Análisis del conocimiento sobre los inhibidores selectivos de la recaptura de serotonina (ISRS) en el manejo de la depresión por médicos residentes y concurrentes de clínica médica de 5 hospitales de CABA / Review of the Knowledge on Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs) for Depression Management by Resident and Intern Physicians of the Medical Clinic of 5 Hospitals in CABA

Introducción: la depresión es un trastorno cada vez más prevalente alrededor del mundo. Los médicos generales son los profesionales de la salud más consultados por pacientes deprimidos. Más del 70% de los pacientes con depresión son vistos por médicos generales y no por especialistas en Psiquiatría. Según estudios realizados en Buenos Aires, más del 25% de los pacientes internados en Servicios de Clínica Médica en hospitales generales presenta depresión. Estos pacientes suelen ser atendidos y seguidos por médicos en formación, sean residentes o concurrentes de Clínica Médica. El objetivo del trabajo fue analizar el conocimiento sobre los inhibidores selectivos de la recaptura de serotonina (ISRS) que tienen los médicos residentes y concurrentes de Clínica Médica de 5 hospitales de la Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires (CABA) y describir el tratamiento de un paciente depresivo por ellos. Material y métodos: se realizó un estudio descriptivo de corte transversal con un muestreo de tipo no probabilístico. Se utilizó como instrumento de medición un cuestionario semiestructurado organizado en dos secciones, una de datos demográficos que permiten caracterizar la muestra. La otra, de 15 ítems, explora los conocimientos sobre los ISRS y el tratamiento de la depresión. Dicho cuestionario fue revisado por 4 expertos. El instrumento es anónimo. Se aplicó a 59 médicos en formación en Clínica Médica, residentes y concurrentes, de 5 hospitales de la CABA, que participaron de forma voluntaria, durante el período agosto-septiembre de 2022. Resultados: la mayoría de los médicos en formación en Clínica Médica no tratan cuadros depresivos y, ante un paciente deprimido, solicitan la evaluación por un especialista en Salud Mental. Solo un 6,8% lo medica con un antidepresivo. Más del 75% de la muestra refiere recordar los conocimientos que tiene sobre de los ISRS de la cursada de Farmacología y un 13,6 de la cursada de Psiquiatría en la Facultad de Medicina. Conclusión: se observa un conocimiento deficitario sobre los ISRS en médicos residentes y concurrentes de Clínica Médica. Se considera necesario reforzar la formación sobre depresión y manejo de antidepresivos durante la residencia/concurrencia de Clínica Médica. (AU)

Introduction: depression is an increasingly common disorder around the world. General practitioners are the most frequently consulted health professionals by depressed patients. More than 70% of all depressed patients receive treatment by general practitioners and not by psychiatric specialists. According to studies conducted in Buenos Aires, more than 25% of all patients admitted to the Clinical Services in public hospitals present depression. These patients are usually under the care and follow-up of clinical trainee physicians, residents, or interns.This study aimed to analyze the knowledge about selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) of clinical trainee residents and interns in five hospitals in the Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires (CABA) and to describe their treatment of a depressive patient. Material and methods: we conducted a descriptive cross-sectional study with a non-probabilistic sampling. We used a semi-structured questionnaire arranged into two sections as a measuring tool. One, with demographic data to describe the sample. The other, with 15 items, explores respondents' knowledge of SSRIs and the treatment of depression. Four experts reviewed the questionnaire, which was anonymous. We applied it to 59 clinical medical trainees, residents, and interns from five CABA hospitals who volunteered to participate during August-September 2022. Results: most clinical trainees do not treat depressive conditions and, when confronted with a depressed patient, request an assessment by a Mental Health specialist. Only 6.8% medicate the patient with an antidepressant. More than 75% of the sample reported remembering their knowledge of SSRIs from the Pharmacology course and 13.6% from the Psychiatry course at the School of Medicine. Conclusion: there is a deficient knowledge about SSRIs in trainee residents and interns of Clínica Médica. We believe it is necessary to reinforce training on depression and management of antidepressants during residency/internship practice in Clínica Médica. (AU)

