非心脏外科专业规培住院医师心脏外科轮转教学的体会

心脏外科是外科中起步最晚,发展最快的学科,其病种复杂,专业性强。非心脏外科专业规范化培训住院医师在心脏外科轮转时间短,教学有一定的复杂性和特殊性。新疆维吾尔自治区人民医院心脏外科结合本专业的学科特点,对心脏外科教学进行了探索与改革,采用多样化的教学形式,将提升临床思维能力和临床实践能力作为培训重点,根据住院医师个体差异,分级强化临床操作技能。提高了非心脏外科专业住院医师学习积极性和主动性,培养住院医师规范化、标准化的诊疗行为,提高了住院医师规培质量。     

东莞市某镇居民家庭安全用药现状及影响因素分析

目的了解东莞市城镇居民家庭安全用药现状,探讨其影响因素,以更好地为社区居民家庭安全用药干预提供依据。方法选取东莞市某镇29个社区卫生服务中心(站)就诊的1 450名社区居民作为调查对象,采用自制的调查问卷进行调查,内容包括一般资料、安全用药认知情况、药物服用依从情况、药物储存与管理情况。结果该镇居民的家庭安全用药总得分(33.72±6.12)分,经回归分析,学历、婚姻、家中是否有6岁以下儿童、家中是否有慢性病患者是家庭安全用药总得分的影响因素(P<0.05或P<0.01)。结论社区居民对家庭用药安全知识整体偏低,受学历、婚姻、家庭中是否有儿童及慢性病患者的影响。管理者应根据影响因素采取有针对性的干预措施,提高安全用药的认知,规范药物服用的依从性,加强家庭药箱的储存与管理,以促进居民合理用药,保障用药安全。     

High-fidelity simulation is associated with good discriminability in emergency medicine residents’ in-training examinations

In-training examinations (ITEs), arranged during residency training, evaluate the residents’ performances periodically. There is limited literature focusing on the effectiveness of resident ITEs in the format of simulation-based examinations, as compared to traditional oral or written tests. Our primary objective is to investigate the effectiveness and discriminative ability of high-fidelity simulation compared with other measurement formats in emergency medicine (EM) residency training program.This is a retrospective cohort study. During the 5-year study period, 8 ITEs were administered to 68 EM residents, and 253 ITE measurements were collected. Different ITE scores were calculated and presented as mean and standard deviation. The ITEs were categorized into written, oral, or high-fidelity simulation test forms. Discrimination of ITE scores between different training years of residency was examined using a one-way analysis of variance test.The high-fidelity simulation scores correlated to the progression of EM training, and residents in their fourth training year (R4) had the highest scores consistently, followed by R3, R2, and then R1. The oral test scores had similar results but not as consistent as the high-fidelity simulation tests. The written test scores distribution failed to discriminate the residents’ seniority. The high-fidelity simulation test had the best discriminative ability and better correlation between different EM residency training years comparing to other forms.High-fidelity simulation tests had the good discriminative ability and were well correlated to the EM training year. We suggest high-fidelity simulation should be a part of ITE in training programs associated with critical or emergency patient cares.     

Resident recognition of open-angle glaucoma

To test an educational intervention’s effect on improving detection of glaucoma by direct ophthalmoscopy, 14 medicine residents examined five patients, two with ophthalmoscopic changes of glaucoma and three with normal fundi. The residents observed a standardized slide/narrative educational intervention reviewing glaucomatous ophthalmoscopic changes and then re-examined the same patients eight to 12 weeks later. The intervention’s odds of improving residents’ diagnostic impression were significant (OR=2.2; 95% CI=1.3–36), with significant improvement in sensitivity (p=0.02) and a trend toward improved specificity. These findings confirm that the diagnosis of glaucomatous ocular changes on eye examinations by medicine residents can be improved with a brief educational intervention. Presented in abstract form at the annual meeting of the Society of General Internal Medicine, Medical Education Section, April 29–May 1, 1992, Washington, DC, and at the Southern regional meeting of the Society of General Internal Medicine, Medical Education Section, January 29–31, 1992, New Orleans, Louisiana.     

Do medicine residents triage patients with gastrointestinal bleeding appropriately?

Background: Gastrointestinal specialists depend on internal medicine (IM) teams to accurately identify acute gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB). We evaluated whether IM residents’ assessment of GIB correlated with the impressions of GI specialists during consultations at an inner-city university teaching hospital. Methods: A questionnaire was distributed to house staff requesting GIB consultations and to the GI fellows performing the consults between August 2011 and April 2012. Residents and fellows were asked to assess GIB, specifically melena, using a stool color card and digital rectal examination (DRE) findings. Fellow DRE findings served as controls for stool color identification. Results: Eighty-seven GI consults were eligible for the study. Residents and fellows completed 81 and 86 questionnaires, respectively. A total of 76 questionnaires were included for analysis. A DRE was performed by medical staff before calling a consult in 65% of cases compared with fellows (97% of cases, P = 0.0001). Residents more frequently labeled stool as melena (42%) in patients as compared with fellows (12%, P = 0.0001). Residents inaccurately identified melenic stools in 22 patients (11 based on stool color and 11 based on DRE findings). Residents were more likely to label a consult as emergent than fellows (13.5% vs 4%, P < 0.05). Conclusion: Residents are less likely to perform DRE during an evaluation for GIB and to accurately identify melena based on stool color or DRE findings. There appears to be a need to educate residents on the appropriate terminology for stool color and the importance of DRE to accurately triage patients with acute GIBs.     

The Radiologist and Depression

Clinical depression affects physicians, including radiologists. Medical professionals, including radiologists, may be more comfortable treating a patient than being one, and psychiatric issues may be regarded as taboo for discussion, so the issue of clinical depression in the specialty and subspecialty has not received widespread attention. Specifically, a review of the national and international literature in PubMed, Scopus, and Google reveals few publications dedicated to the issue of clinical depression in radiology; although statistically, they must exist. The purpose of this report is to define the terms and describe the manifestations and scope of the issues related to clinical depression, with special attention given to risk factors unique to radiologists, such as working in low ambient light or near different fields of magnetic strength. By the end of the article, it is the authors’ hope that the reading radiologist will be aware of, and open to, the possibility of clinical depression in a colleague or within his or herself because clinical depression is common and it is important to get help.
