| Popis: | Surgical residency training is a complex and costly task. Hospital economic health is dependent on different variables, but it is especially linked to the country macroeconomics that may be extremely fluctuating, especially in underdeveloped countries. This study analyzed the correlation between a single-center university hospital financial status and subjective perception of general surgery residents on program support and adequacy. We surveyed former residents that started general surgery residency program in a tertiary university hospital between 1999 and 2017. Individuals answered a questionnaire about the perception of the influence of the hospital´s financial status on training. Hospital´s financial status was estimated yearly by the current liquidity ratio (CLR) that measures whether or not a company has enough resources to meet its short-term obligations. Two hundred and fifty-seven (96%) were still in surgical practice; 242 (93%) were satisfied with their residency training; 210 (78%) believed training was affected by financial status; 183 (68%) believed they were prepared for independent practice; 180 (67%) practiced in an academic environment; 146 (54%) felt the need to complete specialty training beyond residency; and 56 (21%) believed hospital financial status was adequate. The rate of positive or negative answers did not correlate with the current liquidity ratio, except for the need to complete specialty training that was indirectly related to CLR. University hospital financial status did not influence subjective perception of general surgery residents on training, program support and adequacy. |
