and above). The SCC resident is expected to deliver at least one Grand Rounds lecture throughout the year. The SCC resident is also encouraged to participate in ongoing projects and to develop their own research interests. Research time is made available on an individual basis to those residents who wish to further their own scientific investigations.</p><h2>How to apply</h2><p>Bryan A.

The Ross Tilley Burn Centre admits over 300 patients a year and sees over 2000 outpatients. This fellowship is designed to provide an integrated experience of ICU, operative, and reconstructive management of burn patients, complex wound patients, as well as SJS/TEN or other complex dermatologic patients. The candidate must have completed their residency in General or Plastic Surgery and be eligible to write the Board examination in their specialty. The candidate must have a strong interest in burns, trauma, and critical care. In association with the clinical fellowship we also offer cutting-edge research in a well-funded laboratory in association with the Sunnybrook Research Institute. The fellow will be taking responsibility for total care of the burn patient. This will include complete medical care, critical care, and surgical care of patients with acute burn injury. Progressive responsibility in follow-up care and post burn rehabilitation will be expected. There will be some opportunity to develop skills in post-burn reconstructive surgery, but the primary intention of the fellowship is to provide training in total acute and rehabilitative care of burn patients. Fellows will work under the supervision of the five burn surgeon-intensivists, and will be given progressively increased and graded responsibilities. Fellows are also expected to participate in day-to-day teaching of medical students and junior residents assigned to the burn centre. ----------- Facility Description: The Ross Tilley Burn Centre is a state-of-the-art facility providing tertiary care for the majority of burn injury patients in Ontario. We are the only program in the province that provides a wide range of services, from admission to follow-up and reconstructive surgery. We are the largest burn centre in Canada and admit an average of 300 patients annually. We are equipped with a dedicated intensive care unit and operating room. We are home to the only tissue bank in Ontario that stores temporary skin to treat major burn injuries. We also care for patients with NSTI and large/complex wounds. We admit every burn patient in Ontario who requires admission to a burn centre; this is crucial to burn care and avoids referral or transport delays across the province. Approximately 30 per cent of patients treated at the burn centre come from the Greater Toronto Area, and 70 per cent come from other areas of Ontario. The Ross Tilley Burn Centre was the first burn centre in Canada and the second outside the United States to be verified by the American Burn Association. Burn Centre Verification is a joint program of the American Burn Association (ABA) and the American College of Surgeons (ACS). A comprehensive burn program provides exceptional care. Our patient care team is made up of a group of highly skilled health-care professionals. This includes burn surgeons, nurses, a pharmacist, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, a physiatrist (rehabilitation physician), respiratory therapists, dietitian, social worker, speech language pathologist, psychiatry, geriatric physician, critical care physicians and other support staff. ----------- Hospital Beds: 575 Hospital ICU beds: 80 Burn ICU beds: 10 Burn floor beds: 4 Annual burn admits: 300 ----------- Faculty: Burn 5, Trauma 6 Number of burn procedures performed, on average, annually by fellow: 200 per fellow ----------- SCC Board eligible at completion of training (Yes/No): N/A (Canadian program) ACGME verification status: N/A (Canadian program) ABA verification status: verified</p><h2>How to apply</h2><p>All interested candidates should forward their CV and three references to: Marc Jeschke, MD PhD Director, Ross Tilley Burn Centre Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre 2075 Bayview Ave. Suite D704 Toronto, ONCANADA M4N 3M5 Fellowship Coordinator Name/Contact Information: Shahriar Shahrokhi MD FRCSC FACS Ross Tilley Burn Centre Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre 2075 Bayview Ave. Suite D716 Toronto, ON CANADA M4N 3M5 shar.shahrokhi@sunnybrook.ca </p><h2>Location</h2>Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre<br />Toronto, ON M4N 3M5<br />Canada2021-04-05T16:06:59-05:00http://www.east.org/extranet/fellowship/fellowshipdetails/1276http://www.east.org/extranet/fellowship/fellowshipdetails/1276<h2>Chicago, IL</h2><h3>The University of Chicago Medical Center</h3><p>The University of Chicago (U of C) is a tertiary care center located within Hyde Park, a neighborhood adjacent to Chicago’s South Side.

