Abstract

Research among orthopaedic surgery residents provides numerous benefits, which include but are not limited to development of critical thinking skills, greater understanding of study design and statistical analysis, strengthened fellowship applications, networking, and the ability to practice evidence based medicine. Research has been increasingly emphasized among orthopaedic surgery residency directors, and residency programs have uniformly implemented protected research time into their formal clinical training. Despite this, there are few resources describing the ability to conduct research effectively during residency. The purpose of this review is to provide an outline for implementing a successful, productive, high-output, resident-centric, research infrastructure leveraging resources available at clinical orthopaedic surgery residencies.
