“…Methodologies (e.g., use of a written exam as criteria) used in different countries to select medical graduates for residency positions also varies [17]. The actual mechanism by which applicants end up in a particular anesthesiology residency varies greatly across the seven countries studied.…”

Little has been published comparing the graduate medical education training structure and requirements across multiple countries. The goal of this study was to summarize and compare the characteristics of anesthesiology training programs in the USA, UK, Canada, Japan, Brazil, Denmark, and Switzerland as a way to better understand efforts to train anesthesiologists in different countries.Two physicians trained in each of the seven countries (convenience sample) were interviewed using a semi-structured approach. The interview was facilitated by use of a predetermined questionnaire that included, for example, the duration of post-medical school training and national requirements for certain rotations, a number of cases, faculty supervision, national in-training written exams, and duty hour limits. These data were augmented by review of each country’s publicly available residency training documents as available on the internet.Post-medical school anesthesia residency duration varied: three years (Brazil), four years (USA), five years (Canada and Switzerland), six years (Japan and Denmark) to nine years (UK), as did the number of explicitly required clinical rotations of a defined duration: zero (Denmark), one (Switzerland and UK), four (Brazil), six (Canada), and 12 (USA). Minimum case requirements exist in the USA, Japan, and Brazil, but not in the other countries. National written exams taken during training exist for all countries studied except Japan and Denmark. The countries studied increasingly aim to have competency-based education with milestone assessments. Training duty hour limits also varied including for example 37 hours/week averaged over a one month with limitations on night duties (Denmark), a weekly average of 48 hours taken over a 17 week period (UK), 50 hours/week maximum (Switzerland), 60 hours/week maximum (Brazil), and 80 hours/week averaged over four weeks (USA).Some countries have highly structured training programs with multiple national requirements with training principally carried out at a home institution. Other countries have a more decentralized and unregulated approach with fewer (if any) specific case or rotation requirements, where the trainee creates his/her own customized training to meet broad objectives and goals. The countries studied have different national training requirements, unique duty hour rules and are at varying stages in transitioning to an outcome based model of residency.

“…En algunos países se agrega una simulación escrita de caso clínico y se pondera de modo particular el expediente académico de presentación. En el modelo anglosajón, aplicado en el Reino Unido, Suecia, Alemania, Austria, Bélgica, Irlanda, Países Bajos, Polonia y República Checa, se considera preferentemente la solicitud del candidato y la entrevista personal; los exámenes nacionales de conocimiento teórico no son prioritarios (Lobato et al, 2015).…”

Introducción: la formación en Psiquiatría tiene como primer desafío elegir los candidatos ideales para desempeñarse óptimamente como residentes, alcanzando las competencias necesarias para un posterior ejercicio de la especialidad. En general, no se cuenta con instrumentos específicos de selección de residentes, utilizándose diversas estrategias de elección de candidatos a la especialidad. El objetivo del presente estudio es identificar los atributos y los medios de selección que un grupo de académicos consideran necesarios al momento de seleccionar a los candidatos a sus programas de residencia en Psiquiatría. Metodología: se realizó una investigación cualitativa de tipo encuesta de percepción utilizando el Método Delphi. La encuesta se envió, por medio de una plataforma web, a todos los académicos del Departamento de Psiquiatría de la Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile (n=39). Resultados: los atributos mencionados fueron agrupados en 8 dominios. Las principales categorías identificadas por los encuestados fueron: profesionalismo (41%), motivación por la especialidad (33%), habilidades de comunicación (13%) y estabilidad psicológica (12%). El principal instrumento mencionado para evaluar los atributos de los postulantes fue la entrevista personal. Las publicaciones científicas, las notas de pregrado y las cartas de recomendación son mencionadas secundariamente. Conclusiones: el actuar profesional en la acción médica, medido como profesionalismo, en este estudio es atributo esencial en un postulante a un programa de residencia en Psiquiatría. Aunque las entrevistas personales han demostrado poco valor predictivo con el rendimiento del residente durante su formación, siguen siendo un instrumento muy requerido en los procesos de selección de residentes.

Europe-wide efforts are being initiated to define quality standards and harmonize Otolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery (ORL-HNS)-specialty-training by creating an European board examination. However, differences within and between countries remain and are underinvestigated making comparisons and further improvement more difficult. The study aimed at assessing quality of training, satisfaction and quality of life of residents and recent ORL-HNS specialists in Spain and to trace similarities and differences to France and Germany administering anonymous online-questionnaire to ORL-HNS-residents and recent specialists. 146 questionnaires were returned with answers of 75.6 % of residents, a mean age of 30 years and a female to male ratio of 1.46:1. The global satisfaction of training was high as 76 % would choose the same ENT training again, 86 % confirmed that responsibilities which were given to them were adapted to their level of training and 97 % felt well considered in their department. Ninety-two confirmed that helpful seniors contributed to a good work environment (75 %) and to a good organization within the department (69 %). The respondents spent on average 8.8 h per day at the hospital and covered on average 4.8 night duties or week-end shifts per month with mostly no post-day off (86 %). Seventy-four percent participated regularly at complementary training sessions. Research work was supported and guided in 59 %. This study is the first one, to our best of knowledge, to assess the ORL-HNS-training in Spain and to trace parallelisms and differences to other European countries, such as France and Germany. The satisfaction of training and supervision was high in Spain, but there are still efforts to make concerning resident's quality of life. Compared to France and Germany, satisfaction with ORL-HNS-training and the support and guidance provided by seniors was similar. Work conditions were comparable to those in France. Motivation, teaching and scientific output was higher in Spain, despite the salary being the lowest.
