چکیده
Objective: The recently developed technological advances in urology are a challenge, both for the urologists responsible training activities, as well residents. This has led to heterogeneous residency programs; terms of and access these technologies, among scientific societies countries that make up American Confederation Urology (CAU, by its Spanish initials). aim this study was collect relevant information perform situational analysis promote development more homogeneous programs future professionals urology. Methodology: A closed survey using CAU EDUCACIÓN platform included twenty-seven multiple-choice questions between September 2019 2020. Results: difference found, above all, duration residencies, accreditations, possibility publication journals, modalities, technology subsequent job opportunities. Limitations: main limitation number participants, which much lower than total active Despite this, participating countries, distribution, results obtained, allowed us assess current Conclusion: It is important gain insight about residencies Ibero-America, establish specific uniform plan ensure proper training, regardless unit occurs.
