Abstract
In 2011, the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) further limited duty hours for residents beyond the 80-hour workweek limit. They limited PHY-1 residents to 16-hour shifts separated by at least 8 off-duty hours, and 14 off-duty hours for more senior residents. Although studies evaluating the 2011 policy have not shown improvements in nonspecific measures of morbidity and mortality of patients, these outcomes may not reflect changes in more specialty-specific practice patterns and secondary quality measures.
