Abstract
PERSIA-PAULINO, Yván R. et al. Impact of COVID-19 pandemic on cardiology fellows academic training: beyond the clinical impact. Arch. Cardiol. Méx. [online]. 2021, vol.91, suppl.2, pp.18-24. Epub Feb 07, 2022. ISSN 1665-1731. https://doi.org/10.24875/acm.20000518.
Objective:
The objectives were to analyze the perception of the Cardiology Fellows in Training (FIT) of Spain about the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on their academic training and to know the adaptative changes performed by their department.
Methods:
A cross-sectional study performed through a digital survey platform for Cardiology FIT. Chi2 analysis and logistic regression were performed to determine the factors that influenced on the perception of an affected training.
Results:
A total of 180 FIT from the 17 regions of Spain participated. Third year FIT and those rotating in cardiac imaging were the most affected with statistically significant difference. The residents of the regions with a prevalence of >5 cases/1,000 inhabitants were the most likely to be displaced from their departments.
Conclusions:
According to the opinion of the participants, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on their academic training was more negative in third year FITs and those rotating in cardiac imaging.
