Hospitalists work in 90% of US hospitals with over 200 beds. With over 48,000 practicing hospitalists nationwide, the field of hospital medicine has grown rapidly in its 20 years of existence. Obstetrics and gynecology (OBGYN) hospitalists are uncovering similar drivers for their growth. Obstetricians cannot be in both the hospital and the office at the same time, they face an increased acuity of hospitalized patients demanding a full time presence, and hospitals are searching for physicians aligned with their goals. OBGYN hospitalists are at a similar point today at which hospital medicine was in the late 1990s.
在美国,90%拥有200张以上床位的医院都有住院医师。全国有超过48000名执业住院医师,医院医学领域在其存在的20年里发展迅速。妇产科住院医师也发现了类似的推动其发展的因素。产科医生无法同时兼顾医院和门诊工作,他们面临着住院患者病情日益严重,需要专人全天照料的情况,而且医院也在寻找与自身目标一致的医生。如今妇产科住院医师所处的阶段与20世纪90年代末医院医学所处的阶段类似。
