Objective:
The aim: To research the degree of satisfaction with the training of general practitioners-family medicine (GP-FM) in the specialization "Otorhinolaryngology" in the leading higher educational institutions (HEIs) of Ukraine at undergraduate and postgraduate levels.
Patients And Methods:
Materials and methods: A questionnaire was conducted of 51 GP-FM doctors.
Results:
Results: The duration of otorhinolaryngology training at a medical HEI was indicated by: 49% of respondents about weeks of training, 19.6% - about months. 31.37% received separate training on ENT examination. 56.9% of people were trained in ENT departments. 76.5% of people were not satisfied with the quality of theoretical knowledge, 52.9% of respondents of practical skills at the undergraduate level. 72.6% of doctors not satisfied with the quality of theoretical knowledge, 56.8% of respondents of practical skills at the post-graduate level. 41.2% of respondents received post-graduate training in otorhinolaryngology at the GP-FM specialization cycle, 72.55% of them in a lecture format. 86.3% of people want to deepen their knowledge of otolaryngology and need to understand the etiopathogenetic mechanisms of ENT pathology.
Conclusion:
Conclusions. The dissonance with the dissatisfaction of the doctors of the GPFM with the quality of the received theoretical knowledge in ENT pathology and the availability of their practical skills was revealed. It is important for GPFM doctors to undergo separate training in ENT examination and pathology with mandatory study and conscious use of etiopathogenetic mechanisms of ENT pathology, especially in inflammatory diseases.
