Abstract
BACKGROUND: The field of paediatric hospital medicine (PHM) is evolving to meet the needs of an increasingly complex paediatric population, lead quality improvement initiatives, and conduct field-specific teaching and research. Over 50 subspecialty PHM fellowship programs exist in the USA and Canada and more are under active development to ensure trainees are prepared to perform competencies specific to the field following transition to independent practice. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to assess the perceived preparedness of recently graduated general paediatric residents and recently certified staff paediatricians in Canada with respect to the practice of PHM. METHODS: A survey based on the 'Objectives of Training in Pediatrics' of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada (RCPSC) was distributed to graduating paediatric residents and recently graduated staff paediatricians (2013 to 2017) practicing in the hospital setting. Qualitative comments were also obtained. RESULTS: Fifty-five surveys were completed (50%). Respondents perceived that, at the on-set of starting practice, they would require assistance or consultation with the majority of representative PHM task competencies. Differences in perception between the two groups were minimal. Our study identified sub-sets of perceived areas of particular strengths (Professional) and deficiencies (Medical Expert, Manager, and Scholar). CONCLUSIONS: Results may help inform future curricula for general paediatric residency programs and provide insight into competencies that may be better targeted for PHM fellowship training programs. This study may also stimulate discussion regarding entrustable professional activities for paediatric curricula as the medical community shifts to a new paradigm of outcome-based assessment.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
