Introduction.

given the persistence of a CoVID-19 pandemic, medical education was also adapted to new didactic tools to consolidate basic training standards. The main objective was to describe and analyze the characteristics of surgery hybrid learning and assess their acceptance by students with an anonymous survey of satisfaction.

Subjects and methods.

Descriptive, cross-sectional observational design with hybrid learning surgery in a state university hospital between August 30 and October 22, 2021. The students attended for 2 hours / day, 2 times a week for their face-to-face practical activities. The theoretical classes were previously recorded with duration of 2 to 5 hours per class day by using a Moodle Platform installed in the Campus of Medical Sciences. Such facility was available without restrictions any time at all. The course lasted a total of 8 weeks, with 4 working days a week, an hourly load of 150 hours and an average of 30 students for each commission (in total 6 commissions, subdivided into 2 each). Partial evaluations thru of writing a clinical History on defined topic and alternatively multiple choice exam were offered. Regularity with 80% presentism and approval of partial exams were considered Final exam with medical history and multiple choice exam. Anonymous and voluntary satisfaction evaluation survey.

Results.

47 students completed the surveys; 100% considered that the learning objectives proposed were expressly met. Orderly, systematic and accessible thematic organization for 80.5% with new knowledge for 100% and learning approach stimulating study were considered; 100% thought that the concepts acquired will be useful in their professional future. Teacher-student interactivity in this mentioned modality was recognized by 95.7%.

Conclusion.

Results and design of the survey showed strengths of this hybrid learning strategy. It allowed to incorporate basic knowledge thru internet and the face-to-face practical activity was very motivating, mainly during the visits to the observer facilities of the operating rooms. Among the weaknesses, the absence of the space for debate and regarding doubts while of observing virtual classes and the few occasions of watching from the observing platforms of the operating rooms were considered.
