A significant minority (17-36%) felt they benefited from or preferred having students involved (Cooke et al 1996;Bentham et al 1999;Hajioff & Birchall 1999).

“…Also, Chipp et al (2004) found that patients were less comfortable with student involvement in more invasive clinical tasks. Although the majority of patients did not have a preference for student gender, those who did were mostly female (King et al 1992;Cooke et al 1996;Bentham et al 1999;Chipp et al 2004). While the breadth of the current literature includes studies conducted within several individual specialties, no study has ever directly compared patient comfort levels and attitudes regarding medical student involvement between specialties to investigate for inter-specialty differences.…”

“…A further finding concerns patient perceptions of doctor gender. In one GP study [8], 86% respondents (n=130) expressed '...no concern' about gender, and these results are reflected in secondary care [9]. As mentioned, specific references to communication and gender are infrequent.…”

Introduction: The European meetings and exchange programmes for trainees in Obstetrics and Gynaecology have been held annually since 1992. During the exchange programme, trainees from all over Europe will visit training departments in obstetrics and gynaecology in the host country for a week. The exchange programmes allow us to experience different methods of training and practices of obstetrics and gynaecology, and usually give some lively input to the seminar on training matters that have traditionally been held on the last day of the exchange programme. The exchange also has a positive social impact on our speciality-friendships and professional bonds are made that can last a lifetime. The success of the 15th European Meeting and Exchange Programme of Trainees in Obstetrics and Gynaecology was due to the hard work of two local trainees in obstetrics and gynaecology, Jordi Deu Martinez and Anabel Montero Armengol, in collaboration with the European Network of Trainees in Obstetrics and Gynaecology (ENTOG) and Professor Luis Cabero Roura. The seminar was well attended by both trainers and trainees, with more than 80 participants from over 20 countries, also welcoming colleagues from countries previously absent from our European fora e.g. Turkey, Iceland, Romania and the Baltic States. We were particularly pleased to see the increasingly active and assertive participation of trainees in the discussions at the meeting; this year, most of the presentations were done by trainees, and it was generally felt that the quality of presentations was excellent. The role of gender in OB/GYN has been discussed informally in European fora for many years, mostly with a focus on the so-called problem of feminisation of the speciality. To our knowledge, there has not been a formal and structured discussion of the issue of gender since the ENTOG Seminar in Basel in 2000. We felt it was time to have a nuanced, balanced and evidence based -one might say academic -approach to the issue of gender, and we very much succeeded with the Barcelona seminar. With the introduction of an invited key note speaker we aimed to increase the impact of our seminar, and with the eminent lecture of Dr. Connie Wiskin we were introduced to the front line of contemporary studies in gender behaviour in medicine. We are very happy that Dr. Wiskin has accepted our invitation to summarize her lecture in a review paper in this issue of the ECOG. From our discussions in Barcelona, it became clear that barriers and difficulties still exist for female colleagues to achieve specialization in OB/GYN and to obtain senior positions. Much still needs to be done to improve social conditions such as maternity leave, working hours and child care for professional mothers. It was also widely accepted that the contribution of both genders was necessary for the future of OB/GYN, and efforts should be made not to loose promising young male doctors to other specialities. As for recruitment in general, decreasing numbers of trainees enter the field of obstetrics and gynaecolog...

“…79 80 One study that had a low response rate, reported no decrease in clinical productivity (number of patients/hour) or overtime hours, while clinical productivity correlated to the number of patients seen independently by the student. 28 Impact on patients in the teaching practice The impact on patients was reported by eight papers from the UK, [86][87][88] the USA, 31 Australia, 89 Israel, 90 Sweden 91 and Austria 29 (table 6). All of them used questionnaire surveys with attitudinal statements and Likert scales and are non-comparative, except for two studies where patients seen with students were compared to those seen without students or before and after the consultation with a student.…”

Students conducting consultations in general practice and the acceptability to patients

Abstract: The results of this study are very reassuring concerning the acceptability to patients of consulting with medical students and are more favourable than those reported for studies of students being present in consultations by GPs.
