Board certification for a medical specialty was first proposed in 1908. Subsequently, the American Board of Medical Specialties (ABMS) was formed in 1933. The ABMS approved emergency medicine as the 23rd medical specialty in 1979. Since its inception, the American Board of Emergency Medicine (ABEM) has always had time-limited certification requiring a recertification examination every 10 years. The notion of recertification has since evolved into maintenance of certification (MOC). I define the various components of the ABEM MOC program. The MOC axioms of continuous professional development and adherence to quality development are discussed. Finally, physician participation in the ABEM MOC is reviewed.
专科医师委员会认证最早于 1908 年提出。随后,美国医学专业委员会(ABMS)于 1933 年成立。ABMS 于 1979 年批准急诊医学为第 23 个医学专业。自成立以来,美国急诊医师委员会(ABEM)一直采用限时认证,每 10 年需要进行一次再认证考试。再认证的概念后来演变为持续认证(MOC)。我定义了 ABEM MOC 计划的各个组成部分。讨论了 MOC 的持续专业发展和坚持质量发展的公理。最后,回顾了医师参与 ABEM MOC 的情况。
