摘要

Background

There are differing opinions among various professional associations and societies regarding the introduction of a specialist title for emergency medicine in Germany. The aim of this survey was to assess the attitudes of the emergency medicine junior professionals on this topic.

Aim

This study examines the perspective of medical students and training assistants on a specialist title in emergency medicine.

Methods

An online survey (www.empirio.de) was conducted with a total of nine questions targeted at medical students and training assistants of the Young Emergency Medicine of the Association of Emergency Physicians in North Rhine-Westphalia. Participation was voluntary and anonymous.

Results

A total of 198 individuals (53% male) primarily from the age group of 21–30 years (70%) participated in the survey. The majority, with 85.4% of respondents, support the introduction of a specialist in emergency medicine. The respondents emphasize the importance of aspects such as training, working time models, remuneration, and career prospects. The emergency medicine junior professionals particularly express a desire for structured training, individualized working time models, and appropriate remuneration. A forward-looking approach to address existing shortages in primary care is to allow physicians who have completed a specialist qualification in emergency medicine to subsequently establish themselves as general practitioners.

Conclusion

The present survey demonstrates the strong desire among emergency medicine-interested students and training assistants for the introduction of a specialist in emergency medicine.
