Residents and practicing physicians displaying signs of stress is common. It unclear whether during residency persists into professional practice or associated with future burnout.We assessed the persistence after its correlation burnout in practice. We hypothesized that would linger be correlated burnout.A prospective cohort study was conducted over 10 years using survey instruments existing validity evidence. 3 academic (2003-2005) were surveyed to measure residency. Ten later, these...

ABSTRACT Two language intervention methods were compared on their effectiveness at improving syntactic structures as measured by gain scores the Developmental Sentence Scoring (DSS) procedure. Forty-one expressive delayed children assigned to either an Interactive approach ( n = 25) or a Programmed 16), following series of 13 pre-training diagnostic tests. An analysis group mean DSS did not indicate significant difference between two teaching methods. However, when individual differences...

PurposeAs graduate medical education (GME) moves into the Next Accreditation System (NAS), programs must take a critical look at their current models of evaluation and assess how well they align with reporting outcomes. Our objective was to impact on house staff scores when transitioning from Dreyfus-based model Milestone-based evaluation. Milestones are key component NAS.MethodWe analyzed all end rotation evaluations completed by faculty for academic years 2010–2011 (pre-Dreyfus model)...

Abstract Context Patient handovers remain a significant patient safety challenge. Cognitive load theory (CLT) can be used to identify the cognitive mechanisms for handover errors. The ability measure types during could drive development of more effective curricula and protocols. No such currently exists. Methods authors developed Load Inventory Handoffs (CLIH) using multi‐step process, including expert interviews enhance content validity talk‐alouds optimise response process validity. final...

The COVID-19 pandemic has generated significant psychological distress among health care workers worldwide. New York State, particularly City and surrounding counties, were especially affected, experienced over 430,000 cases 25,000 deaths by mid-August 2020. We hypothesized that physicians trainees (residents/fellows) who redeployed outside of their specialty to treat inpatients would have higher burnout.We conducted a cross-sectional survey assess burnout attending trainee provided patient...

Third-year medical students traditionally receive their didactic or small group teaching sessions from clinical faculty during clerkship rotations. Near-peer is increasingly recognized as an acceptable method for teaching, however most near-peer takes place the pre-clinical curriculum. We sought to determine if fourth year were noninferior in facilitating discussions rotations.Seventy-five third-year participated a session focused on rheumatologic diseases internal medicine rotation....

ABSTRACT Background The Medical Student Performance Evaluation (MSPE) provides important information to residency programs. Despite recent recommendations for standardization, it is not clear how much variation exists in MSPE content among schools. Objectives We describe the current section of US allopathic medical schools, with a particular focus on variations presentation student performance. Methods A representative was obtained from 95.3% (143 150) schools through applications Zucker...

Summary We used the cognitive load inventory for handoffs (CLIH) to identify predictors of types during patient in order opportunities improve instruction. In 2019, out a total 1,807 residents and fellows within 24‐hospital health system, 693 (38.4%) completed CLIH after handoff. Multivariable regression yielded each type. Intrinsic associated with features learner (fatigue positively associated) task (higher complexity clinical setting, number patients, handoff length associated)....