A total of 286 GPRs (65.9%) thought that they were able to independently complete some procedures such as abdominal puncture, lumbar puncture, chest puncture, and bone puncture, and the proportion of GPRs who were able to complete the above procedures increased with the training time (49.3%(73/148), 70.2%(92/131), and 78.1%(121/155) in 2020, 2019, and 2018 batches, respectively, χ2=29.39, P<0.001); 372 respondents (85.7%) thought that they were able to independently receive patients with common diseases and make preliminary diagnosis and treatment, while there was no significant difference in the proportion of GPRs enrolled in 2020, 2019, and 2018 ( χ2=3.35, P=0.188); 425 GPRs (97.9%) expressed that the base arranged rotation according to the training syllabus; 390 GPRs (89.9%) thought that the proportion of knowledge and skill assessment in the final examination was appropriate. The survey showed that 70 GPRs (16.1%) thought that the number of cases and types of diseases in the teaching base fully met the requirements of the training program, 144 GPRs (33.2%) thought that mostly met the requirements, 197 GPRs (45.4%) thought that basically met the requirements, 22 GPRs (5.1%) thought that most of them did not meet the requirements, and 1 GPR (0.2%) thought that completely did not meet the requirements. Most of the respondents (368 (84.8%)) reported that they received guidance from clinical instructors for medical record writing; 174 (40.1%) and 172 (39.6%) GPRs were very satisfied or satisfied with general practice teachers and teaching base instructors; 207 GPRs (47.7%) were satisfied with accommodation (or subsidies), while 38 GPRs (8.3%) were very dissatisfied; 203 GPRs (46.8%) were satisfied with basic salary and benefit, while 35 GPRs (8.1%) were very dissatisfied. For general practice as the career, 88 GPRs (20.3%) liked it very much, 255 GPRs (58.8%) liked it, 67 GPRs (15.4%) did not like it very much, and 24 GPRs (5.5%) disliked it. For the prospects of general practice, 108 GPRs (24.9%) considered it very optimistic, 219 GPRs (50.5%) considered it relatively optimistic, 92 GPRs (21.2%) considered it not very optimistic, and 15 GPRs (3.5%) considered it very pessimistic. Regarding employment intentions, 174 GPRs (40.1%) intended to choose municipal hospitals, 170 GPRs (39.2%) to choose county level hospitals, only 9 GPRs (2.1%) to choose village clinics. Conclusions:The survey indicates that for GPRs the most dissatisfied aspects are the salary and benefit, as well as the living conditions during their training; after completing the contract, most GPRs hope to work in hospitals at county and above levels.

Application and effect of virtual-reality surgery simulation system in minimally invasive cataract surgery training for ophthalmology residents / 国际眼科杂志(Guoji Yanke Zazhi)

