Dual-fellowship-trained surgeons specializing in both pediatric and sport medicine are treating an increasing number of pediatric orthopedic injuries, making pediatric orthopedic sports medicine a potential new emerging subspecialty. With fellowship training now being the norm rather than the exception across orthopedics, it is possible that dual-fellowship training may become a prerequisite for treatment of pediatric sports medicine patients. This may impact the practices of surgeons trained in either pediatric or sports medicine alone. As the trend toward dual-fellowship training is likely to continue, future studies are needed to characterize the impact it has on patient care and training patterns.
专攻儿科和运动医学的双专科培训外科医生正在治疗越来越多的儿科骨科损伤,使儿科骨科运动医学成为一个潜在的新兴亚专科。随着 fellowship 培训现在在骨科中已经成为常态而不是例外,双专科培训可能成为治疗儿科运动医学患者的先决条件。这可能会影响仅接受儿科或运动医学培训的外科医生的实践。由于双专科培训的趋势可能会继续下去,因此需要未来的研究来描述它对患者护理和培训模式的影响。
