The Americas Hepato-Pancreato-Biliary Association (AHPBA) Education and Training Committee standardized a Hepatopancreatobiliary (HPB) Surgery Fellowship certification process in 2010. Several classes of fellows have since graduated from HPB, combined Society of Surgical Oncology/AHPBA, and combined American Society of Transplant Surgeons/AHPBA fellowships, but there is little information on their career outcomes. We seek to offer long-term data on the careers of HPB fellowship graduates.
A 26-question anonymous survey was distributed among graduates of accredited programs for the last 10 years. We generated descriptive statistics from the responses.
The respondents were evenly distributed in terms of graduation years between 2010 and 2019. Fifty-eight percent of fellows had completed a prior fellowship, 82% received 1 to 3 job offers during the fellowship, and 75% of respondents were still at their first job. The majority of graduates (>60%) were able to secure a job with a >50% HPB practice and >40 HPB cases per year within 3 years of graduation. Overall, >90% candidates rated their satisfaction with fellowship training greater than 8 out of 10.
This survey helps shed light on the early formative years in the practices of HPB fellowship graduates. These data show that HPB fellowship training is essential and effective in providing job security and helps fellowship graduates develop a gratifying practice.
美洲肝胆胰协会（AHPBA）教育与培训委员会于 2010 年规范了肝胆胰（HPB）外科住院医师培训认证流程。自那时以来，已有几批住院医师从 HPB、联合外科肿瘤学会/AHPBA 和联合美国移植外科医师协会/AHPBA 的联合奖学金项目毕业，但关于他们职业发展的信息却很少。我们旨在提供有关 HPB 奖学金毕业生职业发展的长期数据。
向过去 10 年毕业于认可项目的学员发放了一份 26 个问题的匿名调查。我们从回复中生成了描述性统计数据。
受访者在 2010 年至 2019 年毕业年份的分布均匀。58%的住院医师完成了之前的住院医师培训，82%的住院医师在培训期间收到了 1 到 3 份工作邀请，75%的住院医师仍在第一份工作中。大多数毕业生（>60%）能够在毕业后 3 年内找到一份>50%的 HPB 实践和>40 例 HPB 手术的工作。总的来说，>90%的候选人对其住院医师培训的满意度评价高于 10 分中的 8 分。
这项调查有助于了解 HPB 住院医师培训毕业生早期职业生涯的情况。这些数据表明，HPB 住院医师培训在提供工作保障方面是必不可少且有效的，并有助于住院医师培训毕业生发展出令人满意的实践。
