Editor's Notes
- European Union of Medical Specialists (EUMS) committed itself to contribute to the improvement of anesthesiology training at the European level through the development of the Anaesthesiology Training Guideline and Syllabus, to complement the content of postgraduate training defined by each country National Authority and ensure that high quality training is provided across Europe [1,2].
- “Group of Anaesthetists in Training” (GAT), initiated in 1967, and now with more than 3500 members. American Society of Anesthesiology - Resident Component (ASA-RC) was initiated in the U.S.A in 1988 to encourage anaesthesiology trainees’ participation in ASA activities
- The main concerns of the 363 anaesthesiology trainees who completed the questionnaire in descending order were “educational contents/EDAIC” (median=5; IQR=3-7), “residency costs” (median=5; IQR =3-6), “employment prospects” (median=4; IQR =3-5), “residency workload” (median=4; IQR =3-5), “exchange programmes” (median=4; IQR =2-5), “technical skills” (median=4; IQR =2-6) and “autonomy transition” (median=3; IQR =1-5). Therefore, the three main concerns were “educational contents/EDAIC”, “residency costs” and “employment prospects”. The graphic distribution of the medians for each concern among the considered regions (Figure 2) demonstrated that: “educational contents/EDAIC” was still the main concern for all four regions; “residency costs” were the second main concern except for the Eastern European region, despite having the same median as the second, third and fourth concern for that region; “employment prospects” was the third main concern for the Northern/Central European region, the second for the Eastern European region and the fourth main concern for the Southern and non-European regions (Figure 2). When analysed by region using the Kruskall-Wallis test, differences were found for: “educational contents/EDAIC” (higher concern for Eastern European and non-European regions; p=0.014), “residency costs” (lesser concern for Eastern European region; p=0.034), “residency workload” and “autonomy transition” (higher concerns for Southern and Northern/Central European regions; p=0.048 and p=0.002, respectively) (Figure 2). Although there were expected differences between European regions regarding their demographic characteristics, the concern with education/EDAIC was the most important for all of them and for the others, even if one concern was not the most important for a specific region, it still remained an important concern.
- According to the absolute number of trainees in each European country16, the authors considered that if a country had more than thirty anaesthesiology trainees that initiated the survey, these results could be representative of the trainees from that country. Portuguese Survey - In Portugal, for example, around 400 anaesthesiology trainees are working, but only 20% of these anaesthesiology trainees initiated the survey and 14% completed it.
- Immediate goal could be to improve its communication strategy with and for the trainees
