First-Year Students' Perspectives On Reasons For And Prevention Of Their Own Alcohol Overdose, Janet Reis
First-Year Students' Perspectives On Reasons For And Prevention Of Their Own Alcohol Overdose, Janet Reis
Janet Reis
Two hundred twenty-six first-year students enrolled at a large, public Midwest university and deemed to require an emergency transport for a potential alcohol overdose completed a brief questionnaire on the student's perceptions of why the event occurred, what might have happened to prevent the overdose situation, and personal assessment of experience with alcohol. The explanations for the event revolve around personal decision making (made decision to drink too much, absence of drinking control behaviors) as opposed to peer influence. Similarly, factors selected as preventing an alcohol overdose focused on knowing one's own tolerance, plus having a buddy system to slow …

Evaluation Of A Health Education Program About Traumatic Brain Injury, Jane Mertz Garcia, Debra M. Sellers, Amy E. Hilgendorf, Debra L. Burnett
Debra M. Sellers
Objective: Our aim was to evaluate a health education programme (TBIoptions: Promoting Knowledge) designed to increase public awareness and understanding about traumatic brain injury (TBI) through in-person (classroom) and computer-based (electronic) learning environments. Design: We used a pre-post survey design with randomization of participants to classroom (N = 22) or electronic (N = 22) delivery of the programme, in classroom and computer laboratory settings on the campus of Kansas State University, Manhattan, KS. Method: Forty-four participants rated areas of knowledge about TBI prior to and after the programme experience. They also rated health programme quality and instructional strategies (e.g. video …

Review Of Anatomy Education In Australian And New Zealand Medical Schools, Steven J. Craig, Noel Tait, David Boers, Darryl J. Mcandrew
Darryl J McAndrew
Anatomy instruction at Australian and New Zealand medical schools has been the subject of considerable debate recently. Many commentators have lamented the gradual devaluation of anatomy as core knowledge in medical courses. To date, much of this debate has been speculative or anecdotal and lacking reliable supporting data. To provide a basis for better understanding and more informed discussion, this study analyses how anatomy is currently taught and assessed in Australian and New Zealand medical schools. A mailed questionnaire survey was sent to each of the 19 Australian and 2 New Zealand medical schools, examining the time allocation, content, delivery …

Changes to medical education in Australia include a proliferation of medical schools, shorter courses, shifts toward problem-based learning, and large-scale medical knowledge expansion. Students also spend less time on university campuses and more time at clinical teaching sites which are often non-specialised, regional and remote from the parent university. These changes leave little room for teaching anatomy as a pure discipline.

Background: The majority of society's deaths occur in a health care environment. Regardless of whether a death occurs in acute care, hospice, residential aged care or community settings, nurses are the health professionals that will spend the largest proportion of time with the patient who has a terminal condition and their families. As few nurses have specialist palliative care qualifications it is essential that nursing education prepares graduates to achieve the core capabilities required for the delivery of best evidenced based palliative care. This reality makes the integration of palliative care content into the undergraduate nursing curricula an important priority. …

On Being An International Medical Educator, Michelle Mclean, Stella Major, Judy Mckimm
Michelle McLean
Hayden's (2006) article on the internationalisation of medical education set out a compelling vision of transnational medical education. A typical scenario would therefore be an international teacher with a class of international students, an international curriculum and instiutional collaboration across national boundaries. In today's shrinking global world of travel and communication, such a scenario is probably not as uncommon as one might imagine.

How We "Breathed Life" Into Problem-Based Learning Cases Using A Mobile Application, Michelle Mclean, Victoria Brazil, Patricia Johnson

Background: Problem-based learning (PBL) has been widely adopted in medical education. Learners become bored with paper based cases as they progress through their studies. Aim: To breathe life (i.e. develop virtual patients) into paper-based PBL cases. Methods: The ‘‘patients’’ in paper-based PBL cases in one Year 2 were transformed into virtual patients by simulated patients roleplaying and the videos and associated patient data uploaded to Bond’s Virtual Hospital, a mobile Application. In unsupervised ‘‘clinical teams’’, second-year students undertook ‘‘ward rounds’’ twice a week, prompted by a virtual consultant and registered nurse. Immediately following the ‘‘ward rounds’’, they met with a …

Robin S. Schroeder MD
PURPOSE: Affecting one in three adults, hypertension is one of the most prevalent disorders in the United States. The purpose of this analysis was to evaluate, using national care guidelines and quality standards, the quality of care provided at the Student Family Health Care Center (SFHCC) of the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey (Newark).
METHOD: The authors performed a chart review of all patients seen from June 2008 to June 2009, collecting the following data: age, gender, ethnicity, body mass index, most recent blood pressure measurement, comorbid conditions, number of visits, free medications dispensed, and smoking status. …
Relationships Between Medical Student Burnout, Empathy, And Professionalism Climate, Chantal Brazeau, Robin Schroeder, Sue Rovi, Linda Boyd
Relationships Between Medical Student Burnout, Empathy, And Professionalism Climate, Chantal Brazeau, Robin Schroeder, Sue Rovi, Linda Boyd
Robin S. Schroeder MD
BACKGROUND: Medical student burnout is prevalent, and there has been much discussion about burnout and professionalism in medical education and the clinical learning environment. Yet, few studies have attempted to explore relationships between those issues using validated instruments. METHOD: Medical students were surveyed at the beginning of their fourth year using the Maslach Burnout Inventory, the Jefferson Scale of Physician Empathy-Student Version, and the Professionalism Climate Instrument. The data were analyzed using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences, and Spearman correlation analysis was performed. RESULTS: Scores indicative of higher medical student burnout were associated with lower medical student empathy scores …
