Abstract
Introduction The purpose of this research was to determine what, if any, relationship existed between in-training exams (ITE) given during the categorical years of anesthesiology residency training and first attempt performance on Part One of the American Board of Anesthesiology (ABA) certification examination (CE). Additionally, several variables available to residency program directors, to include gender, medical degree, medical school, and United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE) Step 1 and Step 2 CK scores, were analyzed to determine if a predictive relationship existed between any variable(s) and the Part One CE. Current research in anesthesiology only looked at PGY-II ITE scores, while other specialties have found relationships in later years of training not yet studied in anesthesiology.
