RESUMEN
Resumo: Introdução: O raciocínio clínico é considerado uma das principais habilidades que devem ser desenvolvidas pelos estudantes de Medicina, porque permite a elaboração de hipóteses diagnósticas e orienta estratégias investigativas e diagnósticas de forma racional. Embora os educadores tradicionalmente foquem o ensino no modelo hipotético-dedutivo ou analítico, muitos professores de medicina enfrentam no seu dia a dia o desafio de encontrar novas estratégias para ajudar seus estudantes a desenvolver o raciocínio clínico. Objetivo: Este estudo realizou uma revisão integrativa da literatura para identificar as estratégias utilizadas no processo ensino-aprendizagem do raciocínio clínico, nas escolas médicas brasileiras. Método: A metodologia utilizada consistiu em seis etapas: 1. elaboração da pergunta da pesquisa; 2. definição dos critérios de inclusão e exclusão; 3. elenco das informações a serem extraídas; 4. avaliação dos estudos incluídos; 5. interpretação dos resultados; e 6. apresentação da revisão. Resultado: A maioria dos trabalhos apontam que o ensino do raciocínio clínico é realizado por meio de discussões de casos clínicos, de maneira incidental, em diversas disciplinas ou por meio do uso de metodologias ativas, como PBL, TBL e CBL. Apenas três trabalhos apresentados em congressos demonstraram experiências relacionadas à implantação de uma disciplina curricular obrigatória voltada especificamente ao ensino do raciocínio clínico. O ensino do raciocínio clínico é priorizado no internato em relação às fases clínicas e pré-clínicas. Conclusão: Poucos são os estudos que analisam a maneira como se dá o processo ensino-aprendizagem do raciocínio clínico nas escolas médicas brasileiras. Embora mais estudos sejam necessários, podemos verificar a falta de conhecimento teórico sobre raciocínio clínico como uma das principais causas de dificuldade para o desenvolvimento dessa competência pelos estudantes.
Abstract: Introduction: Clinical reasoning is considered one of the main skills that must be developed by medical students, as it allows the establishment of diagnostic hypotheses and directs investigative and diagnostic strategies using a rational approach. Although educators have traditionally focused the teaching method on the analytical model, many medical professors face the challenge in their daily lives of finding new strategies to help their students develop clinical reasoning. Objective: To carry out an integrative literature review to identify the strategies used in the teaching-learning process of clinical reasoning in Brazilian medical schools. Method: The methodology used consists of six steps: 1. creation of the research question; 2. definition of inclusion and exclusion criteria; 3. list of information to be extracted; 4. evaluation of included studies; 5. interpretation of results and 6. presentation of the review. Results: Most studies indicate that the teaching of clinical reasoning is carried out through discussions of clinical cases, incidentally, in different disciplines or through the use of active methodologies such as PBL, TBL and CBL. Only three studies presented at conferences disclosed experiences related to the implementation of a mandatory curricular discipline specifically aimed at teaching clinical reasoning. The teaching of clinical reasoning is prioritized in internships in relation to the clinical and pre-clinical phases. Final considerations: There are few studies that analyze how clinical reasoning is taught to medical students in Brazilian medical schools. Although more studies are needed, we can observe the lack of theoretical knowledge about clinical reasoning as one of the main causes of the students' difficulty in developing clinical reasoning.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVES: New methods for obtaining appropriate information for users have been attempted with the development of information technology and the Internet. Among such methods, the demand for systems and services that can improve patient satisfaction has increased in hospital care environments. METHODS: In this paper, we proposed the Hospital Exam Reservation System (HERS), which uses the data mining method. First, we focused on carrying clinical exam data and finding the optimal schedule for generating rules using the multi-examination pattern-mining algorithm. Then, HERS was applied by a rule master and recommending system with an exam log. Finally, HERS was designed as a user-friendly interface. RESULTS: HERS has been applied at the National Cancer Center in Korea since June 2014. As the number of scheduled exams increased, the time required to schedule more than a single condition decreased (from 398.67% to 168.67% and from 448.49% to 188.49%; p < 0.0001). As the number of tests increased, the difference between HERS and non-HERS increased (from 0.18 days to 0.81 days). CONCLUSIONS: It was possible to expand the efficiency of HERS studies using mining technology in not only exam reservations, but also the medical environment. The proposed system based on doctor prescription removes exams that were not executed in order to improve recommendation accuracy. In addition, we expect HERS to become an effective system in various medical environments.
