Introduction. Internship is a mandatory form of primary specialization of persons in medical specialties to obtain the qualification of a specialist doctor with the aim of awarding the title of “specialist doctor”.
The purpose of the work is to show the specifics of the training of interns of the 3rd year of study on the basis of the Maternity Hospital No. 1 in Odesa.
Materials and methods. 11 interns are completing their 3rd year of internship in obstetrics and gynecology.
Results. The educational part of the 3rd year internship program in obstetrics and gynecology is three months (15.6 ECTS credits). Course 7: Precancerous pathology counts for 5 credits / 150 hours. Course 8: Gynecological oncology (3 credits / 90 hours). Course 9: Child and adolescent gynecology (3 credits / 90 hours). Course 10: Pathology of mammary glands (3 credits/90 hours). Additional programs (АP 3): 0.2 credits / 6 hours – Medical informatics and АP 4 – Simulation training: 1 credit / 30 hours. The practical part of the internship takes 8 months (1248 hours). Acquired competencies/practical skills are reflected in the “Practice Diary”. The mastery level is determined in the range from “A” to “D”, the number of manipulations, operations from 10 to 30.
Conclusions. The activities of the intern obstetrician-gynecologist of the 3rd year of study must be carefully monitored by the staff of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology and curators. The educational process of the intern obstetrician-gynecologist of the 3rd year of study is aimed at achieving the level of independent practice, acquiring competence and skills according to the internship program. An intern obstetrician-gynecologist in the 3rd year of training is considered competent in all aspects of professional activity when he can perform this activity independently. Prospects for further development are devoted to completing an internship in obstetrics and gynecology in the 2nd year of study.
