- Abstract
Even though their calculations are conservative - leaving out the average number of 514 supervised procedures - those numbers add up to 1263 procedures during residency, which translates into a yearly number of 210 procedures per resident. Multiplying this yearly number by 14-17 residents per hospital (last number taken from the website of the author's institution), 2940-3570 procedures/year would be performed at the teaching institution.
