Because sports medicine is a rapidly expanding field within many specialties, it is important to gauge how active physiatrists have become in this arena. A nationwide survey of program directors and chief residents of physical medicine and rehabilitation residency programs was conducted to determine such prevalence. For the purposes of this study, sports medicine was defined as the routine care of athletes involved in organized sporting activities at any level of competition. Questionnaires were mailed to program directors and chief residents with response rates of 79.7% each. Overall, correlation of the answers between groups was high. The level of interest of residents was rated at 46%. Data was also obtained regarding research, clinical rotations, lectures, fellowships, association with academic departments of other specialties, and affiliations with professional sports medicine organizations. The actual level of educational opportunities available was much lower than might be expected given the high level of interest expressed. It is reasonable to conclude that more opportunities should exist for education in sports medicine.
由于运动医学在许多专业领域中是一个迅速发展的领域，衡量物理医学与康复住院医师培训项目中的物理治疗师在这个领域的活跃程度很重要。我们对物理医学与康复住院医师培训项目的项目主任和住院总医师进行了一项全国性调查，以确定这种普遍性。在本研究中，运动医学被定义为对参与任何竞赛水平的有组织体育活动的运动员进行常规护理。问卷被邮寄给项目主任和住院总医师，每组的回复率均为79.7%。总体而言，两组答案之间的相关性很高。住院医师的兴趣水平被评为46%。还获得了有关研究、临床轮转、讲座、奖学金、与其他专业学术部门的关联以及与专业运动医学组织的附属关系的数据。考虑到所表达的高兴趣水平，实际可获得的教育机会水平远低于预期。有理由得出结论，运动医学教育应该有更多的机会。
