Popis: BACKGROUND There is a trend of increasing discontent of urologic residents with educational programs. One point being mentioned is lack of time during residency for education and self-training. We analyzed the available time for education in our department depending on the used working model through the last 25 years. MATERIALS AND METHODS We calculated the absolute availability of residents during their residency for working models in 1996, 2000, 2007 and 2017. As a basis we used the working model of 1996 as no compensatory time-off for being on call was used. All days on which a delayed start is planned and no schedule in daily routine is possible had been excluded from education time. The numbers implemented in the regulation on further education in the corresponding years had been used to calculate the expenditure of time on the basis of median length of the different intervention. In addition, the patient numbers on the ward and our outpatient clinic had been documented over time. RESULTS With increasing patient numbers in the in- and outpatient clinic there is a continuous decreasing time available for education. The absolute available time in our department is calculated to be 3.1 years compared to 5 years in 1996. With the first day of training a resident has to complete 66.9 min of self-contained diagnostics or interventions per day in addition to clinical routine and administration to meet the requested numbers of the regulation on further education. CONCLUSIONS The limited time being available for the educational program is improved by the current regulation of education. To teach the complex segments of urology there is an urgent need for a well-structured curriculum, which should be used nationwide.
