Effect of Mentoring on Match Rank of Integrated Vascular Surgery Residents
Mentoring relationships have been encouraged for medical students interested in surgical specialties. We investigated the role of mentoring relationships of integrated Vascular Surgery residents, while in medical school. We hypothesized that mentoring relationships between medical students and vascular surgeons would have a positive effect on match outcome in the integrated vascular surgery residency match.

A national post-Match webinar panel improves knowledge and preparedness of medical students interested in vascular surgery training
The current shortage of vascular surgeons is projected to worsen. Compared with other surgical residency programs, integrated vascular surgery residency (IVSR) offers fewer training positions and attracts fewer applicants. As a result, only a few medical students from each school match into the specialty, and conventional resources like Match panels are not available to students interested in vascular surgery. We hypothesize that a national post-Match panel webinar will improve medical students' knowledge of the IVSR application process.

Poly-specialty Application Practices of Medical Students Applying to Integrated Vascular Surgery Residency
It is not uncommon for medical students seeking surgical residencies to apply to and rank two or more surgical specialties. Level of interest in a specialty is consistently cited as one of the most important factors for program directors when evaluating applicants for 0+5 integrated vascular surgery programs (IVS). The purpose of this study was to examine trends in poly-specialty application submission to IVS and poly-specialty ranking of IVS to determine the percentage of applicants to integrated vascular residencies with vascular surgery as their true preference.

Self-Perceived Comfort Performing Vascular Surgery Procedures Among Senior Vascular Surgery Trainees and Recent Graduates
: In the last two decades, vascular surgery training evolved from exclusively learning open skills to learning endovascular skills in addition to a functional reduction in training duration with 0+5 residency programs. The implications for this on trainee evolution to independence are unknown. We aimed to assess self-perceived comfort performing open and endovascular procedures and to identify predictors of high comfort among senior vascular surgery trainees and recent graduates.

Evaluating the Virtual Presence of Integrated Vascular Surgery Residencies in 2020 and Beyond: Are Programs Showing Future Vascular Surgeons What They Want to See?
This study seeks to evaluate the virtual presence of IVSRs and to determine if it emphasizes what is valued by future vascular surgeons.

Temporal Changes in Female Trainee Representation Within Differing Vascular Surgery Training Paradigms
Demographics of medical students have evolved over time and, in 2017, more than one-half of incoming medical students were female. It is unclear whether a similar evolution has been observed within the vascular surgery trainee pool and whether differences exist between vascular integrated residencies (VIRs) and vascular fellowships (VFs). The purpose of this study is to evaluate temporal changes in female representation among applicants and residents to VIRs and VFs.

Virtual Vascular Surgery Interest Group During the COVID-19 Pandemic
Early exposure to vascular surgery at the medical student level positively influences one ’s decision to apply into an integrated vascular surgery residency program. Vascular surgery interest groups (VSIGs) are student-run and aim to facilitate such exposure, traditionally via in-person events. Social distancing during the COVID-19 pandemic disrupted these interactions. This is a descr iption of the virtual activities of a VSIG group during the 2020-2021 academic year and highlights their impact among medical students.

A Survey of Vascular Surgery Program Directors: Perspectives Following USMLE Step 1 Conversion to Pass/Fail and Virtual Only Interviews
Step 1 of the United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE), a historically important factor in the selection of vascular surgery residents and fellows, transitioned to completely pass/fail on January 26, 2022. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, residency and fellowship interviews were conducted virtually during the 2020-21 and 2021-22 application cycles. Given these significant changes in the evaluation of candidates for residency training, we sought to understand vascular surgery program directors ’ perspectives regarding the change in Step 1 scoring and use of virtual interviews as well as determine which factors wil...

Current State of Integrated Vascular Surgery Residency Program Directors in the United States
Women in vascular surgery, especially those in leadership positions, are historically sparse but have the potential to make significant contributions to diversifying the future cohort of vascular surgeons. We aimed to analyze the current demographics of integrated vascular surgery residency (0 + 5) program directors (PDs) in the United States.

Integrated Vascular Surgery Residency: A Look at Electronic Residency Application Service Applicant Numbers and National Residency Matching Program Match Outcomes
In this study, we sought to identify the top U.S. domestic medical schools guiding seniors into 0+5 vascular surgery programs and ascertain which characteristics of their faculty and curriculum might be responsible for fostering this interest.

Perceptions of Integrated Vascular Surgery Fellowship Graduates Among Community Vascular Surgeons
Vascular training includes both integrated residency (“0+5”) and post-residency fellowship (“5+2”) programs. The impact of training models on attitudes toward graduates as prospective hires is incompletely understood, and existing studies have primarily surveyed surgeons from academic centers. We surveyed surgeons who were in active clinical practice but not affiliated with a medical school or training program to compare perceptions of integrated versus postgraduate programs.

Losing Exposure: Diminishing Revascularization Experience in General Surgery Residency
With the rising popularity of endovascular procedures, there is concern that vascular surgery trainees receive increasingly limited experience with open lower extremity revascularization procedures. The purpose of the study was to evaluate trends in open lower extremity revascularization procedures performed by general surgery residents and vascular surgery fellows over time. These trends were assessed alongside resident participation in endovascular revascularization procedures over time.

Open abdominal surgical training differences experienced by integrated vascular and general surgery residents
As the integrated vascular residency program reaches almost a decade of maturity, a common area of concern among trainees is the adequacy of open abdominal surgical training. It is our belief that although their overall exposure to open abdominal procedures has decreased, integrated vascular residents have an adequate and focused exposure to open aortic surgery during training.
