Studies of gender disparity in surgical training have yielded conflicting results. We hypothesize that there is no influence of gender on resident self-evaluation Milestone (SEM) scores and those assigned by the Clinical Competency Committee (CCC).
42 residents (25 male & 17 female) and faculty completed 300 Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) Milestone evaluations over a 4-year period. Two-way ANOVA, intraclass correlations coefficients, and general linear mixed models were used for analysis.
CCC Milestone scores from 150 evaluations, 51 (34%) for female residents and 99 (66%) for male residents, were compared to corresponding SEM scores. There is a high interrater reliability (self vs. CCC). There was a significant increase in scores with advancing PGY levels (p < 0.001). No effect of gender on Milestones scores (p > 0.05) was noted.
We found no significant differences in Milestones scores between male and female residents as determined by the CCC. Both scores improved significantly as residents progressed in training.
关于外科培训中性别差异的研究结果相互矛盾。我们假设,性别对住院医师自我评估里程碑(SEM)评分和临床能力委员会(CCC)分配的评分没有影响。
在 4 年的时间里,42 名住院医师(25 名男性和 17 名女性)和教师完成了 300 项美国毕业后医学教育认证委员会(ACGME)里程碑评估。使用双因素方差分析、组内相关系数和广义线性混合模型进行分析。
将 150 项评估中的 CCC 里程碑评分(51 项女性居民评分和 99 项男性居民评分)与相应的 SEM 评分进行比较。评分者之间具有高度的可靠性(自我评估与 CCC 评估)。PGY 水平的提高与评分的显著增加相关(p<0.001)。未发现性别对里程碑评分有影响(p>0.05)。
我们发现 CCC 确定的男性和女性住院医师在里程碑评分方面没有显著差异。随着住院医师培训的进展,两项评分均显著提高。
