URO 404 - Urological Surgery Acting Internship The Acting Internship (AI) experience is designed to encourage senior medical students to assume patient care responsibilities similar to those of an intern (PGY-1 resident), including night call. This rotation will be offered to M4 students who are interested in a career in Urology. They will be expected to function at the intern level, helping the residents and chief manage the service. They will be expected to see inpatient and ED consults and to round on patients on a daily basis. Call will be every fourth night. Students will develop a broad knowledge base of the concepts of urologic disease and the practice of Urology in the hospital and outpatient setting. Emphasis will be placed on diagnostic procedures and treatment of patients with disease of the genitourinary organ system, male and female. Students will be responsible for assigned readings, carrying out diagnostic procedures, assist at surgery, and attending all departmental conferences where they will be expected to actively participate. Students will become familiar with the American Urological Association (AUA) website - National Medical Student Curriculum, specifically the Core Content (all 9 areas) and Uroradiology cases (all 6 cases).
