摘要：Background Research is fundamental in the post-graduate areas of medicine, since it helps the resident doctors to develop aptitudes that will allow them to use evidence based medicine, as well as to increase research in basic and clinics sciences, and to generate new knowledge. Methods A descriptive, cross-sectional study was carried out to assess the scientific production of graduated physicians from clinical-surgical specialisations of the Universidad Surcolombiana . A univariate descriptive analysis and bivariate analysis was performed, as well as the calculation of the prevalence ratio, using Chi-squared and the Fisher exact test. Results The total number of publications was 161, with general surgery being the specialisation with the highest number of publications (n = 79), with an article being the most frequent type of publication (86%). The mean of publication by graduated physicians was 0.76, and a relationship was observed between teaching links and publication ( p = .0024). Conclusions Scientific production by graduate physicians from clinical-surgical specialisations of the health faculty of the Universidad Surcolombiana varies between different courses. Based on the results obtained, there is evidence for the need of strengthening and promoting research, as well as support to publish in the clinical-surgical specialisations.
