Paper doi abstract bibtex Purpose: Prior studies found that Ob-gyn trainees believe they have inadequate experience in the REI subspecialty. We evaluated the amount of time devoted to REI within the 4-year rotation schedule of ACGME-accredited Ob-gyn residency programs. Methods: A list of current Ob-gyn residency programs, both with and without REI fellowships, was created using ACOG and ACGME databases. The programs’ websites were reviewed, or the program coordinator was queried to determine the length and year of REI rotation, and the career or fellowships pursued by alumni. Wilcoxon rank sum test was utilized to assess differences in total REI rotation time between REI-affiliated and non-affiliated programs. Spearman’s correlation was utilized to assess the association between total REI exposure and the percentage of alumni pursuing REI fellowships. Results: Cumulative length of REI rotations throughout residency ranged from 0 to 20 weeks. Mean cumulative rotation length was greater in non-REI than in REI-affiliated programs (7.4 weeks vs. 6.1 weeks, p = 0.007). However, REI-affiliated programs had greater exposure to REI rotations during the first 2 years of residency (3.9 weeks vs 3.1 weeks, p = 0.042). Among all programs, 24% had the REI rotation in PGY-1, 61% in PGY-2, 50% in PGY-3, and 16% in PGY-4. The proportion of alumni matching in REI fellowship was significantly greater in REI-affiliated programs than non-REI affiliated programs (9.5% vs. 3.1%, p \textless 0.001). Conclusion: Compared to non-REI affiliated programs, Ob-gyn residencies affiliated with REI fellowships spend less time throughout residency training in REI rotations while sending a greater proportion of residents to REI fellowships.
