RationaleOn the occasion of the General stage meeting of Internal Medicine, the National College of Internal Medicine Teachers (CEMI) conducted a survey on teaching activity among all French university hospital (HU) internal medicine specialists.MethodThe survey was carried out in September 2023 by sending an email to 101 hospital practitioners university professors (PU-PH) and 18 hospital practitioners assistant professors (MCU-PH) of internal medicine in subsection 53-01 of the National council of universities (CNU), as well as to the 11 HU internists working in immunology (subsection 47-01) or therapeutics (subsection 48-04).ResultsSeventy-three HUs (56.1%) responded to the survey, including 65 PU-PH, 7 MCU-PH and 1 university hospital practitioner (PHU). Internal medicine HUs participate in faculty teaching: 80% are responsible for teaching, 30% are responsible for the year or cycle or lead committees and 40% have had or have an elected mandate at the faculty or at university. Internal medicine HU are involved in the teaching of semiology during the first cycle of medical studies, but also in pharmaceutical sciences, dentistry, midwifery and in paramedical training. They are very invested in the implementation of the second cycle reform and 80% are involved in the preparation of Objective Structured Clinical Examinations (ECOS), mainly as examiners (90%). They also participate in teaching using simulation (60%), teaching advanced practice nurses (IPA) (25%), and writing CEMI books (75%). For ECOS, 90% participate as examiners, 60% participate in teaching using simulation, 25% are involved in teaching advanced practice nurses (IPA), 75% participated in the writing of CEMI works. Eight (12%) internal medicine HUs co-facilitate training with patients and 26 (38%) participate in master's courses at the Faculty of Sciences. Finally, 94% are affiliated with a research unit and 48% supervise university theses students.ConclusionInternal medicine universities teachers have a strong educational commitment, particularly in semiology and in the reform of the second cycle of medical studies with ECOS and simulation.Copyright © 2024 Société Nationale Française de Médecine Interne (SNFMI).
