Un profesor clínico y pedagogo en el Aprendizaje Basado en Problemas / A clinician and pedagogy professor for problem-based learning

Introducción: Las cualificaciones requeridas a un profesor tienen implicaciones en la vinculación laboral, el desarrollo profesoral y la calidad de la formación del recurso humano en salud. Objetivo: Determinar la experticia de un profesor y si existe evidencia empírica de que sus antecedentes en Aprendizaje Basado en Problemas influyan en el aprendizaje de los estudiantes. Métodos: En esta revisión de alcance se buscaron artículos publicados en las bases de datos Medline, Scopus, PubMmed, Google Scholar, EBSCO y ScienceDirect. La búsqueda incluyó, inicialmente, artículos publicados entre 2015 y 2020; luego, se incluyeron los estudios citados en estos artículos para aumentar el número de la muestra. La evaluación fue realizada de manera independiente por dos investigadores. En total, 11 artículos cumplían con los criterios de inclusión. Se extrajeron y analizaron datos sobre las cualidades del profesor del ABP. Resultados: Los estudios que exploran las cualificaciones del docente del Aprendizaje Basado en Problemas son escasos y no existe un criterio unificado sobre la formación y la experiencia requeridas a ellos. Las evidencias empíricas encontradas son cuestionables y muestran vacíos en la comprensión de este problema, aunque sugieren como mejor opción a un profesor experto en medicina y pedagogía. Conclusiones: Estos hallazgos representan un serio defecto del Aprendizaje Basado en Problemas. Una posible solución es integrar la enseñanza de la pedagogía a los currículos médicos para contar con una mayor cantidad de profesores expertos tanto en medicina como en docencia(U)

Introduction: The qualifications required from a professor have implications for job placement, professional development and the quality of health human resource training. Objective: To determine a professor's expertise and whether there is empirical evidence that his or her background in problem-based learning (PBL) influences student learning. Methods: In this scoping review, published articles were searched for in the Medline, Scopus, PubMed, Google Scholar, EBSCO and ScienceDirect databases. The search initially included articles published between 2015 and 2020; then, studies cited in these articles were included to increase the sample number. The assessment was performed independently by two researchers. A sheer number of eleven articles met the inclusion criteria. Data about the qualities of the PBL professor were extracted and analyzed. Results: Studies exploring the qualifications of the PBL professor are scarce, while there is no unified criterion on the training and experience required from them. The empirical evidence found is questionable and shows gaps in the understanding of this problem, although it suggests a professor with expertise in medicine and pedagogy as the best option. Conclusions: These findings represent a serious shortcoming of PBL. A possible solution is to integrate the teaching of pedagogy into medical curricula in order to have a greater number of professors with expertise in both medicine and teaching(AU)

Cuidados paliativos em uma metodologia ativa de ensino / Palliative care in an active teaching methodology / Cuidados paliativos en una metodología de enseñanza activa

Resumo O presente estudo avalia o conhecimento sobre cuidados paliativos de estudantes de medicina dos últimos anos nas universidades que adotam a metodologia de aprendizagem baseada em problemas no Nordeste do Brasil. Observou-se que 78% dos estudantes não tiveram informações suficientes sobre cuidados de pacientes em situação terminal, e apenas 55% conheciam a definição de cuidados paliativos da Organização Mundial da Saúde. Quanto aos conhecimentos específicos, os estudantes demonstraram um nível de acerto insatisfatório nos domínios dispneia, problemas psiquiátricos e gastrintestinais; aceitável no domínio dor e excelente em filosofia dos cuidados paliativos e habilidade de comunicação. Durante o internato houve ganho de conhecimento quanto a manejo da dor, dispneia e problemas psiquiátricos. Portanto, verificou-se que os estudantes entram em contato com o tema, porém apresentam déficit significativo nas questões relacionadas ao manejo de sintomas comuns em cuidados paliativos.

