History (was: TGIF Maternity Leave in Residency) From: Bernard Cristalli (bcrist@club-internet.fr) Sat Feb 28 10:39:30 2009 Messages sorted by: [ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ] Next message: =?utf-8?Q?Gerald_P._Rodríguez?=: "Re: Rhogam" Previous message: Joanne Bulley, MD: "Discharging a patient" In reply to: Joanne Bulley, MD: "Re: TGIF Maternity Leave in Residency" Just a point of history. Residency has been created in Paris, France on the 24th feb. 1801 by Napoleon under the name of "Internat" (internship). This was was later generalized in France in every important city (with a school of medicine). They became "internes" after a very severe concourse (still the same) and had very strong skills once 'bred'. Those guys were called "eleves internes" (internal pupils) because they were supposed to be learning doctors (actually they became MDs at the end of the internship), housed in the hospital and the only doctors left during afternoons and the nights. The "internat" lasted 4 years (5 now in certain specialities) and the "interne" left every 6 months for a new department (stil the same) among the hospitals of Paris. The other students remained "externes" (what you call interns), they had no therapeutic role and learned very little. The very first female to become a IHP (Interne des Hopitaux de Paris), was an american girl named Augusta Klumpke, it was in 1887. She married Professor Dejerine. My first position as an "Interne" was with her grand-grand son Eric Sorrel-Dejerine. -- Bernard Cristalli AIHP (Ancien Interne de Hopitaux de Paris) (Former IHP) Joanne Bulley, MD a écrit : > ... > > And even when residents were housed in the hospital and not supposed to > have wives and so forth - plenty had ways of slipping out of the > hospital and so forth. > > Joanne > > At Fri, 27 Feb 2009, DoctorJoe@aol.com wrote: > >> In a message dated 2/26/09 8:32:08 PM, ainsron@sbcglobal.net writes: >> >>> I would expect each residency program to have its own policies.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
