BackgroundNo studies have examined how journal clubs (JCs) are implemented in anesthesiology residency training programs. The goal of the study was to close this gap by (1) examining the format, content, and goals of JCs; (2) identifying features associated with higher resident attendance and JC success; and (3) examining program directors' perspectives on JCs.MethodsA 41-question survey was sent to anesthesiology program directors. Answers were analyzed using multivariable logistic regression, multivariable linear regression, and exploratory factor analysis.ResultsOut of 117 surveys sent across the United States, 80 program directors responded (68.4% response rate). Of the 80 programs, 77 (96.3%) programs have a JC, with 93.2% of them existing for more than 2 years. Most JCs (62.5%) neither formally appraised articles before meetings, nor formally evaluated their JC (59.7%). Faculty alone organized 44.4% and moderated 69.9% of the JCs. The role of residents was primarily limited to presenting selected articles with faculty guidance (83.3%). The average resident attendance was 49.7%. A multivariable linear regression analysis identified mandatory resident attendance, faculty turnout of >5 members, and longer intervals between JC meetings as features associated with higher resident attendance. Only 49.3% of JCs were successful as defined a priori by resident attendance >50% and longevity of ≥2 years. Features associated with JC success based on multivariable logistic regression included mandatory resident attendance and complimentary food.ConclusionsThis largest survey of JCs in anesthesiology found that while JCs are widely established, half of them could be improved.
