摘要:
Ophthalmology residents often obtain informed consent for common procedures. In this study, we set out to determine the confidence levels among ophthalmology residents who obtain informed consent. An anonymous online survey was distributed to United States ophthalmology residents across the country. Ninety-five residents participated, evenly distributed geographically and by postgraduate year (PGY). Residents were frequently obtaining consent for procedures despite not being comfortable doing so. Only 18% of residents reported that they always felt comfortable with the informed consent process. Comfort level increased significantly with PGY (P<.001) and prior training in informed consent (P=.032). Of the residents surveyed, 76% indicated a desire for more formal training in the consent process. Most residents would welcome an informed-consent formal training curriculum, which would address 5 of the 6 Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education core competencies and meet resident milestones in the Next Accreditation System.
