Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Professional Standards
  • Residency Training

Background:

  • Defining and assessing internal standards in residency programs presents significant challenges.
  • Reproducibility, documentation, and variability in standards impact training quality.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore approaches for managing residents who fail to meet internal training standards.
  • To investigate the perspectives of both residents and program chiefs on addressing performance failures.

Main Methods:

  • Survey of residents' attitudes towards handling breaches of standards.
  • Survey of chiefs of teaching programs regarding their responses to performance issues.
  • Analysis of the German legal context and practical options for managing training failures.

Main Results:

  • Residents prefer clear feedback, retraining, and discussion over sanctions.
  • Program chiefs desire earlier intervention and sanctions with less emphasis on retraining and discussion.
  • Both groups seek senior staff collaboration in addressing performance deficits.

Conclusions:

  • Establishing clear criteria for failure is crucial before considering training discontinuation.
  • A consensus between chiefs and residents on what constitutes a definitive failure is necessary.
  • The paper discusses practical experiences with 7 cases of training discontinuation over 22 years.
