abstract: 'Purpose: Gender disparities in healthcare are striking, notwithstanding
an increase in female students and physicians. Underrepresentation of
women in leadership positions is well-documented; however, information
fromlowand middle-income countries (LMICs) is still sparse. The
Argentinian Society of Intensive Care Medicine (SATI) aimed to
characterize the gender composition in Argentine ICUs.
Methods and results: Between 8/1/2018 and 1/1/2019, 131 questionnaires
were submitted to ICU Department Chairs of SATI research networks.
Gender distribution of the different staffing levels, board
certification and hospital characteristics were recorded.
One-hundred and four were completed, including 2186 physicians; 44\%
were female. Female participation decreased with highest responsibility:
only 23\% of Department Chairs were female (P = .002 vs. the rest of the
staffing categories, adjusted for multiple comparisons). Residents
exhibited the highest proportion of female physicians (47\%). Board
certification was similar for both sexes (62.3\% vs. 62.2\%, P=. 97).
Female/male distribution in public and private hospitals was 47\%/53\%
and 40/60\% (P < .01), respectively.
Conclusion: Our data provide evidence of an important gender gap in ICU
management in a LMIC. Women were poorly represented in the leadership
positions, although qualifications were similar to men. Moreover, female
physicians worked more frequently in the public health subsector,
usually underfinanced in LMICs-a surrogate of a gender pay gap. (C) 2019
