Just curious what kind of didactics experience you may have had. Given that protected didactics are an ACGME requirement (I think), I see this as two likely paths:
1. Protected didactics - Attendings or APPs cover the service while you are in lecture. It is not simply them holding the pager & having you do the work when you get back. They see new consults during this time.
2. "Protected" didactics - Attendings, APPs, or program coordinators may hold your pager, but ultimately nothing is done until you are out of lecture & get back to work.
Where does/did your program fall? Do you see any solutions to making didactics safely accessible for residents without simply increasing their work burden by delaying work?
