Brief Summary

The impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on medical education is real but little known. ENT interns were directly affected by the management of Covid-19 patients (performing surgical tracheostomies), many conferences and trainings were cancelled, their usual hospital activity deeply reshuffled. Although each student has a personal story of the impact of Covid-19 on their training, there is no doubt that the effects of Covid-19 are felt at scale. This study aims to investigate the effect of the pandemic on the medical and surgical training of ENT and Cervico-Facial Surgery interns in France from November 2019 to May 2021 (Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, Grand Est, Ile de France, Nouvelle Aquitaine and Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur areas). A questionnaire will be sent by mail to ENT interns in France to assess the impact of Covid-19 on the training of ENT interns in France.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• To evaluate the impact of Covid-19 on the training of ENT interns in France

  Evaluate the reduction in training time (practical and theoretical) as a proportion of usual training time between 2 periods: before and during the acute phase of the pandemic from November 2019 to May

  before and during the acute phase of the pandemic from November 2019 to May 2021 (ordinal categorical primary endpoint)

Secondary Outcomes (3)

• Assess interregional disparities in the impact of the Covid-19 crisis on ENT interns' training time.

  before and during the acute phase of the pandemic, from November 2019 to May 2021

• Evaluate strategies implemented to compensate for block closure and theoretical course cancellations between waves

  Before and during the acute phase of the pandemic, from November 2019 to May 2021

• Evaluate interregional disparities in training time for ENT interns outside the Covid-19 period.

  Before and during the acute phase of the pandemic, from November 2019 to May 2021
