Had the pleasure of being the Chief Registration Officer for the Malaysian Students’ Surgical Symposium 2022 & moderator for the forum ‘Stepping Stones towards Becoming a Surgeon’.

Grateful for the opportunity & hope the conversations we had will inspire many budding surgeons.

I studied in residency by reading up on my patients’ diagnoses and treatments. Sticks so much more when the learning is tied to a patient under your care. Only time I did more than this was before boards.

🧵regarding the technique of 2-handed knot tying:

This one is for students and 1st-year residents. 2-handed tying is becoming a lost art in surgery, but I believe it is important to learn.

We'll start here with just the basic steps. More advanced concepts will come later.

🧵regarding the Aberdeen knot:

a surgical knot that may be used to secure a continuous suture. It is thought to be more secure than a square knot.

We will cover how to do it, what *not* to do, and also a little-known modification that may make it even more secure.

Just because improvements aren't visible doesn't mean they aren't happening.

You're not going to see the number change each time you step on the scale. You're not going to finish a chapter each time you sit down to write.

Early wins come easy. Lasting wins require a lifestyle

HO teaching time!

Kenapa kalau patients on HD kita transfuse during HD?

Apa yang kita takut actually? Why are we very judicious in transfusing in an ESRF patient? Especially if not on regular dialysis?

Among common reasons why capable registrars unable to pass exit exam. My advice to all final yr candidates, treat daily task and presentation like final exams. Present in full / proper english, imagine the consultants as our examiners. Write in clinical notes using full language