@#AIM: To investigate the application and effect of virtual-reality surgery exercise in minimally invasive cataract surgery training for ophthalmology residents.<p>METHODS:Twenty ophthalmology residents with equal seniority who had completed 3a standardized residency training in the Affiliated Eye Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from 2019 to 2021 were prospectively enrolled. After passing the theoretical examination, residents were randomly divided into virtual surgery exercise(Dry-lab)group(<i>n</i>=10)and real animal surgery exercise(Wet-lab)group(<i>n</i>=10). Dry-lab and Wet-lab group residents performed training using the Eye SI surgical simulator and pig eye respectively. At the end of the training, the overall training effects of the residents in both groups were rated using the Eye SI surgical simulator and the real pig eye operation, and the module training effects of the residents in both groups were rated using the virtual surgical simulator. Furthermore, a questionnaire survey was used to objectively evaluate the two training methods.<p>RESULTS:Residents in Dry-lab group had significantly higher total scores on both operation assessments,simulator assessment and real pig eye operation assessment than Wet-lab group(88.03±1.34 <i>vs</i> 80.35±2.87, 87.50±3.03 <i>vs</i> 77.60±5.62, 88.57±1.89 <i>vs</i> 83.10±3.22, all <i>P</i><0.01). The simulator module assessment results showed that the residents in Dry-lab group scored significantly better than Wet-lab group in terms of scores and completion time on each module(<i>P</i><0.01). The questionnaire results showed that Dry-lab group rated better than Wet-lab group in terms of the novelty of training, the proximity to the real surgical experience, the degree of help to the improvement of microsurgery skills, the confidence to perform real surgery, and the overall satisfaction of surgical training(<i>P</i><0.05). <p>CONCLUSION:Applying virtual-reality surgery exercise to cataract surgery skills training for ophthalmology residents can significantly improve the cataract skills, increase overall training satisfaction, and help residents enhance their confidence, psychological quality, decision-making, and processing ability during real surgery at the initial stage of practice. This provides a new standard and model for establishing a formal and standardized cataract surgery training system for ophthalmology residents.

Knowledge, attitude, practices, and barriers in conducting research among resident physicians in Cagayan Valley Medical Center

Background@#Medical research is undoubtedly an essential tool in improving health care. Thus, every resident physician should participate in health research activities to keep his knowledge and training up-to-date. Although research is incorporated in residency training, several studies have shown that much is still lacking in terms of the residents’ knowledge, attitude, and practices in research.@*Objective@#To determine the knowledge, attitude, practices, and barriers in conducting research among resident physicians in Cagayan Valley Medical Center.@*Methods@#This study utilized a descriptive survey design. Purposive sampling with total enumeration was done. A total of 108 resident trainees were included in the study. Validated questionnaires were used to assess the residents’ knowledge, attitude, practices, and barriers in conducting research. @*Results@#The level of research knowledge of the resident trainees is below average, and their overall research practice is poor. On the contrary, the residents’ attitude towards research is positive. The residents’ level of research knowledge significantly differed across age (p=0.010) and year level (p=0.012). The trainees’ research attitude significantly differed in terms of current involvement in research (p=0.048). The top three barriers identified were lack of research training and skills, insufficient time allotted for research, and lack of statistical support.@*Conclusion@#There is a need to fill the gap between the residents’ positive attitude and their below average level of knowledge and poor practice in research. Addressing the barriers in conducting research is also needed to improve the overall standards of research among the residents.

Anxiety and depression among students before finishing the standardized resident training program / 第二军医大学学报

Objective: To understand the anxiety and depression status of students before finishing the standardized resident training program (SRTP) and the influencing factors, so as to provide evidence-based basis for improving the mental health and management system for those residents. Methods: A questionnaire survey was conducted by combining the self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) and the self-rating depression scale (SDS). The participants were the graduating students of SRTP from two affliated hospitals of a military medical university, and they were surveyed and analyzed in Jul. 2018. Results: A total of 252 questionnaires were distributed and 252 valid questionnaires were returned, with a recovery rate of 100%. There were 123 (48.8%) males and 129 (51.2%) females, with an average age of (28.3 ± 2.1) years old. There were 87 (34.5%) undergraduate students, 138 (54.8%) master degree student, and 27 (10.7%) doctor degree students. Twenty-seven (10.7%) students were trained for one year, 96 (38.1%) for 2 years, and 129 (51.2%) for 3 years. There were 151 (59.9%) students from "985" universities or "211" universities (key universities in China), and 101 (40.1%) from other universities. Twenty (7.9%) participants were in military service. We found that 94.4% (238/252) of the graduating students were in an anxious state and 60.3% (152/252) in a depress state. The severity of anxiety was related to the length of training (χ2=14.214, P = 0.027). Depression was related to the type of university ("985" or "211" universities vs others, χ2 = 5.691, P = 0.017; military colleges vs regional colleges, χ2 = 5.069, P = 0.024). No relation was found between depression and anxiety state in the participants (r = 0.025, P = 0.696). Conclusion: Graduating students from SRTP are faced with multiple pressures such as medical job, employment and graduation, and the incidence rates of anxiety and depression are much higher than those of the general population and medical staff. Sufficient attention and intervention measures should be actively taken for prevention of depression and axiety.

