RESUMO

PROBLEM: Medical school graduates enter a complex health care delivery system involving interprofessional teamwork and multifaceted value-based patient care decisions. However, current curricula on health systems science (HSS) are piecemeal, lecture based, and confined to preclinical training. APPROACH: The VISTA program is a longitudinal, immersive learning curriculum integrated into the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine curriculum between 2016 and 2018. Key components include a unit-based nursing interprofessional team experience, a discharge objective structured clinical examination (OSCE), a patient safety simulation, and the implementation of a Choosing Wisely SmartPhrase. Graduates before (2016-2017) and after (2018-2020) VISTA implementation completed a Likert-style survey assessing attitudes, knowledge, and behaviors on HSS topics. A free response question solicited improvement areas. The Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) Graduation Questionnaire (GQ) was also examined. OUTCOMES: The overall VISTA survey response rate was 59%, with 126 fourth-year medical student respondents before VISTA and 120 after VISTA. Compared with pre-VISTA graduates, post-VISTA graduates reported a significantly higher rate of competence on the HSS questions, with the greatest increases seen in effective communication at discharge (n = 73/126 [57.9%] to 116/120 [96.7%], P < .001), knowledge on safety event reporting (n = 53/126 [42.1%] to 96/120 [79.8%], P < .001), and considering costs in making health care decisions (n = 76/126 [60.3%] to 117/120 [97.5%], P < .001). All were directly addressed through experiential learning interventions, and 2 were intended practice behaviors. VISTA graduate responses to free-text questions demonstrated a more nuanced understanding of HSS compared with pre-VISTA responses. The AAMC GQ data showed increased agreement with an item that mapped to HSS understanding. NEXT STEPS: The VISTA program provides a model for institutions to enhance HSS education between curricular overhauls. Next steps include implementing value-added roles and additional immersive learning exercises.

RESUMO

Introduction: Interprofessional collaboration improves patient outcomes. Many institutions lack access to learners from other health care professions, limiting the feasibility of many published interprofessional curricula. We created a video-based workshop to fill the need for an introductory interactive interprofessional activity for third-year medical students (MS 3) in their internal medicine clerkship, in which other health care students and standardized patients were not readily accessible. Methods: This session introduced medical students to the interprofessional model of care through a video workshop. Learners engaged in reflective observation as a video presented a physician interviewing a patient. The training and roles of interprofessional providers were discussed with the aid of video demonstrations. Learners completed postworkshop and postmedicine clerkship surveys with responses indicated using a Likert scale (1 = strongly disagree, 5 = strongly agree). Results: Sixty-seven MS 3s participated in this workshop; postworkshop survey response rate was 82%. Of students who responded to the surveys, 87% agreed that the video increased their understanding of when it would be beneficial to consult interprofessional team members. Students' confidence in interacting with interprofessional team members improved from a mean of 3.0 before the workshop to 3.7 after the workshop. At the end of the medicine clerkship, 71% indicated that the video improved their ability to work with interprofessional team members at least moderately. Discussion: This video-based workshop improved students' self-rated understanding of interprofessional team members' roles and increased their confidence interacting with other members of the interprofessional health care team.

