Obstetric simulation for undergraduate medical education: how to improve students' self-confidence and expectation according to gender

SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of obstetric simulation training on undergraduate medical students to improve their self-confidence. METHODS: Fifth-year undergraduate medical students were invited to a 2-week course of simulation in obstetrics during their clerkship. The sessions included were as follows: (1) care for the second and third periods of childbirth, (2) partograph analysis and pelvimetry, (3) premature rupture of membranes at term, and (4) diagnosis and management of third-trimester bleeding. Before the first session and at the end of the training period, a questionnaire about self-confidence in obstetric procedures and skills was applied. RESULTS: A total of 115 medical students were included, of whom 60 (52.2%) were male and 55 (47.8%) were female. Comparing initial and final scores, the median results of the subscales "comprehension and preparation" (18 vs. 22, p<0.001), "knowledge of procedures" (14 vs. 20, p<0.001), and "expectation" (22 vs. 23, p<0.01) were significantly higher at the end of the training period in all items of the questionnaire than in the beginning. Differences were found based on the students' gender, i.e., female students had a significantly higher sum of scores than the male students in the initial subscale for "expectation" (median, 24 vs. 22, p<0.001) and "interest" (median, 23 vs. 21, p=0.032), and a higher sum of scores in the subscale for "expectation" (median, 23 vs. 21, p=0.010) in the final questionnaire. CONCLUSION: Obstetric simulation enhances the improvement of students' self-confidence in understanding both the physiology of childbirth and the obstetric care procedures. Further studies are needed to understand the influence of gender on obstetric care.

Construction and application of multidisciplinary scientific research outpatient in clinical research / 中华医院管理杂志

In recent years, some large public hospitals in China had successively opened scientific research outpatients to provide consulting services for clinical research, but there were generally problems such as insufficient audience and single role of expert teams. In July 2021, Shanghai Clinical Research Center established a multidisciplinary scientific research outpatient for the entire clinical research cycle, providing medical staffs with such services as clinical research design and project application, paper revision and achievement transformation. It also provided clerkship for medical students on campus to cultivate their standardized clinical research thinking. As of July 2022, the outpatient had provided research consulting services 16 times, teaching 8 class hours to medical students, and collaborated to solve multi-dimensional clinical research practical problems throughout the entire cycle, such as clinical trial design, project application, and paper publication. Good results had been achieved by this outpatient to provide reference for promoting the development of scientific research outpatients in China and improving the clinical research level of hospitals.

Delivering Electives the Clerkship Way: Consolidating the Student Doctor Method of Training

Student doctor method of clinical training or clinical clerkship provides students with exposure to the entire longitudinal illness of the patient. The students participate in patient care as a part of treating team and can refine their clinical, communication and procedural skills. It provides them with an opportunity to work with the faculty and experience the future workplace. Although the graduate medical education regulations (GMER) provide for student doctor method of training, the time provided is too little and opportunistic. Electives have also been recently added to the new curriculum for the first time. We propose a model to deliver the electives using the clerkship method, so as to consolidate what students learn from the ongoing clerkship. This model is feasible, practical and can be introduced in the current GMER for Indian medical undergraduates without any major disruptions.

Clinical Competence and Perception of Medical Students after Early Clinical Exposure through Pre-clerckship Education at an Ethiopian Medical School: A Cross-sectional Study

BACKGROUND: Conventional medical curriculum is the mainstay in the long history of modern medical education. Innovative integrated medical curriculum attracted significant attention in improving conventional curriculum. In the integrated curriculum, basic sciences are incorporated horizontally with each other, and students are exposed early to clinical settings. This is expected to improve students' knowledge and skills in clinical medicine by the time they start their clerkship rotation. METHOD: the study aims to make a baseline assessment on the overall knowledge and skills of medical students towards clinical medicine. An institution-based cross-sectional study was conducted from March to April of 2020 using 91 third year medical students (convenience sampling). A threesection selfadministered survey instrument, short written MCQ exam, and practical (OSCE) students' examination were used for this survey. RESULT: participants tend to exhibit better knowledge on basics of history taking and physical examination with an average score of 79%. Comparatively, the score for average physical examination skill was low (56.3%). Students' perception on ECE showed, over 50% of participants believe ECE increases burden on their overall workload. Even then, the majority (92.3%) still think that ECE has positive impact on their clerkship education. Taken together, it appears more hands-on interventions is needed to further improve skills of medical students in physical examination with particular emphasis on the clinical examination of breast, thyroid, musculoskeletal, and neurologic systems

