摘要

背景：主要的研究和招聘工作都集中在矫形外科人才队伍的多元化上，重点是性别多元化。本研究旨在描述过去十年中成人重建研究员匹配和美国髋关节与膝关节外科医生协会（AAHKS）成员的性别趋势。我们假设女性成人重建研究员和美国髋关节与膝关节外科医生协会会员的比例会有所上升：在这项回顾性、描述性研究中，我们收集了 2012 年至 2022 年配对的成人重建研究员的全名。对于匹配的研究员，性别是通过Genderize算法预测的。从 AAHKS 数据库中提取了 2016 年 1 月至 2023 年 5 月期间的全名、自我认定的性别和临床状态。对描述性统计数据进行了分析。通过逻辑回归分析评估了性别趋势。P值小于0.05为显著：从 2012 年到 2022 年，共有 1762 名住院医师获得了成人重建奖学金。在每年匹配的成人重建研究员中，女性占 2.5% 到 9.0%。匹配的女性申请者比例保持稳定（P = 0.4）。从2016年到2023年，AAHKS的外科会员从2845人增加到4159人。女性成人重建外科医生的人数从2.5%大幅增加到3.8%（2016年至2023年，P < 0.001）。在住院医师层面，女性成员从 4.0% 增加到 12.0%（2016 年至 2023 年，P < 0.001）：尽管越来越多的女性骨科医生参与成人重建手术，但女性成人重建研究员的比例一直保持稳定，最高水平出现在2021年。不过，AAHKS中女性成员的增加令人鼓舞，尤其是在住院医师和国际层面。更多样化的工作环境可以改善患者的就医体验和结果，还能提高医护人员的福利和工作效率。因此，继续建立一个更加多元化的成人重建社区是非常谨慎和必要的。

Trends in Women Adult Reconstruction Surgeons: Fellowship Applicants and American Association of Hip and Knee Surgeons Members

Background

Major research and recruitment efforts have focused on diversifying the orthopaedic surgery workforce, with a focus on gender diversity. This study aimed to characterize gender trends in the adult reconstruction fellowship match and the American Association of Hip and Knee Surgeons (AAHKS) membership over the past decade. We hypothesized that there would be increases in the percentage of women adult reconstruction fellows and AAHKS members.

Methods

For this retrospective, descriptive study, the full names of matched adult reconstruction fellows from 2012 to 2022 were collected. For the fellowship match, genders were predicted by the Genderize algorithm. From the AAHKS database, full names, self-identified genders, and clinical statuses were extracted from January 2016 to May 2023. Descriptive statistics were analyzed. Gender trends were evaluated with logistic regression analyses. P values < 0.05 were considered significant.

Results

From 2012 to 2022, 1,762 residents were matched for adult reconstruction fellowships. Women represented between 2.5 and 9.0% of matched adult reconstruction fellows per year. The percentage of matched women applicants has remained stable (P = 0.4). From 2016 to 2023, the membership of AAHKS grew from 2,845 to 4,159 surgical members. The number of women adult reconstruction surgeons significantly increased from 2.5 to 3.8% (2016 to 2023, P < 0.001). At the resident level, women’s membership increased from 4.0% to 12.0% (2016 to 2023, P < 0.001).

Conclusions

Although more women orthopaedic surgeons are matching in adult reconstruction, the percentage of women adult reconstruction fellows has remained stable, with the highest level being in 2021. However, the increase in women’s membership in AAHKS is encouraging, especially at the resident and international levels. More diverse work environments can enhance patient experiences and outcomes, in addition to provider well-being and productivity. Therefore, it is prudent and essential to continue building a more diverse adult reconstruction community.
