Departments of Gynecology and Obstetrics, as other departments, were faced with a major challenge at the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. Fast restructuring was necessary in order to provide the means for COVID-related care. In this article we share our 1-year experience in reshaping our activities, managing healthcare workers and securing a pathway for pregnant patients, including potential, and confirmed COVID-19 cases. Priorities were set on ensuring patients' and healthcare workers' safety. Key containment measures included facemasks, systematic screening, dedicated spaces for COVID-19 cases with reinforced measures and vaccination campaign.

Objective: To know the current publication of Anesthesiology and Obstetrics and Gynecology subareas, to support the updating of Qualis Journals criteria in these specific subareas. Method: Cross-sectional, descriptive study in which was evaluated in quantitatively and qualitatively way the bibliographic production of Anesthesiology and Obstetrics and Gynecology subareas, from January 2010 to December 2012. Were investigated the values of the impact factor; calculated (i) the number (n) and the percentage of journals in each stratum Qualis A1, A2, B1, B2, B3, B4 and B5, and (ii) the median values and their extreme limits (minimum values and maximum) and quartiles (p25; p50; p75; p90) of the impact factors in the different strata. Results: The bibliographic production of the three-year period 2010-2012 was published in 69 journals in Anesthesiology subarea and in 345 in Gynecology and Obstetrics. In Anesthesiology, 44% were within the limits of impact factor of superior A1, A2 and B1; in Obstetrics and Gynecology, 42.4% were in those limits and strata. Conclusions: Despite lagging behind by international standards, publications of Anesthesiology and Obstetrics and Gynecology showed tendency to improve the quality. In these sub-areas, the median of journals impact factor is beyond the limits defined by the area in the last assessment. Therefore, it must be reconsidered new indicators to assess this aspect.

Background: Although burnout levels and the corresponding risk factors have been studied in many nursing services, to date no meta-analytical studies have been undertaken of obstetrics and gynecology units to examine the heterogeneity of burnout in this environment and the variables associated with it. In the present paper, we aim to determine the prevalence, levels, and related factors of burnout syndrome among nurses working in gynecology and obstetrics services. Methods: A systematic review and meta-analysis of the literature were carried out using the following sources: CINAHL (Cumulative Index of Nursing and Allied Health Literature), LILACS (Latin American and Caribbean Health Sciences Literature), Medline, ProQuest (Proquest Health and Medical Complete), SciELO (Scientific Electronic Library Online), and Scopus. Results: Fourteen relevant studies were identified, including, for this meta-analysis, n = 464 nurses. The following prevalence values were obtained: emotional exhaustion 29% (95% CI: 11–52%), depersonalization 19% (95% CI: 6–38%), and low personal accomplishment 44% (95% CI: 18–71%). The burnout variables considered were sociodemographic (age, marital status, number of children, gender), work-related (duration of the workday, nurse-patient ratio, experience or number of miscarriages/abortions), and psychological (anxiety, stress, and verbal violence). Conclusion: Nurses working in obstetrics and gynecology units present high levels of burnout syndrome. In over 33% of the study sample, at least two of the burnout dimensions considered are apparent.

Abstract: Introduction: This article features “Entrustable Professional Activities (EPAs)” in the Obstetrics and Gynecology field designed for medical undergraduates, aiming to support the teaching/learning process. Objective: The aim is for the graduate to be competent to meet the minimum requirements necessary for the student in this field. Method: In this study, EPAs were created based on an international template already in use and validated using the Delphi technique. The structuring of the EPAs was based on the international literature: “Core Entrustable Professional Activities for Entering Residency: Curriculum Developer’s Guide” from the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC). The content for the topics of each EPA was based on the publication “The Obstetrics and Gynecology Milestone Project” from the joint action of the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME), the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology (ACOG) and the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology (ABOG). Results: Thirteen EPAs were created with topics for teaching in that field during undergraduate school. A checklist was created for each EPA, aiming to guide the evaluator and the student regarding the performance of the tasks defined in the EPAs. Conclusion: The EPAs with checklists bring an innovative proposal for Obstetrics and Gynecology teaching in medical graduation since they facilitate and operationalize the learning, the development, and the observation of the acquisition of knowledge, skills and attitudes required for the performance of each topic in the area, thus helping the training of a competent professional. At the end of the medical course, the ability to perform all EPAs identifies a competent graduate in Gynecology and Obstetrics regarding the general practitioner.