Factor analysis of the performance at the medical residency exam, progress test and clerkship rotations performance coefficient / Análise fatorial do desempenho no exame de residência médica, teste de progresso e coeficiente de desempenho nos estágios do internato

Abstract: Introduction: The relationships between the students' performance on medical residency exams and progress tests and medical clerkship rotations are not well established. Objective: The objective of this study was to measure the correlations between grades on progress tests and clerkship rotations assessments and the medical residency exam and determine which performance had the strongest correlation with the final medical residency exam. Methods: This was a retrospective and longitudinal study with correlation analyses of grades on progress tests from the 1st to 6th year of medical school, the clerkship rotations performance coefficient (5th and 6th years of school) and the final medical residency exam in a cohort of students enrolled in a federal public medical school using factor analysis. Students who performed the progress tests from the 1st to 6th year were included. Results: Of 123 students enrolled in the first year of medical school in 2009, 114 (92.7%) performed the progress tests during the six years and were included. The average grades on the progress tests from 1 to 10 were 2.67 (1st year), 3.01 (2nd year), 4.19 (3rd year), 4.01 (4th year), 5.19 (5th year), and 6.38 (6th year). The average grades in the clerkship rotations were 8.32 (5th year) and 8.26 (6th year). The average score on the theoretical medical residency exam was 7.53 and the final result of the medical residency exam was 8.05. Factor analysis detected three domains with greater correlation strength that accounted for 76.3% of the model variance. Component 1 was identified as the coefficient of academic performance (CAP) 5th, CAP 6th and final medical residency exam grades, whereas component 2 was constituted by the grades of the 5th and 6th years progress tests and the third component comprised the progress tests of the 2nd, 3rd and 4th years. Conclusions: Grades on the progress tests, the clerkship rotations assessments and the final medical residency exam were correlated. Moreover, the performance during the medical clerkship rotations showed the strongest correlations with medical residency exam grades.

OBJECTIVES@#This study aimed to compare the evaluation results of University of the Philippines - College of Medicine (UPCM) Learning Unit VI (LU VI) students in their Musculoskeletal (MSK) year-end module examination and final module grade to their results in the MSK 30 examination. It likewise sought to assess the adequacy of the institution’s current curriculum on the basis of the most clinically relevant MSK topics included in the MSK 30.@*METHODS@#The knowledge of the students in Musculoskeletal medicine was determined using the MSK 30 validated exam and this was compared to their results in the various evaluation tools of the present MSK curriculum. The results were subjected to statistical analysis using (1) the Pearson correlation coefficient and (2) item analysis. @*RESULTS@#Despite exhibiting above average performance in the MSK module, the performance of the 66 (N=187) LU VI students in the MSK 30 showed otherwise with a passing rate of only 48.48%. There was no statistically significant correlation between the MSK 30 and the year-end module examination (p value = 0.77, CI 90%, ME 8%), and the final module grade (p value = 0.92, CI 90%, ME 8%). It was noted that the students did poorly in the following topics: Environmental Injury, Head Injury, Infection, Pediatrics, Spine, and Sports Injuries.@*CONCLUSION@#Undergraduate medical students of the University of the Philippines - College of Medicine performed poorly in the MSK 30 despite a generally good performance in the prescribed MSK module. Whether this is indicative of inadequacies in the existing MSK curriculum or is due to the MSK 30 not being appropriate to the local setting will need to be determined.

Two thumbs up! A review of the “PULMOSERYE: Pulmonary patient miniseries… Dead or Alive: The saga of Mang Jose”- a clerkship learning activity during the pandemic

@#The World Health Organization declared Covid 19 a pandemic in March 2020, disrupting medical education and creating a significant void in the hospital rotation of the clinical clerks. Alternative methods of teaching and learning had to be instituted, and since face-to-face encounters were still not allowed, all these activities had to be online. While the various activities were able to challenge critical analysis and thinking, the Section on Pulmonary Medicine felt that the clerks would benefit most from activities that would most closely simulate an actual patient encounter. And so, the PulmoSerye was born: a miniseries that followed the patient from initial consultation in the emergency room resulting in admission, events that happened in the ward, formulation of the Master Problem List, progress notes, giving discharge orders, writing the discharge summary, and finally a follow up via Telemedicine. This is what the clerks would have experienced if they had been in hospital. Activities such as the Pulmoserye should be highly considered as a viable option should clerkship hospital rotations once again be put on hold.

