Poster Session 1

(227) Satisfaction of placenta accreta training during Maternal-Fetal Medicine versus Gynecologic Oncology fellowship.

Tuesday, February 13, 2024
10:30 AM – 12:00 PM  
Location: Prince George's Exhibit Hall CDE, Lower Atrium Level
Foundation Awardee
Objective:

Training in placenta accreta spectrum disorder (PASD) is essential to Maternal-Fetal Medicine (MFM) and Gynecology Oncology (Gyn/Onc) fellowships. Our objective was to assess the satisfaction and alignment with future career goals of placenta accreta training during MFM and Gynecology Oncology fellowship.

Study Design: An anonymous survey was distributed to all ACGME-accredited MFM and Gyn/Onc fellowship programs between 04.08.23-07.30.23. The survey contained demographic information, and questions reflecting satisfaction with PASD training during fellowship and matching future career goals. This was assessed with modified 5-point Likert scale. 

Results:

We received 43 responses, 28 (65.1%) responders were from MFM fellows, and 15 (35.9%) were from Gyn/Onc fellows. Out of all responders, satisfaction with PASD training in their fellowship was greater in Gyn/Onc fellows compared to MFM fellows (80% vs. 42.9%, p=0.02). Conversely, MFM fellows reported that they were not satisfied with their PASD-related training more frequently than Gyn/Onc fellows (32.1% vs 13.3%, p=0.39)

PASD training in MFM fellowship matched trainees’ future career plans in 60.1% in contrast to 80% of Gyn/Onc fellows (p=0.19).

Conclusion:

Satisfaction with PAS training and alignment with future career goals were higher in Gyn/Onc fellowship programs compared with MFM fellowship.