Application of mini-clinical evaluation exercise on standardized training of residents in department of nephrology / 中华医学教育探索杂志

Objective@#To observe the effectiveness of mini-clinical evaluation exercise (Mini-CEX) on the standardized training of residents in the department of nephrology.@*Methods@#Mini-CEX was used to evaluate the 80 residents who received clinical standardized training in the department of nephrology from March 2017 to March 2018 in our hospital. The assessment mainly contained seven aspects: medical history taking, physical examination, clinical diagnosis, therapeutic regimen, doctor-patient communication, humanistic care, and overall clinical ability. Meanwhile, a Mini-CEX questionnaire was conducted among 9 teachers and 80 residents, including their viewpiont and satisfaction degree on Mini-CEX. The SPSS 21.0 was used for statistical analysis and the independent sample t-test was used for comparison between the two groups.@*Results@#Through the Mini-CEX assessment, every aspect of clinical competence of residents at the end of this program was significantly higher than that at the early period, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The most obvious improvement in residents was their treatment plan, overall clinical ability and physical examination. About the assessment of therapeutic regimen, the average score at the end of the training was (7.525±1.062), which was better than before (5.175±1.035), and the difference was statistically significant (P=0.000). Besides, clinical diagnosis and humanistic care were significantly better than those at the beginning (P<0.05). About the assessment of clinical diagnosis, the average score after the training was (6.925±1.071), which was better than before (5.425±1.238), and the difference was statistically significant (P=0.000). According to results of Mini-CEX questionnaire, teachers thought that Mini-CEX was a better way of assessment (88.9%) and could promote self-learning (77.8%), while residents believed that Mini-CEX was close to clinical practice and the ward-or-practice-based assessment was relatively comprehensive, which could significantly improve clinical skills (85.0%) and comprehensive quality (87.5%), with a satisfaction degree of 92.5%.@*Conclusion@#Mini-CEX is applied in the standardized training of residents in the department of nephrology, which can effectively improve clinical comprehensive ability of residents and improve Self-learning of teachers.

Experiences and Opinions Related to End-of-Life Discussion: From Oncologists' and Resident Physicians' Perspectives / Journal of the Korean Cancer Association, 대한암학회지

PURPOSE: The aims of this study were to explore how oncologists and resident physicians practice end-of-life (EOL) discussions and to solicit their opinions on EOL discussions as a means to improve the quality of EOL care. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A survey questionnaire was developed to explore the experiences and opinions about EOL discussions among oncologists and residents. Descriptive statistics, the t test, and the chisquare test were performed for the analyses. RESULTS: A total of 147 oncologists and 229 residents participated in this study. The study respondents reported diverse definitions of “terminal state,” and mostrespondents tried to disclose the patient's condition to the patient and/or family members. Both groups were involved in EOL care discussions, with a rather low satisfaction level (57.82/100). The best timing to initiate discussionwas consideredwhen metastasis or disease recurrence occurred orwhen withdrawal of chemotherapy was anticipated. Furthermore, the study respondents suggested that patients and their family members should be included in the EOL discussion. Medical, legal, and ethical knowledge and communication difficulties along with practical issues were revealed as barriers and facilitators for EOL discussion. CONCLUSION: This study explored various perspectives of oncologists and resident physicians for EOL discussion. Since the Life-Sustaining-Treatment Decision-Making Act will be implemented shortly in Korea, now is the time for oncologists and residents to prepare themselves by acquiring legal knowledge and communication skills. To achieve this, education, training, and clinical tools for healthcare professionals are required.

