Residency Characteristics Associated With Pregnancy Care Among Graduates: A Family Medicine Residency Outcomes Project Study
In a large national cohort study, performing more than 80 deliveries during residency, exposure to six or more faculty delivering babies, and completing four or more months of obstetrics training (deliveries only) were associated with graduates providing maternity care and deliveries. These findings align with the 2023 Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education Family Medicine Residency Requirements for comprehensive pregnancy care training.
