Introduction: The consequences of the Covid-19 epidemic have been catastrophic for Latin America in 2021. This study explores experiences, lessons learned, and practice changes during this critical time in post-graduate medical education in Latin America. Me-thods: A panel of 53 post-graduate medical education leaders from 8 Latin American countries and Canada was invited to participate in the 2021 Latin American Medical Education Leaders Forum to share their experiences, lessons learned, and main educational practice changes given the Covid-19 pandemic scenario. Participants were selected following a snowball technique with the goal of obtaining a diverse group of experts. Small group discussions were conducted by bilingual facilitators based on a semi-structured questionnaire. The plenary session with the main conclusions of each group was recorded and fully transcribed for a thematic analysis using a framework methods approach. Results: Participants ́ profiles included 13 experienced clinician-educators, 19 program directors, and 23 deans or organizational representatives. Seven specific themes emerged. They followed a pattern that went from an initial emotional reaction of surprise to a complex collective response. The responses highlighted the value of adaptability, the application of new digital skills, a renovated residents' protagonism, the strengthening of humanism in medicine, the openness of new perspectives in wellness, and finally, an unresolved challenge of assessment in medical education in a virtual post-pandemic scenario. Conclusion: A diverse panel of medical educators from Latin America and Canada identified changes triggered by the Covid-19 pandemic that could transform postgraduate medical education in the region.

Introducción: El burnout es un síndrome caracterizado por agotamiento emocional, despersonalización y bajo sentido de logro personal. Los médicos residentes de especialidad y subespecialidad constituyen una población de riesgo por la alta carga laboral y la interferencia con su vida personal. Nuestro objetivo fue evaluar la prevalencia de burnout y su asociación con variables sociodemográficas, en residentes de especialidad y subespecialidad de la Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile (PUC). Métodos: Se realizó una encuesta electrónica a los residentes de especialidad y subespecialidad de la PUC, que incluyó el "Inventario de Burnout de Maslach" (22 preguntas divididas en 3 dimensiones). Se sumaron los puntos de cada dimensión y se clasificó a los residentes en riesgo de burnout al presentar altos índices de agotamiento emocional y/o despersonalización. El análisis estadístico incluyó un análisis univariado y multivariado. Resultados: 415 encuestas fueron contestadas (tasa de respuesta 86 por ciento). El 38,3 por ciento de los residentes cumplió criterios de burnout, con un 41,9 por ciento en residentes de especialidad y 24,1por ciento en residentes de subespecialidad. En el análisis por subgrupos, la mayor prevalencia se encontró en especialidades quirúrgicas (55,3por ciento). Los residentes extranjeros, los programas de especialidad (comparados con subespecialidad) y los programas de especialidades quirúrgicas se asociaron de manera independiente a burnout (OR 3,8 IC95 por ciento 1,4-10,5, p=0,01; OR 2,3 IC95 por ciento 1,3-4,1, p<0,01 y OR 1,7 IC95 por ciento 1,1-2,7; p=0,02, respectivamente). La carga laboral horaria no se asoció de manera independiente a burnout (p=0,19). Conclusión: Los residentes de especialidad y subespecialidad presentan una alta prevalencia de burnout. Adicionalmente, ser extranjero, el pertenecer a un programa de especialidad y los programas de especialidades quirúrgicas se asocian de manera independiente a burnout.(AU)


Introduction: Burnoutis a pathological syndrome characterized by emotional exhaustion, depersonalization and low sense of personal accomplishment. Residents from medical specialties and subspecialties constitute a population at risk for high work overload and interference in personal life. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of burnout and its associations with sociodemographic variables, in specialty and subspecialty residents of the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile (PUC). Methods: An electronic survey was answered by residents of specialty and subspecialty of PUC. It included the "Maslach Burnout Inventory" (which consists of 22 questions divided into 3 dimensions). The points of each dimension were added and burnout was defined as a high score on depersonalization or emotional exhaustion subscales. Statistical analysis included an univariate and multivariate analysis. Results: 415 surveys were answered (response rate 86 percent). 38.3 percent of residents met criteria for burnout, with a percentage of 41.9 percent for specialty residents and 24.1 percent for subspecialty residents. In the subgroup analysis, the highest prevalence was found in surgical specialties (55.3 percent). Foreign residents, medical residency programs (compared to sub specialization programs) and surgical programs were independently associated with burnout (OR 3.8 IC95 percent1.4-10.5, p=0.01; OR 2.3 IC95 percent 1.3-4.1, p<0.01 y OR 1.7 IC95% 1.1-2.7; p=0.02, respectively). There was no independent association between duty hours and burnout (p=0.19). Conclusion: Specialty and subspecialty residents have a high prevalence of burnout. Additionally, foreign residents, participation in a speciality residency (compared to subspecialties programs) and surgical residencies are independently associated to burnout. (AU)

Background: Inappropriate medication use in older people is an important source of adverse events and complications. Aim: To determine the frequency of inappropriate medication use in the general population. Material and Methods: As part of the 2010 Chilean National Health Survey, 1,048 persons aged 65 years or more were interviewed about medication use. The information obtained was analyzed using standardized Beer’s criteria, adapted for the Chilean population, to define inappropriate medication use. A logistic regression model was performed to define risk factors for inappropriate medication use. Results: Ten percent of subjects had a high risk of inappropriate medication use. The most common medications used were chlorphenamine, amitriptyline, diazepam, chlorpromazine, chlordiazepoxide and piroxicam. The risk factors detected were female gender, polypharmacy and a bad health self-perception. Conclusions: Inappropriate medication use is common among Chilean older people and should be discouraged.