Clinical thinking residents should possess in standardized training in respiratory medicine depart-ment and its training strategies / 中华医学教育探索杂志

Standardized training of resident doctors is the golden stage for clinicians to establish good clinical thinking. Although respiratory disease is common, there are serious and critical diseases, which need to develop clinical thinking and improve the analytical ability. The resident physicians' instructor should help residents to establish the correct diagnostic thinking through the following means: clinical demonstration teaching show, guidance of reading the relevant literature and books, strengthening the basic skills of collecting patients' history and physical examination, and guidance of appropriate use of auxiliary examination and analysis of the results. For the treatment thinking, solid theoretical knowledge and life-long learning ideas and habits can improve the successful rate of initial treatment. Furthermore, being familiar with the efficacy evaluation system and analyzing the reasons for the success and failure of the treatment will help the residents to develop a good therapeutic thinking. The good clinical thinking established by the residents in the department of respiration will be conducive to their own follow-up specialist training and career development.

<b>Survey of Kampo Medicine Awareness in First- and Second-year Resident Physicians at Three General Hospitals in </b><b>Hiroshima</b> / 日本東洋医学雑誌

<p>We conducted a survey of Kampo medicine prescribing rates, and Kampo medicine awareness in first- and second-year resident physicians at three general hospitals in Hiroshima, Japan, to inform future Kampo medicine education strategies.<br>Overall, 85.7% of the resident physicians were interested in Kampo medicine, and 70.8% wanted to practice it. Furthermore, 57.8% of the resident physicians had prescribed Kampo medicine, and of these, about 30% were prescribing it a few times per month, with both the percentage of prescribing physicians and the frequency of prescription being higher than expected. In total, 90.8% of the resident physicians wanted to observe outpatient Kampo medicine clinics and learn about Kampo medicine in their postgraduate clinical training.<br>Overall, 97.4% of the resident physicians thought that seminars and lectures on Kampo medicine are needed, choosing responses that Western medicine is insufficient in some cases (27.0%) and that Kampo medicine is better than Western medicine in some cases (26.4%) among the choices for answers to the need for seminars and lectures. Meanwhile, the reasons for not having an interest in Kampo medicine were : having fewer opportunities to study it ; and feeling that it has a negative image (seeing it as outdated and unscientific). We think that appropriate Kampo medicine education for these physicians would reduce its negative image. The results of this survey suggest that resident physicians need a substantial education in Kampo medicine.</p>

Médicos residentes en México: tradición o humillación / Resident physicians in Mexico: tradition or humiliation

México tiene una gran historia y tradición en la formación de médicos residentes. Pero ¿qué encontramos detrás de este proceso? Relaciones de poder implícitas y explícitas, inadvertidas o ignoradas por conveniencia por parte de las instituciones universitarias y de salud, con el agravante de olvidar su compromiso en la formación de mujeres y hombres profesionales. Los residentes son reducidos a un indicador más de recursos humanos para la salud. El médico residente en formación académico-científica está sumergido en esta vorágine deshumanizada y termina por convertirse en un individuo para el cual el dominio del conocimiento es un instrumento de poder. En este proceso olvida que su actuar y su razón de ser radican en el principio de primun non nocere y de servir. El artículo describe la realidad actual de los residentes en México y propone algunas medidas para mejorar las condiciones en las cuales se desempeñan.

Mexico has a great history and tradition in relation to the training of resident physicians, but what we find behind this process?, Power relations implied and not implied, unnoticed or ignored for convenience by the academic and health institutions, with the aggravation of forgetting its commitment to the training of men and women "professionals" and limited to meet another indicator of "human resources for health." The resident physician in academic and scientific training is immersed in this dehumanized maelstrom and ends up becoming a character for the domain of knowledge as power, forgetting that his act and its rationale lies in the principle of "primum non nocere" to that we would add: nor your person, nor your fellowman, much less whom you have the moral, ethical and civic responsibility to convey some of your knowledge and your experience, that is, part of your essence”.
