Description
Summary:CHIR-Net is a German national surgical network for clinical trials. It is supported by the Federal Ministry for Education and Research (BMBF 01GH0605) to establish infrastructure and expertise in the conduct of clinical trials within the surgical disciplines. An important aspect of this network is a qualified advanced training for physicians deployed at the CHIR-Net as part of a job rotation. A catalog of activities for the time of rotation within the network has been developed in cooperation with the CHIR-Net, the deployed physicians and cooperating regional clinical trials centers (ZKS/KKS). The focal points of the physicians' rotation in the CHIR-Net are outlined in a curriculum that has been established and evaluated in the network since January 2008. After the rotation time at the CHIR-Net the skilled physicians act as multipliers of specialized knowledge on clinical research. In this way the acquired expertise will be transferred into clinical practice and treatment of patients within research projects will benefit directly.
