摘要
背景:由于未知的原因,在撒哈拉以南非洲(SSA),特别是西非,女性参与麻醉学的比例非常低,很少有女性达到顶级学术或临床职位。目的:女性减少职业视角。设计:比较男性和女性住院医师首次参加专业毕业考试时的表现。环境:科托努麻醉学和重症监护培训中心,法语SSA第二大培训中心,自1996年成立以来,已有来自14个非洲国家的146名麻醉师毕业。方法:检索125名男性和21名女性毕业生的所有期末考试成绩(包括3个书面问题和2个临床评估)。女性和男性获得的分数使用学生t检验进行比较。他们的总分被用来把毕业生分成十分位数。妇女的比例按十分位数计算。结果:女性在麻醉和重症监护临床评估中分别表现更好(68.2% vs. 64.2% p=0.004),并且在三个笔试(麻醉、重症监护和基础科学- 66.2% vs. 66.1% p=0.99)中与男性表现相同。将各科室的临床和书面评分相加,女性在麻醉科的得分高于男性(69.2%比65.2% p=0.01),甚至在重症监护科的得分也高于男性(65.0%比64.1% p=0.51)。在全球范围内,女性和男性的结果是相似的(67%对65%,p=0.1),女性在每个十分位数中的比例从最低的十分位数增加到最好的十分位数,但女性的绝对低数量使这一趋势具有临界意义(斜率+1,每十分位数56%的女性,p=0.046)**。结论:女性在终末专科考试中的表现不太可能解释她们随后在SSA麻醉和重症监护学术水平上的代表性不足。
Gender and graduating results in the Anesthesiology and Intensive Care Abomey-Calavi (Cotonou, Benin) program
Background: For unknown reasons female participation in anesthesiology is very low in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), especially in West Africa, and few women reach top academic or clinical positions.
Objective: Women reduced professional perspectives.
Design: Male and female residents’ performances were compared when they presented for their first try the graduating exams of the specialty.
Settings: The Cotonou anesthesiology and intensive care training center, the second largest in French-speaking SSA, where 146 anesthesiologists from 14 African countries graduated since its creation in 1996.
Method: All results at their final exams (consisting in 3 written questions and 2 clinical evaluations) were retrieved for the 125 men and 21 women who graduated. Scores obtained by women and males were compared using Student’s t tests. Their total of points was used to divide graduates into deciles. The proportion of women was counted in each decile.
Results: Women performed better at both anesthesia and intensive care clinical evaluations taken separately and together (total 68.2% vs. 64.2% p=0.004) and were even with men for the three written exams (anesthesia, intensive care and basic sciences - total 66.2 % vs. 66.1% p=0.99). When clinical and written scores are added in each sector, women scored better than males for anesthesiology (69.2% vs. 65.2% p=0.01) and were even for intensive care (65.0% vs. 64.1% p=0.51). Globally women and men results were similar (67% vs. 65%, p=0.1) The proportion of women in each decile increased from the lowest to the best deciles, but the absolute low number of women gives this trend borderline significance (slope +1,56 % women per decile, p=0.046)**.
Conclusion: Women performance at end-specialty exams is unlikely to explain their subsequent underrepresentation at the academic level in anesthesia and intensive care in SSA**.

L’Acta Anaesthesiologica Belgica est le journal de la SBAR, publié 4 fois par an. L’Acta a été publié pour la première fois en 1950. Depuis 1973 l’Acta est publié dans la langue Anglaise, ce qui a été résulté à un rayonnement plus internationaux. Depuis lors l’Acta est devenu un journal à ne pas manquer dans le domaine d’Anesthésie Belge, offrant e.a. les textes du congrès annuel, les Research Meetings, … Vous en trouvez aussi les dates des Research Meetings, du congrès annuel et des autres réunions.
