مستخلص: This study explores the efficacy of an intern's clinical guidebook in facilitating the transition of categorical internal medicine interns into the United States healthcare system. New interns, particularly foreign medical graduates, face multifaceted challenges during their initial year of residency. The research, conducted at Ascension Saint Joseph Hospital in Chicago, employed a quasi-experimental pre-post design involving 20 interns. Participants were provided with an intern's clinical guidebook, and their knowledge was assessed through pre and post exams. Results demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in overall knowledge, with mean scores increasing from 65% to 77.37%. Subgroup analysis revealed similar improvements among both male and female interns. Data confidentiality and ethical considerations were prioritized, with participant data anonymized and stored securely. Despite limitations, this study highlights the guidebook's potential to enhance intern education and improve the quality of care provided during the crucial transition period. Further research is recommended to validate and extend these findings.