The fellow will be provided an in depth knowledge of therapeutic maneuvers and diagnostic modalities to manage the polytrauma patient, as well as the failing pre- and postoperative surgical patient. This will not only include the realm of general surgery, but will also include neurosurgical and cardiothoracic patients. The fellow is exposed to modalities such as CRRT, ECMO and TEE in our ICUs, in addition to more routine invasive hemodynamic monitoring and ventilator management strategies. The fellow has full responsibility as trauma team leader, gaining a broad range of experience in the management of blunt and penetrating trauma. The fellows become proficient in the evaluation of critically-ill and injured patients; the initiation and implementation of appropriate and complete diagnostic and therapeutic care plans; and providing leadership to facilitate the interaction within the entire team of caregivers and with the patients and their families. Fellowship Program Structure The critical care fellowship emphasizes clinical care. The trauma team evaluated just over 3700 traumas and just under 1000 burns for 2012. Inpatient admissions for trauma and burns were approximately 2300 and 500, respectively. The fellow has abundant clinical material to learn from with 56 total ICU beds (28 dedicated Trauma/Burn ICU beds, 8 Neurotrauma ICU beds, and 20 SICU beds) for our service line. In addition to a robust experience with Trauma, the SICU service provides critical care for the emergency general, elective general, ENT, OMFS, Ob/Gyn, Transplant, and Vascular patients (approximately 1500 patients/year). Approximately 25% of admitted trauma patient are penetrating trauma. Operative experience will be held within the maximum volume as stipulated by the ACGME. Successful completion of the SCC curriculum qualifies the fellow to take the ABS Surgical Critical Care Examination.

Research Opportunities The Vanderbilt Division of Trauma and Surgical Critical Care is committed to research training of Surgical Critical Care and Acute Care Surgery fellows. Fellows are strongly encouraged to participate in all aspects of the Division’s research programs and are provided significant resources to do so. The Division of Trauma and Surgical Critical Care has an active clinical and translational research program that includes government and contract funded projects as well as numerous investigator initiated projects. To support these research initiatives and research education for the fellows, the Division maintains a significant research platform, the components of which include clinical volume, informatics and database support, research support personnel, established collaborative research programs, laboratory space and equipment, and research training curricula. Each of these components will be summarized in the section below. Clinical volume: A large volume of critically ill and injured patients provides access to significant clinical data. VUMC is a Level 1 Trauma Center with a dedicated 31 bed trauma unit providing care for a 65,000 sq. mile area and admits greater than 3800 adult trauma patients per year. A 21 bed Surgical ICU provides critical care management to greater than 1300 critically ill general, oncologic, vascular, thoracic, head and neck, and transplant surgical patients. The Burn Unit admits roughly 400 patients per year with greater than 20% total body surface area burns. Informatics and database support: The Division of Trauma and Surgical Critical Care’s research program benefits from world class informatics support and a variety of databases and repositories. An institutionally developed computerized medical record provides the opportunity to prospectively capture pre-defined, validated data-fields on a large volume of patients. This has enabled the creation of an ICU database that prospectively captures severity scoring, diagnoses, outcome, infection, and therapeutic data on a large volume of patients. The Division has developed and implemented continuous physiologic data capture (SIMON) that contains greater than 650,000 hours of data on over 7000 patients since 2001. Genetic sampling of all trauma unit admissions began in 2005 and has accrued greater than 5200 patients. The Division has also maintained a trauma registry (TRACS) since 1984 and contains greater than 55,000 patient records. The Division’s database and statistical processing is supported by 3 dual processor Xeon systems dedicated to research purposes. Additional computer and informatics support is available through Vanderbilt’s Bioinformatics core. Additionally, the Advanced Computing Center for Research and Education (ACCRE) provides high-performance computing support to computational studies across campus