摘要

对性别确认手术（GAS）的兴趣在整形和重建手术（PRS）中不断增长，但在PRS子实习期间的GAS暴露仍然没有得到重视。本研究通过对单一机构2024年综合住院医师计划的申请人进行横断面调查，评估了这些轮岗期间的气体暴露情况，并根据地区、计划规模和类型检查了人口统计数据和暴露差异。在295名申请者中，有73人（25%）做出了回应。气体暴露发生在78%的报告子实习（120/154）。中等规模课程的学生比小型课程的学生有更高的GAS暴露几率（比值比[OR] = 14.3, p = 0.026）。与南方项目相比，中西部的学生有更高的临床暴露（OR = 9.85, p = 0.050），而西部的学生有更高的面部气体暴露（OR = 5.13, p = 0.048）。90%的受访者认为，对副实习生来说，接触GAS至少是中等程度的重要。虽然天然气暴露量正在增加，但区域和项目差异仍然存在。更明确的期望可以帮助学生将他们的轮岗与教育目标结合起来，更好地为住院医生做好准备。

Assessing gender-affirming surgery training in plastic surgery sub-internships: Insights into the current landscape

Interest in gender-affirming surgery (GAS) is growing in plastic and reconstructive surgery (PRS), yet GAS exposure during PRS sub-internships remains underemphasized. This study assessed GAS exposure during these rotations via a cross-sectional survey to applicants to a single institution’s 2024 integrated residency program, examining demographics and exposure differences by region, program size, and type. Of 295 applicants, 73 (25%) responded. GAS exposure occurred in 78% of reported sub-internships (120/154). Students at medium-sized programs had higher odds of GAS exposure than those at small programs (odds ratio [OR] = 14.3, p = 0.026). Compared to Southern programs, students in the Midwest had higher clinic exposure (OR = 9.85, p = 0.050), and those in the West had greater facial GAS exposure (OR = 5.13, p = 0.048). Ninety percent of respondents believed GAS exposure is at least moderately important for sub-interns. While GAS exposure is increasing, regional and program disparities persist. Clearer expectations could help students align their rotations with educational goals and better prepare them for residency.
