Abstract Body : INTRODUCTION. A report of a comprehensive clinical anatomy review elective for M4, including feedback from participants across several residencies of interest. This elective is offered each year, though this report is based on the last two years. RESOURCES. Two donors, prosections, models and bones, iPads, online and hardcopy resources (dissection instructions, atlases, and textbooks), BodyViz, POCUS, Harvey®, and Anatomage table. Preceptors included clinical and pre-clinical instructors. DESCRIPTION. Multifaceted teaching methodologies were used in this two-week elective. Students began with an overview using prosections, digital media and models/bones, after which they dissected the region. Following the dissection, a preceptor led a seminar. The seminars were surgical procedure demonstrations eg. hysterectomy, cricotracheotomy, simulations eg Harvey®, POCUS, lectures, clinical skills, or 3D platforms eg. BodyViz, Anatomage table. Students were assessed on CanMED competencies such as professionalism, communication, collaboration, leadership, and medical expert. SIGNIFICANCE. Feedback from the student questionnaire was largely positive for example: “The integration of anatomy and its clinical correlation was a huge asset” “helped fill in some of our anatomy deficiencies due to COVID” “really remarkable opportunity to revisit and explore many of the challenging anatomy concepts from pre-clerkship” “Fantastic post CaRMS elective, and very helpful since we did not have much in-person anatomy due to COVID (thank you!)”, though some negatives were expressed eg “carpal tunnel releases & flaps were very plastic surgery focused and not generalized enough for other specialties”. Thus, the course was a successful comprehensive integrative and collaborative full-body review of clinical anatomy for M4.
