Know what matters. Before you’re asked.
Preparing for a surgical case can be overwhelming when you’re still learning what to ask. ScrubIN gives medical students and surgical trainees a place to start—with focused references, case preparation, and guided practice.
PREPARE BEFORE YOU SCRUB
Review anatomy, operative steps, pearls, pitfalls, and questions an attending may ask. Choose your role and the time you have to focus your preparation.
FIND THE ESSENTIALS
Search for a procedure, complication, anatomy term, or surgical topic. Open concise references with source information, then explore the details you need.
PRACTICE YOUR REASONING
Work through surgical case decisions and consider why an answer fits. Selected cases include Socratic prompts, optional hints, and follow-up questions that encourage you to explain your thinking.
MAKE SMALL WINDOWS COUNT
Use a few minutes between cases, while traveling, or during downtime on a rotation. Short learning sessions make it easier to fit preparation and practice into your day.
KNOW WHERE TO START TODAY
Follow organized learning pathways or open your daily plan for a focused next step. Return to missed concepts and scheduled reviews. Track your activity and progress as you practice.
SWITCH INTO OR MODE
Prepare for a case, look up a reference, or practice a decision in a focused workspace. The initial pilot is free, including OR Mode. No purchase is required.
KEEP YOUR MATERIAL CLOSE
Save references, questions, and notes in one library. Check offline availability before heading somewhere with unreliable connectivity.
LEARN WITH CONTEXT
