Credit: 4 hours.

This sub-internship in urology provides students supervised responsibility of patient care. This rotation provides an opportunity to function at the level of an intern with close one-on-one attending supervision and support staff interaction. Sub interns will gain a more in depth understanding of principle urologic domains of knowledge as well as working competence in ambulatory evaluation and surgical treatment of the urologic patient. The sub intern will be exposed to all major disciplines in urology, including but not limited to, open and minimally invasive oncology, trauma/reconstructive procedures, voiding dysfunction, infertility and erectile dysfunction, robotic and minimally invasive procedures, and stones. Sub-interns will be involved in all aspects of urologic patient care: from initial presentation and work-up to discharge planning and follow-up. The sub intern will participate in operative cases under the direct supervision of an attending. Participation levels will vary depending on the procedure, the patient’s clinical condition, and the experience level of the student.

No graduate credit. 4 professional hours. Approved for S/U grading only. May be repeated in separate semesters to a maximum of 8 hours. Restricted to students enrolled in Phase 2 or Phase 3 of the Carle Illinois College of Medicine curriculum. Prerequisite: All Carle Illinois College of Medicine core clerkships; the 1-week urology elective during the surgery rotation or CLE 786 Introduction to Urology elective.