and is available to fellows as needed. All fellows are provided with desktop computers with Microsoft Office 2007, SPSS, and reference manager programs. Research support personnel: Three full time research coordinators provide regulatory, educational and data acquisition support. Judy Jenkins, RN has been the lead coordinator since 1995 and supports training in human subjects research, IRB applications, research design, database development, and HIPPA compliance. Patrick Norris, PhD is also a full time member of the Division and supports database construction, data merging, data cleaning, data transformation, and statistical analysis. The Section of Surgical Sciences employs a full time biostatistician to provide statistical support. Established collaborative research programs: The Division of Trauma and Surgical Critical Care has several formalized collaborative research initiatives with research centers within Vanderbilt University including 1) the Center for Human Genetics Research, 2) the Center for Health Services Research and 3) the Centers for Lung Research and Clinical Proteomics. 1) Center for Human Genetics Research (CHGR): this center was initiated in 1997 to advance human genetic research at Vanderbilt. The Division has established formalized and federally funded collaboration with this Center and with Jeff Canter, MD, MPH. The central theme of this collaboration between the Division of Trauma and Surgical Critical Care and the CHGR is to increase the understanding of how genetics influence complex responses to injury in the setting of variable environmental exposures. This encompasses research at the molecular, clinical, and population levels and is performed by faculty in multiple departments and schools, utilizing complex analytic statistical techniques such as Multifactor Dimensionality Reduction (MDR) analysis. The VUMC DNA Resources Core provides services in extraction and banking of DNA as well as high-throughput genotyping. 2) Center for Health Services Research (CHSR): fellows’ research training in clinical and outcomes research is supported by a collaborative relationship with Robert Dittus, MD, MPH, Director of Vanderbilt’s Institute for Medicine and Public Health and of the CHSR. The CHSR has greater than $100 million in active research funding and greater than 100 full time faculty members. Dr. David Penson has recently been recruited as the Director of the Center for Surgical Quality and Outcomes Research (within the CHSR) and the Division’s collaboration will fall within this center. 3) Centers for Lung Research and Clinical Proteomics: the Division has on-going federally funded research collaborations investigating biomarkers in acute lung injury with Dr. Lorraine Ware. Dr. Ware is a faculty member within Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine and a member of the Center for Lung Research. This specific research initiative, funded through the Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute of the NIH links the Center for Lung Research and Clinical Proteomics to create panels for the diagnosis and management of lung injury. Laboratory space and equipment: The Division of Trauma and Surgical Critical Care maintains laboratory space to support clinical, translational, and basic research. This 400 sq ft lab space located in Medical Center North has a – 70 degree freezer, equipment for specimen handling and transfer, and equipment of ELISA and EIA tests and has direct access to several research core facilities. Patrick Norris has a 300 sq ft office, the research coordinators a 400 sq ft office, and each fellow has a dedicated office space. Research training curricula: Fellows have the opportunity to matriculate in biostatistical courses within either the MSCI or the MPH programs during their first or second year. Qualified fellows with significant interest in strengthening their research skills and obtaining Masters Degrees in Public Health, Clinical Investigation, or Bioinformatics may enter the clinical and translational research training program. This program is a collaborative interface between the Division of Trauma and Surgical Critical Care’s current research and quality infrastructure with Vanderbilt’s Institute for Clinical and Translational Research (supported by a NIH-Clinical and Translational Science Award), Vanderbilt’s Quality Scholars program, and the Center for Clinical Improvement. The Division of Trauma and Surgical Critical Care has substantial on-going clinical, outcomes, translational research and quality related initiatives and has demonstrated a successful track record of resident and fellow training within these areas (fellow’s publications available on website).</p><h2>How to apply</h2><p>Addison K.
