title: Role of grand rounds in the education of hospital doctors.
abstract: The educational role of grand rounds in continuing medical education of junior hospital doctors is unclear. In this article, the authors examine the benefit for junior doctors of attending grand rounds by assessing a groups' knowledge a week before, and 4 days after a grand round. The scores obtained were compared between pre- and post-grand round periods and between grand round attenders (fully or partly) and non-attenders.
