Gender Disparities in Medical Training
Gender disparities in critical care training are highlighted through personal experiences of the interviewees during their medical training. Female clinicians often felt excluded from positive interactions enjoyed by their male counterparts, particularly in high-stakes environments like the ICU. This inequality is perceived to impact procedural training and opportunities available to residents based on gender, fostering a structured understanding of these differences. The discussion reveals how these experiences prompted further research into the underlying causes and consequences of gender disparities in critical care education.
