Effects of Reducing or Eliminating Resident Work Shifts over 16 Hours: A Systematic Review
Open accessAbstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES: The Institute of Medicine (IOM) has called for the elimination of resident work shifts exceeding 16 hours without sleep. We sought to comprehensively evaluate the effects of eliminating or reducing shifts over 16 hours. DESIGN AND OUTCOME MEASURES: We performed a systematic review of published and unpublished studies (1950-2008) to synthesize data on all intervention studies that have reduced or eliminated U.S. residents' extended shifts. A total of 2,984 citations were identified initially, which were independently reviewed by two authors to determine their eligibility for inclusion. All outcomes relevant to quality of life, education, and safety were collected. Study quality was rated using the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force methodology. MEASUREMENTS AND RESULTS: Twenty-three studies met inclusion criteria (kappa = 0.88 [95% CI, 0.77-0.94] for inclusion decisions). Following reduction or elimination of extended shifts, 8 of 8 studies measuring resident quality of life found improvements. Four of 14 studies that assessed educational outcomes found improvements, 9 found no significant changes, and one found education worsened. Seven of 11 identified statistically significant improvements in patient safety or quality of care; no studies found that safety or care quality worsened. CONCLUSIONS: In a systematic review, we found that reduction or elimination of resident work shifts exceeding 16 hours did not adversely affect resident education, and was associated with improvements in patient safety and resident quality of life in most studies. Further multi-center studies are needed to substantiate these findings, and definitively measure the effects of eliminating extended shifts on patient outcomes.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
