    Background:

    • Reduced-schedule residency training is increasingly desired by residents and medical students.
    • Limited availability of reduced-schedule positions through the National Resident Matching Program and independent arrangements.
    • Need to evaluate the feasibility and impact of reduced-schedule training.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review national experiences with reduced-schedule residency training over the past decade.
    • To present data on pediatric residents undertaking reduced-schedule training at the University of Rochester Strong Memorial Hospital (1977-1984).
    • To analyze the advantages and disadvantages of reduced-schedule training from multiple perspectives.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of national data on reduced-schedule residency positions.

    Related Experiment Videos

  • Analysis of data from 15 pediatric residents who participated in a reduced-schedule program.
  • Qualitative assessment of perspectives from residents (participants and non-participants) and faculty.

    • Main Results:

    • Few reduced-schedule positions are available nationally compared to total residency slots.
    • Fifteen pediatric residents successfully completed a reduced-schedule training between 1977 and 1984.
    • Identified advantages and disadvantages for residents and faculty involved in the program.

    Conclusions:

    • Reduced-schedule residency training is an attractive and viable option for selected residents and programs.
    • Implementation requires careful consideration of benefits and drawbacks for all stakeholders.
    • Further exploration of this training model is warranted to increase accessibility.
