PURPOSE
The Health Policy Survey and Research Committee of the American Urological Association and the Gallup Organization have performed 10 surveys of American urologists since 1992 for the purpose of assessing demographics and practice patterns. The results of the 2003 survey are presented.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
A random sample of 510 urologists who have completed urological residencies was interviewed by telephone in February 2003. Major content areas were physician practice patterns, cryosurgery/brachytherapy, male infertility, female urology and insurance/ professional liability.
RESULTS
Urologists are older, staying in practice longer and planning to retire later than ever before. Urologists are also seeing more patients in the office every year. Most urologists treat male infertility and female voiding dysfunction.
CONCLUSIONS
American urologists are older, working harder and planning on continuing to do so for longer than in any year sampled in the last decade.
目的
自1992年以来，美国泌尿外科学会健康政策调查与研究委员会以及盖洛普组织已对美国泌尿外科医生进行了10次调查，旨在评估人口统计学特征和执业模式。本文呈现了2003年调查的结果。
材料与方法
2003年2月，通过电话对510名完成泌尿外科住院医师培训的泌尿外科医生进行了随机抽样访谈。主要内容领域包括医生执业模式、冷冻手术/近距离放射治疗、男性不育、女性泌尿外科以及保险/职业责任。
结果
泌尿外科医生比以往任何时候年龄更大，从业时间更长，且计划更晚退休。泌尿外科医生每年在门诊接待的患者也更多。大多数泌尿外科医生治疗男性不育和女性排尿功能障碍。
结论
与过去十年抽样调查的任何一年相比，美国泌尿外科医生年龄更大，工作更努力，并且计划继续如此工作更长时间。
