Abstract
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has led
to unprecedented disruptions in fellowship training programs
worldwide. In gastroenterology, the strain in healthcare service
provision and the emphasis on preventing viral transmission has
adversely impacted hands-on training opportunities, with trainees
facing the constant pressure to meet training requirements under
the continuous threat of viral transmission. Emerging evidence
highlight the scale of the problem, specifically with regard to
endoscopy competence due to cancellation of elective endoscopic
procedures, provision of inpatient and outpatient consultative
care as well as academic education and the mental well-being of
trainees. As such, it has been necessary for trainees, trainers and
training programs collectively to adapt to these challenges and
incorporate novel and adaptive solutions to circumvent these
training barriers. This review aims to summarise data on the global
impact of COVID-19 on gastroenterology training and the practical
interventions that could be implemented.
