[Misuse by hospitals of positions for junior physicians].

In Norway, some positions for junior hospital doctors are designated for clinical research combined with routine clinical work. However, in this survey among 124 doctors holding such positions at seven Norwegian university hospitals, only 35 of 98 doctors (36%) were given sufficient time for clinical research. The survey demonstrates that heavy clinical work load, pressure for clinical "productivity" and limited economic resources are important obstacles to clinical research.
