Abstract

BACKGROUND

Educators and medical students share the same objective of achieving success in medical practice. Both groups consider doctors' successes to include optimum patient care outcomes and positive career progressions. Accordingly, identifying common educational features of such high-achieving doctors facilitates the generation of excellence amongst future medical trainees. In this study we use data from the British clinical merit award schemes as outcome measures in order to identify medical school origins of doctors who have achieved national or international prominence.

METHODS

Britain has Clinical Excellence Awards/Distinction Awards schemes that financially reward all National Health Service doctors in England, Scotland and Wales who are classified as high achievers. We used these outcome measures in a quantitative observational analysis of the 2019-20 dataset of all 901 national award-winning doctors. Where appropriate, Pearson's Chi-Square test was applied.

RESULTS

The top five medical schools (London university medical schools, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Oxford and Cambridge) were responsible for 51.2% of the physician merit award-winners in the 2019-20 round, despite the dataset representing 85 medical schools. 91.4% of the physician merit award-winners were from European medical schools. The lowest national award-winners (tier 3) originated from 61 medical schools representing six continents. International medical graduates comprised 11.4% of all award-winners.

CONCLUSIONS

The majority of physicians who were national merit award-winners originated from only five, apparently overrepresented, UK university medical schools. In contrast, there was a greater diversity in medical school origin among the lower grade national merit awards; the largest number of international medical graduates were in these tier 3 awards (13.3%). As well as ranking educationally successful university medical schools, this study assists UK and international students, by providing a roadmap for rational decision making when selecting physician and non-physician medical education pathways that are more likely to fulfil their career ambitions.

摘要

背景

教育者和医学生有着相同的目标，即实现医学实践的成功。这两个群体都认为医生的成功包括最佳的患者护理结果和积极的职业发展。因此，确定这些高成就医生的共同教育特征有助于培养未来医学实习生的卓越能力。在这项研究中，我们使用英国临床卓越奖计划的数据作为结果衡量标准，以确定在全国或国际上享有盛誉的医生的医学院出身。

方法

英国有临床卓越奖/卓越奖计划，奖励英格兰、苏格兰和威尔士所有被评为高成就者的国民保健服务医生。我们在一项对 2019-20 年所有 901 名全国获奖医生的数据集的定量观察分析中使用了这些结果衡量标准。在适当的情况下，应用了 Pearson's Chi-Square 检验。

结果

前 5 名医学院（伦敦大学医学院、格拉斯哥、爱丁堡、牛津和剑桥）在 2019-20 年的轮次中占获奖医生的 51.2%，尽管该数据集代表了 85 所医学院。91.4%的医生卓越奖获得者来自欧洲医学院。最低级别的国家奖获得者（第 3 层）来自代表六大洲的 61 所医学院。国际医学毕业生占所有获奖者的 11.4%。

结论

大多数获得国家卓越奖的医生都来自英国五所明显超代表的大学医学院。相比之下，在较低级别的国家卓越奖中，医学院的出身更加多样化；在这些第 3 层奖项中，国际医学毕业生人数最多（13.3%）。除了对教育成功的大学医学院进行排名外，这项研究还通过为英国和国际学生提供在选择更有可能实现其职业抱负的医生和非医生医学教育途径时的理性决策的路线图，为学生提供了帮助。
