Ethical Concerns When Minors Act As Standardized Patients., Erwin Jiayuan Khoo, Robert Schremmer, Douglas S. Diekema, John Lantos

Manuscripts, Articles, Book Chapters and Other Papers

When minors are asked to assist medical educators by acting as standardized patients (SPs), there is a potential for the minors to be exploited. Minors deserve protection from exploitation. Such protection has been written into regulations governing medical research and into child labor laws. But there are no similar guidelines for minors' work in medical education. This article addresses the question of whether there should be rules. Should minors be required to give their informed consent or assent? Are there certain practices that could cause harm for the children who become SPs? We present a controversial case and ask a …

Passport To The Picu: A Quality Improvement Project For Resident Critical Care Education, Laura Miller-Smith, Tara Benton, Jennifer Flint, Jenna Miller, Kelly S. Tieves

Posters

The Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) has significant variability in patient numbers, acuity and disease processes represented throughout the year. This variability leads to differences in educational exposure for our residents. Prior attempts at standardizing education through a scheduled didactic program were limited by the time constraints of this high intensity and unpredictable environment. In 2015, the pediatric critical care rotation evaluation had the lowest scores for provision of didactic education. On a Likert scale of 1-5 (with 5 being excellent), the didactic scores were 3.41 (Jan - June 2015) and 3.79 (July - Dec. 2015.), lower than other rotations …