Introducción: La sobrecarga laboral horaria es un importante problema en los programas de especialización médica. Se asocia a mayor prevalencia de depresión, burnout, deserción, e impacta en la calidad de vida de los residentes. Nuestro objetivo fue cuantificar las horas semanales de carga laboral horaria en residentes de especialidad y subespecialidad de la Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile (PUC). Métodos: Se realizó una encuesta electrónica a los residentes de especialidad y subespecialidad de la Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile (2013). Esta incluyó autorreporte de horas semanales trabajadas (jornada habitual, turnos presenciales y turnos de llamada). Para el análisis se consideraron solo las horas presenciales (jornada habitual y turnos presenciales Resultados: se obtuvieron 415 respuestas (tasa de respuesta 86%). Los residentes de especialidad reportaron una jornada de 52,8 ± 20,3 horas semanales más un promedio de 22,6 ± 22,5 horas de turnos presenciales semanales. Los residentes de programas de subespecialidad reportaron una jornada de 55,9 ± 22,2 horas semanales más un promedio de 23 ± 3,9 horas de turnos presenciales semanales. De los 53 programas evaluados, el 22,6 por ciento sobrepasó el límite recomendado por la Dirección de Postgrado PUC (80 horas semanales). Cinco programas reportaron 90-100 horas semanales (todas especialidades o subespecialidades quirúrgicas) y 7 programas reportaron 80-90 horas semanales (3 subespecialidades médicas, 1 subespecialidad quirúrgica, 2 especialidades médicas y 1 especialidad quirúrgica). Conclusión: los residentes de especialidades y subespecialidades médicas en la Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile están sometidos a una carga horaria significativa. Los programas quirúrgicos presentaron la mayor sobrecarga horaria presencial, con un promedio mayor al recomendado a nivel internacional. (AU)


Introduction: Residents work hours' overload constitutes an important problem in medical postgraduate residency programs. It has been associated to an increased prevalence of depression, burnout, attrition and affects quality of life of residents. The aim of our study was to quantify the duty hours in residents of specialty and subspecialty at the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile (PUC). Methods: An electronic survey was performed to residents of specialty and subspecialty at PUC (2013). It included an auto report of the duty hours worked in a week (regular working day, night shifts and on call shifts). We only included for analysis the face hours (regular working day and night shifts). Results: 415 surveys were answered (response rate 86percent). Specialty residents reported 52.8 ± 20.3 regular working hours per week plus an average of 22.6 ± 22.5 hours of night shifts. Subspecialty residents reported 55.9 ± 22.2 regular working hours per week plus an average of 23 ± 3.9 hours of night shifts. From the 53 evaluated programs, 22.6 percent exceeded the limit recommended in the PUC Postgraduate Office (80 hours per week). Five programs reported 90-100 hours per week (all were surgical specialties and subspecialties) and 7 programs reported 80-90 hours per week (3 medical subspecialties, 1 surgical subspecialty, 2 medical specialties and 1 surgical specialty). Conclusion: The residents of specialty and subspecialty from medical postgraduate programs at PUC are subject to a significant workload. The surgical programs present the highest time workload, with a greater average than the internationally recommended.(AU)

Background: Feedback is one of the most important tools to improve teaching in medical education. Aim: To develop an instrument to assess the performance of clinical postgraduate teachers in medical specialties. Material and Methods: A qualitative methodology consisting in interviews and focus-groups followed by a quantitative methodology to generate consensus, was employed. After generating the instrument, psychometric tests were performed to assess the construct validity (factor analysis) and reliability (Cronbach’s alpha). Results: Experts in medical education, teachers and residents of a medical school participated in interviews and focus groups. With this information, 26 categories (79 items) were proposed and reduced to 14 items (Likert scale 1-5) by an expert’s Delphi panel, generating the MEDUC-PG14 survey, which was answered by 123 residents from different programs of medical specialties. Construct validity was carried out. Factor analysis showed three domains: Teaching and evaluation, respectful behavior towards patients and health care team, and providing feedback. The global score was 4.46 ± 0.94 (89% of the maximum). One teachers’ strength, as evaluated by their residents was “respectful behavior” with 4.85 ± 0.42 (97% of the maximum). “Providing feedback” obtained 4.09 ± 1.0 points (81.8% of the maximum). MEDUC-PG14 survey had a Cronbach’s alpha coefficient of 0.947. Conclusions: MEDUC-PG14 survey is a useful and reliable guide for teacher evaluation in medical specialty programs. Also provides feedback to improve educational skills of postgraduate clinical teachers.

Background: There is no established definition of healthy aging in clinical practice, although it is a World Health Organization goal. Aim: To develop a clinical protocol to identify healthy older people living in the community and study their clinical, laboratory and functional characteristics. Material and Methods: Healthy people aged 60 years or older, were invited to participate in the study, by newspapers and radio, if they selfperceived as healthy, lived in the community, were functionally independent and had low disease burden. Potential participants were initially screened by telephone, and those who met the inclusion criteria were included. They had a comprehensive geriatric assessment which included clinical, anthropometric, laboratory and functional assessments. Results: Of 384 people who answered the call, 83 subjects aged 60 to 98 years (57 percent women) met the inclusion criteria of healthy older people. Seventy eight percent did not consume any medication, 100 percent were able to perform physical activities that required at least three metabolic equivalents (Mets). Basic laboratory showed that approximately 90 percent of subjects had normal values, using standard benchmarks established for an adult population. Conclusions: The protocol used in this work was able to identify healthy older people with low disease burden and good functionality. It also validated history and comprehensive geriatric assessment as reliable instruments to identify these subjects.