Abstract This study evaluates the knowledge about palliative care of medical students in their final years at universities that adopt problem-based learning methodology in Northeast Brazil. It was observed that 78% of the students did not have sufficient information on the care of terminally ill patients, and only 55% knew the World Health Organization's definition of palliative care. Regarding specific knowledge, students showed an unsatisfactory level of achievement in the domains of dyspnea, psychiatric and gastrointestinal problems; acceptable in the pain domain and excellent in philosophy of palliative care and communication skills. Knowledge regarding pain management, dyspnea and psychiatric problems improved during the internship. Therefore, it was found that students come into contact with the subject but have a significant deficit in issues related to the management of common symptoms in palliative care.

Respecto a los conocimientos específicos, los estudiantes demostraron un insatisfactorio nivel de precisión en los dominios disnea, problemas psiquiátricos y gastrointestinales, aceptable en el dominio dolor y excelente en la filosofía de cuidados paliativos y habilidades de comunicación. En el internado adquirieron conocimientos sobre el manejo del dolor, la disnea y los problemas psiquiátricos. Se constató que los estudiantes tienen contacto con el tema, pero presentan un déficit significativo en temas relacionados con el manejo de los síntomas comunes en los cuidados paliativos.

Por que e como reformar um currículo inovador? Um relato de experiência de Londrina / Why and how to reform an innovative curriculum? An experience report from Londrina

Resumo: Introdução: O curso de graduação em Medicina da Universidade Estadual de Londrina foi o segundo do Brasil a adotar currículo integrado e Aprendizagem Baseada em Problemas (PBL). Apesar de seu currículo inovador ter servido de referência a outras escolas, avaliações recentes mostraram a necessidade de reforma. Relato de experiência: As avaliações sistemáticas do curso indicaram os seguintes problemas: dificuldade de adaptação dos ingressantes à primeira série; desorganização da sequência de conteúdos ao longo do curso; falta de motivação docente para as atividades da primeira à quarta série; necessidade de incluir tópicos obrigatórios e novas tendências; e desgaste da metodologia (PBL) a partir da terceira série. Um amplo trabalho de reforma curricular foi iniciado, baseado na construção coletiva, culminando em mudanças, como: o desenho de uma primeira série mais acolhedora por meio da inclusão de nivelamento de ciências básicas e mentoria; a reorganização cronológica dos conteúdos; o redesenho dos módulos, agora organizados ao redor de grandes áreas ou especialidades afins; a adoção de metodologias ativas mais motivadoras; e a inclusão de novos conteúdos. Discussão: A adoção de novas metodologias ativas em substituição à PBL em alguns momentos apresenta vantagens estratégicas. A Aprendizagem Baseada em Equipes (TBL), mais estruturada que a PBL, pode ajudar na adaptação dos ingressantes à primeira série e facilitar a realização de metodologias ativas num contexto de escassez de docentes. A Aprendizagem Baseada em Casos (CBL) é mais motivadora e pode ser mais efetiva para desenvolver habilidades de raciocínio clínico nas séries pré-internato. Conclusão: O novo currículo, que incorpora as mudanças mencionadas, foi implantado em 2022. Novas avaliações mostrarão se as mudanças trarão melhorias ao curso em termos de adaptação, motivação e resultados de aprendizagem.

Abstract: Introduction: The undergraduate medical course of the State University of Londrina was the second in Brazil to adopt an integrated curriculum and Problem-Based Learning (PBL). Despite its innovative curriculum, which became a reference for other schools, new assessments showed the need to reform it. Experience Report: Systematic course evaluations showed some issues: difficulties in adaptation of new students attending the first year; disorganized sequence of contents throughout the course; teachers' lack of motivation for activities from first to the fourth years; need to include new contents; and deterioration of the methodology (PBL) in third and fourth years. A wide collective effort for curricular reform was initiated, which led to important changes, such as: a more welcoming first year, by including mentoring and activities for the leveling of basic knowledge; chronological reorganization of contents; redesign of modules around great areas of knowledge or related specialties; adoption of new and more motivating active learning and teaching methodologies, and the inclusion of new topics/trends. Discussion: The adoption of other active learning and teaching methodologies present strategic advantages in replacement for PBL. Team-Based Learning (TBL) is a more structured method than PBL, so it can help newcomers to adapt to the first year and make it easier to implement active methodologies in a context of teacher shortage. Case-Based Learning (CBL) generates higher motivation and can be more effective to foster the development of clinical reasoning skills in the preclinical years. Conclusion: The new curriculum, incorporating the changes described above, started in 2022. Further evaluations will show whether the changes will improve the course in terms of adaptability, motivation and learning outcomes.