RESUMO

Introduction: Many women of reproductive age with complex medical conditions receive primary care through an internal medicine (IM) physician rather than an obstetrician/gynecologist. Long-acting reversible contraception methods are the most effective form of contraception; however, IM residents are not routinely trained in them. Infrequent training in, inadequate knowledge of, and discomfort with contraception counseling limit the counseling performed by IM residents. Shared decision-making (SDM) is a method of patient-centered communication that can improve communication about patient preferences and increase patient satisfaction with and adherence to contraception. We developed a curriculum to teach contraception counseling under the framework of SDM for IM residents. Methods: The curriculum focused on contraception counseling through the lens of SDM designed for IM and medicine/pediatrics residents (PGY 2-PGY 4). We adapted an existing seven-step model of SDM to fit elements of contraception counseling. The curriculum consisted of a didactic teaching session with integration of an instructional video and structured interactive discussion. The session lasted 60 minutes. Results: Fifty-eight residents participated in the curriculum. On pre- and postcurriculum surveys, residents reported improvement in contraception knowledge (overall mean precurriculum = 57%, postcurriculum = 70%, p < .001) and comfort with contraception counseling (overall mean precurriculum = 3.2, postcurriculum = 3.6, p < .01). Residents expressed strong support for SDM before and after the curriculum. Discussion: Based on the survey results, the curriculum successfully addressed gaps in residents' comfort with contraception counseling and knowledge of contraception side effects and efficacy.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Unprofessional behaviors undermine the hospital learning environment and the quality of patient care. OBJECTIVE: To assess the impact of an interactive workshop on the perceptions of and self-reported participation in unprofessional behaviors. METHODS: We conducted a pre-post survey study at 3 internal medicine residency programs. For the workshop we identified unprofessional behaviors related to on-call etiquette: "blocking" an admission, disparaging a colleague, and misrepresenting a test as urgent. Formal debriefing tools were utilized to guide the discussion. We fielded an internally developed 20-item survey on perception and participation in unprofessional behaviors prior to the workshop. An online "booster" quiz was delivered at 4 months postworkshop, and the 20-item survey was repeated at 9 months postworkshop. Results were compared to a previously published control from the same institutions, which showed that perceptions of unprofessional behavior did not change and participation in the behaviors worsened over the internship. RESULTS: Of 237 eligible residents, 181 (76%) completed both pre- and postsurvey. Residents perceived blocking an admission and the misrepresentation of a test as urgent to be more unprofessional at a 9-month follow-up (2.0 versus 1.74 and 2.63 versus 2.28, respectively; P < .05), with no change in perception for disparaging a colleague. Participation in unprofessional behaviors did not decrease after the workshop, with the exception of misrepresenting a test as urgent (61% versus 50%, P = .019). CONCLUSIONS: The results of this multi-site study indicate that an interactive workshop can change perception and may lower participation in some unprofessional behaviors.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Patient-centered discharge care is critical to teach in clerkships: Studies have shown that patient-centered discharge care may reduce rehospitalization rates as well as ensure patient understanding after discharge. While these skills are necessary to be a successful intern, this is infrequently taught formally in clerkships. This session introduces medical students to challenges patients and providers face during care transitions, specifically, the transition after discharge from an inpatient hospital stay. METHODS: This workshop experience fosters the use of best communication-skills practices and team collaboration in discharge education and planning through reflective observation and role-play. Learners first identify common challenges faced when providing effective care transitions and then identify solutions to encourage patient-centered discharge care practices. Students also have the opportunity to be directly observed providing discharge care and to receive feedback using an observation tool. The materials associated with this publication include guidelines for workshop facilitators, blank video worksheet, completed video worksheet, teaching video, role-play exercise instructions and answer sheet for facilitators, direct observation tool, and workshop evaluation form. RESULTS: The majority of students agreed the workshop would be helpful in practicing effective discharge education (69/75, 92%) and in providing patient-centered care during care transitions (72/75, 96%). Observers and students using the discharge education card reported an average score of 4.3 out of 5 that the observation was a helpful educational experience, and 84% of the completed discharge education tools included comments on areas of improvement or an action plan. DISCUSSION: The tool is brief and user friendly, allowing for this exercise to be completed without difficulty during busy ward days. It also can be completed by residents or attendings depending on time constraints.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The most recent iteration of the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education duty-hour regulations includes language mandating handoff education for trainees and assessments of handoff quality by residency training programs. However, there is a lack of validated tools for the assessment of handoff quality and for use in trainee education. METHODS: Faculty at 2 sites (University of Chicago and Yale University) were recruited to participate in a workshop on handoff education. Video-based scenarios were developed to represent varying levels of performance in the domains of communication, professionalism, and setting. Videos were shown in a random order, and faculty were instructed to use the Handoff Mini-Clinical Examination Exercise (CEX), a paper-based instrument with qualitative anchors defining each level of performance, to rate the handoffs. RESULTS: Forty-seven faculty members (14 at site 1; 33 at site 2) participated in the validation workshops, providing a total of 172 observations (of a possible 191 [96%]). Reliability testing revealed a Cronbach α of 0.81 and Kendall coefficient of concordance of 0.59 (>0.6 = high reliability). Faculty were able to reliably distinguish the different levels of performance in each domain in a statistically significant fashion (ie, unsatisfactory professionalism mean 2.42 vs satisfactory professionalism 4.81 vs superior professionalism 6.01, P < 0.001 trend test). Two-way analysis of variance revealed no evidence of rater bias. CONCLUSIONS: Using standardized video-based scenarios highlighting differing levels of performance, we were able to demonstrate evidence that the Handoff Mini-CEX can draw reliable and valid conclusions regarding handoff performance. Future work to validate the tool in clinical settings is warranted.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Unprofessional behavior can compromise care and detract from the hospital learning environment. Discrepancy between professional behaviors formally taught and what is witnessed has become increasingly evident. METHODS: With funding from the American Board of Internal Medicine Foundation, a workshop was developed to address unprofessional behaviors related to inpatient care previously identified in a multi-institution survey. The aims were to utilize video-based education to illustrate unprofessional behaviors, how faculty play a role in promoting such behaviors, and facilitate reflection regarding motivation for and prevention of these behaviors. Hospitalists and housestaff at 3 Chicago-area academic hospitals and 1 community teaching affiliate participated. Videos were debriefed, identifying barriers to professional behavior and improvement strategies. A postworkshop survey assessed beliefs on behaviors and intent to change practice. RESULTS: Forty-four (53%) faculty and 244 (68%) residents (postgraduate year 1 and greater) participated. The workshop was well received, with 89% reporting it "useful and effective." Two-thirds expressed intent to change behavior. Most (86%) believed videos were realistic and effective. Those who perceived videos as "very realistic" were more likely to report intent to change behavior (93% vs 53%, P = 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: Video-based education is a feasible way to promote reflection and address unprofessional behaviors among providers and may positively impact the learning environment.
