ABSTRACT

En el proceso de formación de los residentes de medicina interna, distintas organizaciones académicas y gubernamentales han recomendado incluir competencias específicas en investigación clínica. El estado actual de la investigación en este contexto no ha sido todavía relevado en nuestro país. El objetivo de este trabajo fue describir las actividades de investigación en las residencias de medicina interna como indicador de la adquisición de dichas competencias e identificar los facilitadores y barreras para la misma. Se realizó un estudio de corte transversal, se analizaron múltiples niveles para considerar las residencias como conglomerados. Se incluyeron 382 residentes de 24 residencias. Predominaron las mujeres, la mediana de edad fue 29 años. El 71% de los residentes informaron actividades de investigación. La mitad de ellos habían participado como autores de trabajos en congresos, solo el 9% había publicado su experiencia. Los factores predictores de desarrollar tareas de investigación fueron pertenecer a una residencia numerosa, OR 16.99 (IC 95%, 2.096-137.87), pertenecer al tercer año de residencia, OR 9.95 (IC 95%, 2.84-34.82), y haber realizado un curso de investigación, OR 2.78 (IC 95%, 1.10-7.04). Las variables que disminuyen la probabilidad de realizar investigación fueron la localización en el Gran Buenos Aires o Capital Federal, OR 0.25 (IC 95%, 0.0072-0.91), ser mujer, OR 0.34 (IC 95 0.14-0.79) y la carga asistencial, OR 0.97 (IC 95%, 0.95-0.99). Conocer los factores que influyen en la investigación contribuye a mejorar la formación de los residentes de medicina interna.


Several academic and government organizations have strongly recommended the inclusion of specific competences in clinical research. So far, the current state of research within this framework has not been modified in our country. The main goal of this study was to provide a thorough description of the research activities in medical residencies, which could be used as an indicator of the acquisition of such competences and to identify the supporters and detractors to achieve them. A cross section study was carried out and several levels were analyzed in order to consider residencies as a cluster; 382 residents from 24 different residencies were included. The study showed a preponderance of women. The average age was 29 years old. A 71% of the residents asserted doing research. Half of those residents have stated being authors of papers presented in congresses; only 9% have published their experience. Factors which predict the development of research assignments were: to belong to a large residency, OR 16.99 (IC 95%, 2.096-137.87), being in the 3rd year of the residency, OR 9.95 (IC 95%, 2.84- 34.82), completion of a research course, OR 2.78 (IC 95%, 1.10-7.04). Variables which reduce the chance to do research: location in Buenos Aires, OR 0.25 (IC 95%, 0.0072-0.91), being a woman, OR 0.34 (IC 95%, 0.14-0.79) and patients assistance workload, OR 0.97 (IC 95%, 0.95-0.99). We believe that the identification of factors which influence the possibility of doing research will lead to a improvement in the training of medical residents.
