We conducted a national survey of orthopaedic surgery residency program directors regarding resident attrition. Female residents had a statistically higher attrition rate than male residents (p < 0.001). The female early withdrawal residents left voluntarily and for personal reasons more often than their male counterparts. These tendencies, however, were not statistically significant. We feel that more in-depth counseling of female medical students and increased mentoring for women in orthopaedic residency could help prevent this attrition.
我们针对住院医师流失情况对骨科手术住院医师培训项目主任进行了一项全国性调查。女性住院医师的流失率在统计学上高于男性住院医师（p < 0.001）。与男性住院医师相比，女性提前退出培训的住院医师更常出于个人原因自愿离开。然而，这些倾向在统计学上并不显著。我们认为，对女医学生进行更深入的咨询以及增加对骨科住院医师中女性的指导，可能有助于防止这种流失。
