ABSTRACT

RESUMEN Los cambios en la educación desafían a los profesores sobre cómo enseñar de la mejor manera y mejorar el desempeño de sus estudiantes. En el caso de la cirugía es necesario adquirir habilidades manuales que reflejen el pensamiento crítico y la capacidad de tomar decisiones en situaciones complejas, de manera rápida y eficaz. Así, la inteligencia artificial (IA) es una nueva herramienta que puede mejorar el desempeño de los estudiantes de grado y posgrado, así como repercutir en mejores desenlaces clínicos. El papel que debe desempeñar la enseñanza tradicional y el futuro de la enseñanza quirúrgica son cuestiones para resolver.


ABSTRACT Educational changes present a challenge for teachers in terms of how to effectively teach and enhance student performance. Surgery demands manual dexterity that reflects critical thinking and the ability to make efficient decisions quickly in complex situations. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a tool that can enhance the performance of both undergraduate and graduate students and improve clinical outcomes. The role of traditional teaching and the future of surgical education need to be addressed.

ABSTRACT

Purpose: The aim of this research was to evaluate the technique of using inhaled drugs in patients with a confirmed history of COPD and describe errors in inhaler technique. Patients and Methods: Descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted in patients with a history of COPD using inhalation therapy, attending pulmonology consultation between August 2020 and April 2021 in Armenia, Colombia. A non-probabilistic sample of 80 adult participants was calculated, and the inhalation technique was evaluated (depending on the device used) using a scale validated for Colombia. Descriptive analysis of the qualitative variables was performed using frequencies and percentages. The Chi-Square test and Fisher's exact test (in corresponding cases) were used to look for association relationships between categorical variables. Results: A total of 80 participants were evaluated, of which 66.3% (n = 53) were male, and 32.5% were older than 80 years. Clinically, 30.0% (n = 24) were classified as Modified Medical Research Council Dyspnea Scale (mMRC) grade 3, and 51.2% (n = 41) had at least one exacerbation per year. The main comorbidity was hypertension (40.3%). Pressurized metered-dose inhalers with spacer were the most used device at 22.7% (n = 39). Incorrect technique (at least one error in the steps of the inhalation technique used) was found in 48.7%. The most frequent error among all the techniques was the failure to perform pre-inspiratory exhalation. No significant differences were observed between the development of the technique and the characteristics of the participants. Conclusion: Nearly half of the patients who use inhalation devices make errors in the technique. Patient education and training of healthcare personnel represent a fundamental pillar in mitigating the incorrect use of these devices.
