背景:在西方临床培训中,摘要陈述(SS)的制定是衔接的核心练习,评估,和临床推理(CR)的改进。在日本临床培训中,制定CR的结构化指导,包括党卫军实践的机会,并不常见,案例总结技能的现状尚不清楚。我们使用虚拟患者(VP)来探索日本初级居民的SS风格以及VP在提高SS质量方面的有效性。
方法:4个住院医师项目(n=54)的所有一年级初级住院医师都被分配了5个VP模块的随机序列,每隔6天推出。在每个模块中,参与者免费发短信给案例摘要,然后查看模型摘要。使用主题分析来识别SS风格,并相应地对每个SS进行分类。SS样式的频率,和SSCR质量由1)内部开发的关键特征规则和2)语义资格证明决定,在各个模块之间进行了比较。
结果:确定了四种SS类型:与鉴别诊断相匹配的编号特征,具有支持性评论的鉴别诊断,功能列表,和叙事总结。从模块#1到#5,叙事摘要SS风格显著增加(p=0.016),观察到SSCR质量评分(p=0.021)和语义驱动SS的百分比(p=0.003)。
结论:我们对日本初级居民的研究确定了不同的临床病例总结陈述风格,在一系列VP案例中,观察到叙述性总结风格的采用和总结陈述的CR质量的提高。
BACKGROUND: In Western clinical training, formulation of a summary statement (SS) is a core exercise for articulation, evaluation, and improvement of clinical reasoning (CR). In Japanese clinical training, structured guidance in developing CR, including opportunity for SS practice, is uncommon, and the present status of
case summarization skills is unclear. We used Virtual Patients (VPs) to explore Japanese junior residents\' SS styles and the effectiveness of VPs on improving SS quality.
METHODS: All first-year junior resident physicians at 4 residency programs (n = 54) were assigned randomized sequences of 5 VP modules, rolled out at 6 day intervals. During each module, participants free-texted a
case summary and then reviewed a model summary. Thematic analysis was used to identify SS styles and each SS was categorized accordingly. Frequency of SS styles, and SS CR quality determined by 1) an internally developed Key Feature rubric and 2) demonstration of semantic qualification, were compared across modules.
RESULTS: Four SS styles were identified: numbered features matched to differential diagnoses, differential diagnoses with supportive comments, feature listing, and narrative summarization. From module #1 to #5, significant increases in the narrative summarization SS style (p = 0.016), SS CR quality score (p = 0.021) and percentage of semantically driven SS (p = 0.003) were observed.
CONCLUSIONS: Our study of Japanese junior residents identified distinct clinical
case summary statement styles, and observed adoption of the narrative summarization style and improvement in the CR quality of summary statements during a series of VP cases.
