AMERICAN BOARD OF SURGERY
美国外科委员会
The American Board of Surgery ( ABS) is an independent, nonprofit organization with the purpose of certifying individual surgeons who have met defined standards of education, training, and knowledge.
美国外科委员会是一个独立的、非盈利性质的组织,专门为达到既定教育、培训和知识水平的外科医生颁发证书。
The distinction between the ACGME and the ABS is that the ACGME accredits training programs, while the ABS certifies individuals.
毕业后医学教育认证委员会与美国外科委员会的区别就在于,前者对培训项目进行鉴定,而后者为个人颁发证书。
This distinction is similar for specialty boards in other disciplines as well.
对于其它专业委员来说也有类似分类。
The ABS also recertifies practicing surgeons and is making a fundamental philosophical change from periodic retesting for recertification to a more continuous maintenance of certification (MOC) plan.
美国外科委员会还会重新认证执业外科医师,目前正处于一个根本性的、理念上的变革阶段——从以往的定期再测试再认证过渡到可持续的认证维护。
The ACGME and the specialty boards interact.
毕业后医学教育认证委员会与专业委员会相互作用。
The success of individuals in achieving board certification is an important measure of graduate medical education program success, and the measures required for board certification must also reflect the education that is offered to individuals through their graduate medical education.
个人成功获得委员会的资格认证标志着(美国)医学研究生教育课程的成功,委员会使用的认证标准必须符合医学研究生的课程要求。
Thus, although these entities have different purposes, they must mesh their efforts constructively.
所以,尽管它们的功能不同,但也需要互相协调。
Board certification within a defined period after completing residency is necessary for privileging to perform surgery in many US hospitals.
委员会颁发的证书特许住院医生在实习期结束后的指定时间内在全美多家医院执行手术
Thus, the most straightforward route into surgical practice in the United States includes graduation from an LCME-accredited medical school, completion of an ACGME-accredited residency training program, and satisfactory completion of the Qualifying Examination (written boards) and Certifying Examination (oral boards) of the ABS.
所以,成为一名美国外科医生最直接的方式包括:毕业于医学教育联络委员会验证的医学院,完成毕业后医学教育认证委员所认定的住院医生实习项目,优异成绩通过美国外科委员会的资格考试(笔头)和毕业考试(口头)。
There are other entry points into surgical practice in the United States, most prominently by physicians who have graduated from medical schools in countries outside the United States and Canada.
还有一些其它途径,然而他们大部分是从美国和加拿大以外的学校毕业。
These graduates can be certified by the Educational Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates (ECFMG).
这些毕业生可以通过外国医科毕业生教育委员会拿到认证资格。
Once a graduate is certified by the ECFMG, he or she is eligible to train in an ACGME-approved residency training program and can thus be eligible for board certification.
一旦毕业生拿到认证资格,他或她就有了由外国医科毕业生教育委员会所认可的住院医生培训资格,也从而获得了委员会证书。
