Medical student surgical education
Scrub Prep
Walk into the OR better prepared with case overviews, practice questions, and quick review.
About Scrub Prep
Scrub Prep helps medical students prepare for surgical cases with focused case overviews, interactive questions, quick review, and a growing library of OR references. Whether you are starting your surgery clerkship or exploring a surgical specialty, it helps you build familiarity with what you will see and the questions you may be asked.
Choose a specialty, then enter the procedure you will be scrubbing on or tap a common case. Scrub Prep generates a student-level overview covering why the operation is performed, relevant anatomy, key operative steps, complications, and things to watch for in the OR.
Key features
- Case preparation: a student-level overview for the procedure you will scrub on
- Quiz Me: an interactive question-and-answer session tailored to your case
- Rapid Fire: short, focused questions for a few spare minutes before scrubbing
- Learn the OR: surgeon-reviewed references on first day etiquette, instruments, abbreviations, energy devices, positioning, and incisions
- Saved cases you can search, sort, filter by specialty, and annotate with your own notes
- Sources cited for each reference, collected on one Sources & References page
Who it is for
Medical students on surgery clerkships, and those exploring a surgical specialty.
Important notes
Scrub Prep is an educational tool. It does not provide patient-specific medical advice and does not replace clinical judgment, formal training, or supervision. Case preparations, Quiz Me, and Rapid Fire are AI-generated and may contain errors, so verify information with trusted medical references and your supervising team. Do not enter patient-identifying information.
