    Area of Science:

    • Medical Education
    • Pediatric Residency Training
    • Program Evaluation

    Background:

    • Few studies have assessed residency programs from the perspective of program graduates.
    • Evaluating training programs is crucial for ensuring physicians meet current professional needs.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate a practical method for evaluating pediatric residency programs using graduate feedback.
    • To identify specific areas of strength and deficiency in a long-standing pediatric residency program.

    Main Methods:

    • A survey was administered to former residents of the Duke pediatric program (1960-1972).
    • Respondents evaluated various aspects of their training and related them to current professional needs.

    Main Results:

    Related Experiment Videos

    • The overall training program received favorable ratings from former residents.
    • Deficiencies were primarily noted in ambulatory pediatric care, including surgery, dermatology, psychiatry, and radiology.
    • Analysis showed little variation in responses based on the period of participation or current professional activity.

    Conclusions:

    • Graduate surveys provide an inexpensive and effective means of monitoring residency program inadequacies.
    • This feedback can generate data essential for initiating program improvements in medical education.
