[Achievement of educational goals among the trainees of obstetrics and gynaecology in the university of Turku]. / Miten Turun yliopistosta valmistuvat gynekologit ovat saavuttaneet koulutustavoitteensa?

This survey evaluates how the requirements in OB-GYN training are fulfilled in the University of Turku, Finland. We analysed the interventions and procedures performed by ten trainees who completed their specialisation between 2006 and 2009. The analysis was based on the EBCOG-Log Books. According to our survey the minimum requirements are better fulfilled in obstetrics compared to gynaecology. There is an imbalance between the EBCOG theoretical demand and practical performance of the trainees in gynaecology because of limited possibilities to perform traditional operations to the required extent. Consequently, gynaecological aspects in training need more resources and new alternative activities.
