Research During Pediatric Residency Training: Outcome of a Senior Resident Block Rotation

Abstract

A dedicated academic rotation that includes protected time, senior faculty mentorship, and program funding, can lead to productive research accomplishments by pediatric residents. Support of academic work during residency training may encourage engagement in a variety of academically oriented activities.

Teaching Lifelong Research Skills in Residency: Implementation and Outcome of a Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Course

“…1 To accomplish these goals, many programs have developed longitudinal research curricula [2][3][4][5][6][7] and/or research tracks. [8][9][10] Approaches described in the literature vary in the amount of devoted research time, ranging from protected research blocks [11][12][13] to a dedicated research year. 14 Yet, programs continue to struggle to successfully integrate practical research experience into residency training.…”

How to Succeed in Research During Medical Training: A Qualitative Study

“…Previous studies of residents [4,6,7,[15][16][17], program directors [3,5,6,16], and research directors have identi ed other barriers to the successful completion of resident research projects [17]. Levine et al surveyed Internal Medicine program directors and residents who were presenting abstracts at the American College of Physicians' annual meeting [5,7].…”

Evaluación de la producción científica del Hospital General de Niños Pedro de Elizalde, 2000-2011

“…La introducción de actividades de investigación en la residencia aumenta la participación en actividades científicas, mejora las oportunidades para realizar nuevas especializaciones, promueve el interés en la carrera de investigación y motiva la búsqueda bibliográfica en bases de datos, complementando la capacitación profesional. 16,17 En nuestro hospital, desde 1996 se desarrolla un programa de capacitación en investigación para residentes, que ha mostrado interesantes logros; 18 incluso, es posible que haya tenido cierta responsabilidad en el incremento de la producción científica en los últimos 5 años registrados en este estudio.…”

“…Por diseño, 77,5% fueron observacionales y 22,5% experimentales. Por alcance, 69,1% fueron limitados al hospital, 16,6% multicéntricos internacionales y 14,1% multicéntricos nacionales. Solo 36,6% recibieron financiamiento.…”
