Objective: To determine the development of skills, knowledge, and trust levels in the field of open surgery among a group of undergraduate students enrolled in the medicine curricula who intend to undergo further training in a surgical specialty. Method: A quasi-experimental study with a pre-posttest design was performed upon a group of sixth-year medical students who intend to undergo surgical specialty training. All participants had previously received a 2-week theoretical and practical open-surgery skills training; previously validated evaluation methods were enforced. A paired sample T-test was used for this analysis. Results: Median pre-training score for the 13 basic skills was 28%, whereas post-training median score was 63%. During the surgical procedure, OSATS (Objective Structured Assessment of Technical Skills) method was applied, with average results of 70 ± 14%. Regarding self-confidence levels among participants, 60% of the participants referred as being slightly confident before undergoing training, as opposed to an 80% of students perceiving themselves as highly confident after completing training Conclusion: The implementation of skill training for undergraduate students could prove cost-effective in the medical environment, allowing surgeons-to-be to reach the necessary competences in less time in accordance to current
