ABSTRACT
We analyzed the student self-assessment on education in cardiology using a questionnaire.<BR>Subjects:
Ninety-six 5th-year students at Saga Medical School who have completed the lectures and bedside teaching were evaluated.<BR>Methods:
A questionnaire survey of 14 topics in cardiology was performed at the finish of 3 weeks of bedside teachings. Self-assessment was categorized into 4 grades; 1) completely understood (3 points), 2) almost completely understood (2 points), 3) could be understood (1 point), and 4) could not be understood (0 point). Self-assessment scores were calculated for each topic in cardiology.<BR>Results:
Questionnaires were returned by 88 students (91.7%). Self-assessment scores were high for myocardial infarction, angina pectoris, and electrocardiogram reading. Scores were low for primary care, vascular diseases, and pericardial disease. Self-assessment scores did not significantly correlate with the length of lectures but did correlate with the number of admitted patients (r= 0.93) and scores on achievement tests (r= 0.43) in each topic.<BR>Conclusions:
Because students observed many patients with myocardial infarction and angina pectoris during bedside teaching, the self-assessment scores were high. Bedside teaching is important for medical students to understand topics in cardiology.
