    This study on gynecology education found a significant knowledge loss between the fourth and fifth years of study. However, knowledge retention improved substantially between the fifth and sixth years, influenced by the time elapsed between assessments.

    Area of Science:

    • Medical Education
    • Gynecology Training

    Background:

    • Assessing long-term knowledge retention in medical education is crucial for effective training.
    • Gynecology programs require continuous evaluation to ensure sustained learning.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate knowledge retention patterns in gynecology trainees over three academic years.
    • To analyze the impact of time on knowledge retention in a medical curriculum.

    Main Methods:

    • Comparative analysis of examination scores from the fourth, fifth, and sixth years of a gynecology program.
    • Utilizing non-identical examinations with consistent content to assess knowledge retention.
    • Statistical analysis of knowledge loss and gain percentages, including standard error and time influence.

    Main Results:

    • A significant knowledge loss of -45.0% +/- 1.4% was observed between the fourth and fifth years, independent of the time interval.
    • A notable knowledge gain of +72.8% +/- 11.1% occurred between the fifth and sixth years, influenced by the time between examinations.

    Conclusions:

    • Medical knowledge retention in gynecology education is dynamic, showing initial decline followed by improvement.
    • The timing of assessments significantly impacts knowledge gain in later stages of medical training.
