Invited speakerships, such as speaking at grand rounds, are part of the pathway to promotion in academic medicine. This project sought to evaluate if the gender of invited grand rounds speakers at a major academic institution were distributed as expected based on the specialty workforce.
Archived lists of speakers for grand rounds for the Mayo Clinic Department of Anesthesiology were obtained from 2007 through 2018. The Cochran-Armitage test and logistic regression models were used to analyze the change in proportion of invited women speakers over time. One-sample proportion tests were conducted to compare the proportion of women speakers to the expected percentage of available women speakers based on gender data from national organizations.
Of the 122 invited external speakers, 28 (23%) were women. Men invited 104/122 (85.2%) of all the speakers, of which 21 (20.2%) were women speakers. There was not significant evidence the proportion of women speakers increased over time ( = .29). Women speakers comprised a lower proportion of external invited speakers compared to the proportion of women in the academic anesthesia workforce; however, this association was not statistically significant ( = .07). The percentage of new residents that were female increased over this time period ( = .001).
The percentage of women invited to be grand rounds speakers did not increase over the study period. Intentional measures should be instituted to increase the proportion of women grand rounds speakers.
受邀演讲，如在大查房时发言，是学术医学晋升途径的一部分。本项目旨在评估一所主要学术机构受邀参加大查房的演讲者的性别分布是否符合基于专业劳动力的预期。
获取了梅奥诊所麻醉科2007年至2018年大查房演讲者的存档名单。采用 Cochr an - Armitage检验和逻辑回归模型分析受邀女性演讲者比例随时间的变化。进行单样本比例检验，以根据国家组织的性别数据将女性演讲者的比例与可用女性演讲者的预期百分比进行比较。
在122位受邀外部演讲者中，28位（23%）为女性。男性邀请了所有演讲者中的104/122（85.2%），其中21位（20.2%）为女性演讲者。没有显著证据表明女性演讲者的比例随时间增加（P = 0.29）。与学术麻醉劳动力中的女性比例相比，女性演讲者在外部受邀演讲者中所占比例较低；然而，这种关联在统计学上并不显著（P = 0.07）。在此期间，新住院医师中女性的比例有所增加（P = 0.001）。
在研究期间，受邀参加大查房的女性演讲者的比例没有增加。应采取有意措施提高女性大查房演讲者的比例。