The virtual cardiology rotation: Situated cognition and the signature pedagogy in medicine

Background@#Corona Virus 2019 (COVID-19) challenged the delivery of medical education and training, especially to the 4th year medical students. Medicine's signature pedagogy, the ward rounds in the hospital, was put on hold in compliance with safety precautions during this pandemic and the Commission on Higher Education’s (CHED) suspension of face-to-face classes in all levels. How the University of Santo Tomas Faculty of Medicine & Surgery (UST FMS) Cardiology Rotation was delivered despite these restrictions is described. Using Google Classroom, Blackboard Collaborate, and Zoom, a 7-day online Cardiology Clerkship rotation was delivered to UST FMS 4th year students (clerks) using the synchronous and asynchronous mode of delivery. It consisted of the following: 1) Cardiovascular (CV) Ward Rotation with 3 cases using Google Classroom's adaptive release to create a vicarious experience of taking care of a patient and doing all the tasks that a clerk is supposed to do; 2) Virtual Ward Rounds by a consultant; 3) Outpatient Department (OPD) / Ambulatory Care Services (ACS) case discussions with a consultant and a 4) Heart Station Rotation for training in electrocardiogram (ECG) interpretation. @*Conclusion@#The advances in technology and software provided just-in-time resources that made possible the creative delivery of Medicine's signature pedagogy.

Perceptions and attitudes of 4th year medical students in clinical clerkship in the era of the Coronavirus disease 2019

BACKGROUND@#In the advent of coronavirus disease 2019 global crisis, hands-on patient care and inhospital training of fourth year medical students were suspended across the globe and shifted to remote online education. The aim of this study is to assess the perception and attitude of the 4th year medical students about clinical clerkship training during the COVID-19 pandemic.@*METHODS@#An online survey was sent to fourth-year medical students in three medical schools in lloilo City, from July 2021 to October 2021. The survey questionnaire is a combined dichotomous, multiplechoice, and Likert response scale questions.@*RESULTS@#Of the hundred sixty-eight students who completed the online survey, sixty-six percent did not experience hospital rotation. On average, students were very interested in COVID-19 (8.83) and willing to join in patient care if requested by a hospital or university to help during COVID-19 pandemic (8.65), but felt they were not ready (70%) due to a lack of the ability for clinical practice (90%). Most (82%) of the students expressed they wanted to maintain hands-on clinical practice education despite the pandemic. Overall, students who have experienced hospital rotation have a higher level of understanding of how much their life, behavior (9.30), and role as a medical student (9 .74) were affected by the pandemic as compared to the rest of the students.@*CONCLUSION@#This present pandemic has affected the medical students as a whole in areas of their role as students, behavior, and life. Their lack of confidence despite willingness to help correlated to their inadequate clinical experience. Specific policy adjustments concerning the curriculum of clinical clerkship during this time of pandemic should be revisited to tailor fit the students" needs for safe education to help them prepare to become a competent medical practitioner.

Application of CBL teaching based on self-made dynamic cardiovascular three-dimensional model in clinical clerkship of valvular heart disease / 中华医学教育探索杂志

Objective:To explore the effect of self-made dynamic cardiovascular three-dimensional model combined with CBL (case-based learning) teaching method in the clerkship of valvular heart disease for medical students.Methods:Sixty five-year clinical medical undergraduates from Nanjing Medical University (Batch 2016) were randomly divided into experimental group and control group. The experimental group received dynamic cardiovascular 3D model combined with CBL teaching method, while the control group received traditional model combined with CBL teaching method. After the course, the teaching effect was evaluated by examination and questionnaire. SPSS 19.0 was used for independent sample t test and chi-square test. Results:Compared with the control group, the students in experimental group had higher scores of basic theoretical knowledge [(43.10±3.51) vs. (40.87±3.19)] and clinical thinking ability [(42.20±3.15) vs. (40.20±3.81)], with significant differences ( P<0.05). Furthermore, they showed higher evaluation and satisfaction to learning initiative and enthusiasm, mastery of theoretical knowledge, clinical thinking ability, classroom learning interest, classroom activity and clarity of knowledge teaching, with significant differences ( P<0.05). Conclusion:In the teaching of valvular heart disease clerkship, the application of self-made dynamic cardiovascular three-dimensional model combined with CBL teaching method, can cultivate students' clinical diagnostic thinking ability and improve teaching quality.
