Zusammenfassung: | INTRODUCTION
Toward a vision of competency-based medical education (CBME) spanning the undergraduate to graduate medical education (GME) continuum, University of Minnesota Medical School (UMMS) developed the Subinternship in Critical Care (SICC) offered across specialties and sites. Explicit course objectives and assessments focus on internship preparedness, emphasizing direct observation of handovers (Core Entrustable Professional Activity, “EPA,” 8) and cross-cover duties (EPA 10).
METHODS
To evaluate students’ perceptions of the SICC's and other clerkships’ effectiveness toward internship preparedness, all 2016 and 2017 UMMS graduates in GME training (n = 440) were surveyed regarding skill development and assessment among Core EPAs 1, 4, 6, 8, 9, 10. Analysis included descriptive statistics plus chi-squared and Kappa agreement tests.
RESULTS
Respondents (n = 147, response rate 33%) rated the SICC as a rotation during which they gained most competence among EPAs both more (#4, 57% rated important; #8, 75%; #10, 70%) and less explicit (#6, 53%; #9, 69%) per rotation objectives. Assessments of EPA 8 (80% rated important) and 10 (76%) were frequently perceived as important toward residency preparedness. Agreement between importance of EPA development and assessment was moderate (Kappa = 0.40-0.59, all surveyed EPAs).
CONCLUSIONS
Graduates’ perceptions support the SICC's educational utility and assessments. Based on this and other insight from the SICC, the authors propose implications toward collectively envisioning the continuum of physician competency. |
