Abstract

OBJECTIVE

We aimed to investigate availability of lactation policy and facility information among surgical residency programs accredited by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME).

DESIGN

Between March 1, 2023 and October 31, 2023, websites of surgical residency training programs on the ACGME Accreditation System List of Programs by Specialty were reviewed for department lactation policies, links to institutional graduate medical education (GME) websites with lactation policies, lists of lactation facilities, and links to institutional GME websites listing lactation facilities. Scatter plots were generated and Pearson correlation coefficients were calculated to assess relationships of the percentages of female residents, fellows, and faculty in each surgical specialty with the percentage of residency program websites with available lactation information.

RESULTS

In total, 1847 websites were reviewed. Seventeen (0.9%) had lactation policies, 31 (1.7%) had lists of lactation facilities, 231 (12.5%) had links to institutional websites with lactation policies, and 295 (16.%) had links to institutional websites with lists of lactation facilities. The percentage of female residents and fellows and percentage of female faculty were positively correlated with the percentage of residency program websites with available lactation information.

CONCLUSION

Limited information on lactation policies and facilities is available to surgical residents.

获得 ACGME 认可的外科住院医师培训项目的哺乳政策和设施的可用性。

目的：我们旨在调查由研究生医学教育认证委员会（ACGME）认可的外科住院医师项目中哺乳政策和设施信息的可用性。设计：在2023年3月1日至2023年10月31日期间，对ACGME认证系统按专业项目清单上的外科住院医师培训项目的网站进行了审查，以获取科室的哺乳政策、包含哺乳政策的机构研究生医学教育（GME）网站的链接、哺乳设施列表以及包含哺乳设施的机构GME网站的链接。生成散点图并计算Pearson相关系数，以评估每个外科专科女性住院医师、研究员和教员的百分比与住院医师项目网站提供哺乳信息的百分比之间的关系。结果：共审查了1847个网站。17家（0.9%）有泌乳政策，31家（1.7%）有泌乳设施清单，231家（12.5%）有链接到有泌乳政策的机构网站，295家（16.%）有链接到有泌乳设施清单的机构网站。女性住院医师和研究员的百分比以及女性教员的百分比与住院医师项目网站提供哺乳信息的百分比呈正相关。结论：外科住院医师关于哺乳政策和设施的信息有限。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Surgical Education (JSE) is dedicated to advancing the field of surgical education through original research. The journal publishes research articles in all surgical disciplines on topics relative to the education of surgical students, residents, and fellows, as well as practicing surgeons. Our readers look to JSE for timely, innovative research findings from the international surgical education community. As the official journal of the Association of Program Directors in Surgery (APDS), JSE publishes the proceedings of the annual APDS meeting held during Surgery Education Week.
