As a recent study in Japan, male and female surgeons have similar surgical complications and mortality rates, while female doctors have more difficult and emergency cases.
By researchers of the British journal “The BMJ”, the number of women in this field is less, but their abilities are same.
According to researchers, female doctors As a recent study in Japan, male and female surgeons have similar surgical complications and mortality rates, while female doctors have more difficult and emergency cases.
According to the researchers of the British journal “The BMJ”, the number of women in this field is less, but their abilities are not different.
According to researchers, female doctors numbers has increased over the past few years.
As a survey in 2019, only 28 percent of Canadian and 22 percent of American surgeons are female.
A 2017 survey reported that 33% of female doctors are surgeons in the UK, but the situation is even worse in Japan.
Another survey reported that only 22 percent are female general physicians and 5.9 percent are female surgeons.
Researchers report said, previous research has revealed that female doctors and surgeons in Canada and the United States are equal to or better than their male counterparts in ability.
For the aforementioned study, researchers compared the results of operations by female and male doctors and surgeons from 2013 to 2017, This data report is from the Japan National Clinical Database (NCD).
The comparison included 149,193 distal gastrectomy surgeries, 63,417 gastrectomy surgeries, and 81,593 lower operations.
Unfortunately, only 5% of these operations were performed by female surgeons and the operative outcome rate was found to be better than that of males.
According to the research, the hospital management chooses only women doctors or surgeons for difficult and complex cases.
The team of researchers says that despite there being no difference in the abilities and performance of the two, women get fewer opportunities.has increased over the past few years.
