A Chicago-based group that establishes work standards for U.S. medical school graduates has voted to eliminate a 16-hour cap for first-year residents. The Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Educa- tion announced the move Friday as part of revisions that include reinstating the longer limit for rookies — the same maximum allowed for advanced residents. An 80-hour per week limit for residents at all levels remains in place under the new rules. Dr. Anai Kothari, a third- year resident on a council panel that recommended the changes, says he only occasionally works 24-hour shifts. The extra hours give him time to finish up with patients instead of being sent home in the middle of a case, said Kothari, who works at Loyola University Medical Center near Chicago. But first-year resident Dr. Samantha Harrington thinks it will endanger the safety of residents and patients. Harrington says her 14-hour shifts this winter at Cambridge Hospital near Boston are already plenty long. To stay awake while driving home after work, she sometimes rolls down the window to let the freezing air blast her in the face. Harrington says the grueling hours are “based on a patriarchal hazing system,” where longtime physicians think “‘I went through it, so therefore you have to go through it too.’” She is a member of the Committee of Interns and Residents, a AP Photo/Steven Senne In this Feb. 27 photo, Cambridge Hospital first-year resident Samantha Harrington stands for a photograph at the hospital in Cambridge, Mass. union group that opposes the work-shift changes. So does the American Medical Student Association. Dr. Kelly Thibert, the group’s president, says putting a 16-hour cap on all residents’ work shifts would be a safer way to even the playing field. There are more than 120,000 U.S. doctors-in- training including rookies. The accreditation council has for years wrestled with ensuring that doctors are adequately trained but not over-worked. The 1984 death of an 18-year-old college student in a New York hospital while under the care of medical residents working long hours put a national spotlight on the issue. Medication error and inadequate supervision were cited in that case, which prompted a lengthy inves- tigation and state limits for residents’ work hours. In 2003, the council implemented national stan- dards that established the 24-hour shift cap and 80-hour work week for all residents. After an Institute of Medicine report raised additional safety concerns about sleep-de- prived residents, the council in 2010 shortened work shift caps for first-year residents to 16 hours and strongly recom- mended “strategic napping.” Critics of the shorter limit said it short-changed rookie doctors. Dr. Karl Bilimoria, a Northwestern University surgery professor, said some residents have complained that they’ve had to leave work in the middle of surgeries. Bilimoria led a study published last year suggesting that first-year residents could work longer without endan- gering patient safety or their own well-being. The research was among published find- ings that helped persuade panel to recommend lifting the 16-hour cap. The coun- cil’s board approved the recommendation in a vote last month. The group delayed announcing the vote until its annual education confer- ence, which ends Sunday in Orlando, Florida. “We all agree that nobody wants tired physicians” said Dr. Rowen Zetterman, board chairman. He said the new rules give training programs more flexibility, help eliminate abrupt handoffs of patients and will enhance teamwork among new doctors and their supervisors. The rules say rookie doctors must have supervisors nearby, and those more experienced doctors can step in if a new resident is exhausted, Zetterman said. Formerly conjoined twins leave hospital PALO ALTO, Calif. (AP) — Formerly conjoined California twins Eva and Erika Sandoval have left the hospital and will be headed home in a few weeks. The 2 ½-year-old Sacra- mento-area girls, who were born conjoined from the chest down, were separated Dec. 6 at Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital Stanford. They were moved from Palo Alto on Thursday to UC Davis Children’s Hospital in Sacramento for inpa- tient rehabilitation before returning home. Pediatric surgeon Dr. Gary Hartman, who led the 50-person team that sepa- rated the twins in a 17-hour operation, says they are doing great and have blossomed in their individual personalities. Lezlie Sterling/The Sacramento Bee via AP, File In this Dec. 6, 2016, file photo, the family of conjoined twins Erika and Eva Sandoval surround them in the pre-operating room the morning of their separation surgery in Palo Alto, Calif. The girls had shared a bladder, liver, parts of their digestive system and a third leg. Each still has one leg. Their parents say each girl retains portions of the organs they shared.