Exploring the application of inquiry-based defensive teaching based on the internet and clinical resources during probationary teaching of dermatovenereology / 中华皮肤科杂志

As a clinical compulsory course, dermatovenereology is characterized by various diseases, complex etiology, and distinct morphological characteristics, and its teaching during the probation period is faced with many challenges. Based on today′s rich educational resources on the internet, and combined with rich clinical resources in large hospitals, the traditional teacher-led lecturing during the probation period needs to be changed, and the adoption of inquiry-based defensive teaching mode has obvious advantages over the traditional teacher-led teaching mode. In the inquiry-based defensive teaching mode, clinical teachers design a series of clinical questions based on clinical topics, then introduce network teaching videos to students to change classroom teaching into students′ after-class learning, induce students to actively explore issues, encourage them to work together in groups to excavate clinical resources, make presentations and organize defense. This teaching mode turns the traditional teacher-led probationary class into a student-led and teacher-assisted speculative defense session, thereby improving learning efficiency and quality, and promoting the cultivation of students′ core literacy and comprehensive ability. Undergraduates are the main target group of this teaching mode, and this mode can also be adopted in the teaching of postgraduates and resident doctors in the standardized training program for the organization of teaching activities and optimization of assessment modes.

Application of scenario simulation teaching based on PBL in communication ability training of Pediatric Hematology Department / 中华医学教育探索杂志

Objective:To explore the application of scenario simulation teaching based on PBL in communication skills training of hematology students in Children's Hospital.Methods:The training of doctor-patient communication skills was conducted among trainees who had the standardized residency training at the Department of Hematology of the Children's Hospital of Soochow University. All the residents were randomized into the control group and observation group by lottery, with 24 residents in each group. The control group adopted the traditional narrative teaching method, and the observation group adopted PBL combined with scenario simulation teaching method. The Liverpool communication skills assessment scale (LCSAS) was used to compare the differences between the two groups before and after training, and the differences between the two groups after training. Then the degree of residents' recognition of these two teaching methods was investigated. Finally, the examination results were used to evaluate knowledge mastery of doctors in department of hematology. SPSS 20.0 was used for Chi-square test and t-test. Results:LCSAS scores of the two groups before training were respectively (11.61±2.21) and (11.95±2.22), with no statistically significant difference ( P >0.05). After PBL-based scenario simulation teaching and training in the observation group, the LCSAS score of the observation group (27.41±2.53) was higher than that of the control group (23.30±1.81), and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Questionnaire survey results showed that the favorable rating rate of PBL-based scenario simulation teaching was 91.67% (22/24), higher than that of the traditional narrative teaching method [62.50% (15/24)], and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). The examination of students' mastery of professional knowledge showed that after the PBL-based scenario simulation teaching and training, the trainees had a better grasp of knowledge and a higher score, with excellence rate of 91.67% (22/24）, which was higher than 66.67% (16/24) of the control group, with a statistically significant difference ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The scenario simulation teaching based on PBL could improve the communication ability and professional knowledge of trainees taking standardized residency training in the department of hematology, and the trainees are highly satisfied with this teaching method.

Application evaluation of evidence-based medicine concept-based problem-based learning teaching mode in the clinical practice teaching of an orthopedic department / 中华医学教育探索杂志

