摘要：
Objective: This survey of Canadian general surgery residents was designed to determine their interest level, past experiences and awareness of opportunities in the field of international surgery. Methods: A web-based national survey in both French and English was sent to all Canadian general surgery residents. This survey comprised 24 questions regarding demographics, education, previous international experience, interest level and perceived opportunities in international surgery. Results: A 27% response rate revealed a high level of interest in international surgery among Canadian general surgery residents but a low level of awareness of the opportunities and relevant organizations. Conclusion: Further initiatives are needed to increase international surgery awareness and opportunities among general surgery residents.
