Abstract
BackgroundSimulation now has an important role in theoretical and practical aspects of medical education and training. MethodsWe performed an epidemiological, observational, multicenter study based on nationwide data collection. French obstetrics and gynecologic residents were invited to complete an anonymous survey. ResultsWe received 305 answers. The most frequently offered gynecology sessions were laparoscopy on pelvitrainer (76%) and pelvic ultrasound (60%) while the most frequently offered obstetric sessions were breech delivery (61%), shoulder dystocia (62%) and postpartum hemorrhage (68%) managements. Regarding session frequency, 29.1% of residents thought that one session per month would be ideal. Two hundred and sixty three residents (96%) considered that simulation-training sessions were beneficial. One hundred and thirty-six residents (49%) had an opportunity to repeat sessions and a majority of them (96%) found a daily benefit following a training simulation session. ConclusionSimulation programs were extremely popular among the surveyed residents. To improve OBGYN resident training, simulation should be an integral part of residency programs.