Objective:To investigate the effect of application of problem-based learning (PBL) combined with evidence-based medicine (EBM) in clinical practice teaching of an orthopedic department.Methods:A total of 48 interns who entered Department of Orthopedics, The Second Hospital of Anhui Medical University, Hefei, China from June 2017 to June 2018 were randomly divided into experimental group (the PBL combined with EBM concept teaching group, n = 24) and control group (the traditional teaching group, n = 24). In the experimental group, teachers selected typical cases, designed questions with certain flexibility and complexity, and organized the students to consult the literature, discuss in groups, and report and summarize around the practical problems. In the control group, traditional indoctrination teaching was adopted according to the clinical experience of the teachers. The teaching effect was assessed by a questionnaire survey, a theoretical examination, and a clinical skill examination. The results were analyzed by t-test and Chi-square test using SPSS 16.0 software. Results:The questionnaire survey showed that compared with the control group, the experimental group gave a significantly better evaluation of the teaching methods they received in terms of improving their theoretical knowledge comprehension ability, comprehensive analysis ability, team collaboration awareness, document retrieval and language expression ability, stimulating their learning motivation, and enhancing their scientific thinking and innovation ability ( P < 0.05). Furthermore, compared with the control group, the experimental group had significantly higher mean scores for both the theoretical test (92.42±2.55 vs. 86.17±3.36, P < 0.05) and the clinical skill test (85.79±3.15 vs. 78.88±3.41, P < 0.05). Conclusion:The application of PBL teaching in orthopedic practice, with the concept of EBM throughout the teaching process, has obtained a good effect. It can improve the clinical teaching quality in orthopedics, improve the comprehensive quality of clinical medical students, inspire their active learning enthusiasm, and cultivate their creative thinking, problem construction, comprehensive analysis, literature retrieval, and communication ability.

Case-problem-based learning of pathophysiology based on inquiry-based learning and process management / 中华医学教育探索杂志

Based on the teaching concept of constructivism, this study aims to promote independent inquiry-based learning and clinical thinking among students and establish the guiding ideology of "full participation, process control, in-depth discussion, and expansion of thinking". A blending learning model was adopted with offline inquiry-based group learning and in-class defense and comment, as well as online teacher-student interaction and supervision to promote learning. Case-problem-based learning (CPBL) of pathophysiology was carried out among the medical students in the class of 2017, and process management was strengthened to effectively manage the two key links of data retrieval and group discussion. The analysis of 176 teaching evaluations collected at the end of the semester show that in terms of the overall evaluation of CPBL teaching, 162 students (92.05%) had high evaluation on teaching objectives, organization, cases, and personal gains and held a very or relatively favorable attitude. There were more negative feedbacks on "appropriate time allocation"; 21 students (11.93%) held a relatively or very disapproving attitude, and 149 students (84.66%) "felt very tired". In terms of teaching effect evaluation, 150 students (85.23%) strongly or relatively agreed that CPBL teaching may help to understand professional knowledge, stimulate learning enthusiasm and initiative, improve problem solving ability, emphasize clinical practice to cultivate clinical thinking, supervise and promote learning, and enhance team cooperation and teacher-student communication. In terms of the evaluation of teachers, 167 students (94.89%) thought that teachers were rigorous, responsible, and enthusiastic in teaching, attached importance to process management, and did well in effective guidance and thinking inspiration (strongly or relatively agree). The above results suggest that the CPBL teaching reform of pathophysiology based on process management can effectively promote in-depth inquiry-based independent learning and the cultivation of clinical thinking and improve teaching effectiveness, but further improvement is needed for teaching arrangement and time allocation.

Abstract Background Studies have shown a low accuracy of urgent care physicians in interpreting electrocardiogram (ECG) in severe cardiovascular conditions. Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of an ECG learning method in internal medicine internships and to know the perception of interns regarding learning before and after the methodology. Methods This study used a database with the results of an ECG pre- and post-test of the classes in the internal medicine internship from 2017 to 2022. A qualitative questionnaire was sent with questions for self-assessment of perception of learning. Results The study included a total of 227 students, 161 of whom (70.9%) were female. The mean age was 26.4 ± 4.2 years old. The pre-test mean was 3.75 ± 2.0 points, and the post-test mean was 8.48 ± 1.5 points, showing a statistically significant difference, even after stratification by sex, age, and course period (p < 0.001 for all comparisons). Sixty-nine (30%) of the students responded to the qualitative questionnaire. The three predominant feelings prior to learning were despair, fear, and insecurity. After the Club, the predominant feelings were security, tranquility, and confidence. Conclusion The level of prior knowledge regarding ECG was low among students in the medical internship, and the proposed methodology was effective for learning ECG, regardless of age, sex, or course period. It was possible to transform negative beliefs regarding ECG learning and make learning meaningful and enjoyable. A more incisive look at medical courses for learning the ECG in a more practical and contextualized way can improve this scenario.
