Pre‐ and Post‐Pandemic Trends in Emergency Medicine Resident Attrition

We found a spike in EM resident attrition for the 2021-22 academic year after a period of decline, mirroring trends in EM attending attrition, and an inverse correlation between EM residency application and attrition rates after 2021-22. Further studies are needed to elucidate the underlying factors determining resident attrition, attending attrition, and EM residency application.

Abstract

We found a spike in EM resident attrition for the 2021-22 academic year after a period of decline, mirroring trends in EM attending attrition, and an inverse correlation between EM residency application and attrition rates after 2021-22. Further studies are needed to elucidate the underlying factors determining resident attrition, attending attrition, and EM residency application.
