UNASSIGNED: In response to a survey and feedback from paediatric trainees, a retrospective analysis was conducted to investigate the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on medical staff attendance at onsite training in the Department of Paediatrics at a regional hospital in Victoria. The study spanned from January 2019 to December 2021. Variables collected included the number of participants attending the paediatric clinical and education meetings. A comparative analysis of attendance during the pre-COVID-19 year (2019) and the COVID-19 years (2020-2021) was conducted.
UNASSIGNED: The total number of meetings held was 292 in 2019, which declined to 184 in 2020 and further declined to 171 in 2021, with a minimal increase in existing virtual meetings. The total attendance in paediatric clinical meetings dropped from 2190 attendees in 2019 to 1332 in 2020, and further declined to 1230 in 2021. Paediatric registrar attendance was 477 in 2019, which decreased by 29.35% to 330 in 2020 and further decreased by 38.57% to 293 in 2021. Paediatric hospital medical officer attendance showed the worst trend among paediatric trainees, with 445 attending clinical meetings in 2019 and decreasing by 50.78% to 219 in 2020 and a 52.58% decrease to 211 in 2021.
UNASSIGNED: The sudden outbreak of COVID-19 led to significant disruptions in medical education globally. This study showed a noticeable reduction in paediatric departmental clinical meetings and teaching sessions during the pandemic, as well as a significant decline in attendance by paediatric trainees and medical students. These findings confirm the experiences of paediatric trainees, who reported losing valuable teaching opportunities due to the pandemic and a demand for attention.
■针对儿科学员的调查和反馈,本研究进行了回顾性分析,以调查COVID-19大流行对维多利亚州一家地区医院儿科现场培训医务人员出勤的影响.该研究从2019年1月到2021年12月。收集的变量包括参加儿科临床和教育会议的参与者人数。对COVID-19年前(2019年)和COVID-19年(2020-2021年)的出勤率进行了比较分析。
■2019年举行的会议总数为292次,2020年下降到184次,2021年进一步下降到171次,现有虚拟会议的增加幅度很小。儿科临床会议的总出席人数从2019年的2190人下降到2020年的1332人,并在2021年进一步下降到1230人。2019年儿科登记员就诊人数为477人,2020年下降29.35%至330人,2021年进一步下降38.57%至293人。儿科医院医务人员的出勤率在儿科学员中表现最差,2019年参加临床会议445次,2020年下降50.78%至219次,2021年下降52.58%至211次。
■COVID-19的突然爆发导致全球医学教育严重中断。这项研究表明,大流行期间儿科临床会议和教学课程显着减少,以及儿科学员和医学生的出勤率大幅下降。这些发现证实了儿科、受训者的经验他们报告说,由于大流行和需要关注,他们失去了宝贵的教学机会。
