OBJECTIVE
Otolaryngology residency applicants face challenges finding accurate information about training programs. Social media platforms are not verified, and official training program websites are not standardized. Currently, the American Medical Association's Fellowship and Residency Electronic Interactive Database (FREIDA) is the most comprehensive sanctioned and verified otolaryngology residency program database. However, the exact amount of information shared by individual programs included is not presently known.
METHODS
Herein, we analyzed the available data on all 124 otolaryngology residency programs in FREIDA to assess the completeness of the database.
RESULTS
While every program listed an address, contact email, and the name of the program director, more than half of programs ( = 65, 52.4%) did not provide additional information. Most programs (70.2%) did not include a one-paragraph program description.
CONCLUSION
Our findings suggest that while FREIDA is the only sanctioned online database for residency programs, it is inadequately populated with detailed program information.
LEVEL OF EVIDENCE
N/A.
目的
耳鼻喉科住院医师培训项目申请人在获取有关培训项目的准确信息方面面临挑战。社交媒体平台未经核实，而官方培训项目网站也未标准化。目前，美国医学协会的住院医师及专科医师培训电子互动数据库（FREIDA）是最全面的经认可和核实的耳鼻喉科住院医师培训项目数据库。然而，目前尚不清楚其中各个项目所共享的确切信息量。
方法
在此，我们分析了FREIDA中所有124个耳鼻喉科住院医师培训项目的可用数据，以评估该数据库的完整性。
结果
虽然每个项目都列出了地址、联系电子邮件和项目主任姓名，但超过一半的项目（n = 65，52.4%）未提供其他信息。大多数项目（70.2%）未包含一段项目描述。
结论
我们的研究结果表明，虽然FREIDA是住院医师培训项目唯一经认可的在线数据库，但其中详细的项目信息并不充分。
证据水平
无。
