目的：尽管欧洲各国在所有层面和生活的各个领域日益紧密地融合在一起，但整个欧洲的心胸外科培训仍然是多样化和多种多样的。再加上整个欧洲的流动变得越来越容易，出现了对统一培训计划的需求，以允许同等的认可和认证。方法：我们回顾了世界各地和欧洲该专业目前的培训模式，并探索了能力的概念。结果：世界各地，特别是欧洲，有不同的培训系统。基于能力的培训是一种新的培训模式，然而，能力的定义和测量仍然是困难的。我们提出了一项欧洲心胸外科培训计划，旨在使欧洲各国的培训标准化。结论：在整个欧洲统一培训方面的困难很多，但现在是时候实施欧洲心胸外科培训系统，它将提供基于能力的课程。
OBJECTIVE: Training in cardiothoracic surgery across Europe remains diverse and variable despite the ever closer integration of European countries at all levels and in all areas of life. Coupled with the increasing ease of movement across Europe, the need for uniform training programmes has arisen to allow for equivalent accreditation and certification.METHODS: We review the current training paradigms within the specialty across the world and in Europe and also explore the concept of competence.RESULTS: There are diverse training systems across the world and in Europe in particular. Competence-based training is the new model of training; however, competence remains difficult to define and measure. We propose a European Training Programme in Cardiothoracic Surgery that aims to standardize training across the European countries.CONCLUSIONS: The difficulties in unifying training across Europe are numerous, but it is time to implement a European Training System in Cardiothoracic Surgery that will deliver a competence-based curriculum.
