Perceptions Of Students

Background: Mini-CEX was developed to assess the clinical skills of students through direct observation and constructive feedback on student achievement. To test Mini-CEX well as assessment methods, it is necessary to evaluate the implementation of Mini-CEX as Mini-CEX assessment methods and benefits of the learning process, as well as the professional development of students as future doctors, in the form of assessment of students’ perceptions of the Mini- CEX implementation. The objective of this study are to validate an instrumen for measuring the level of student perceptions in the implementation of Mini-CEX in Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Gadjah Mada’s clerkship program, to know the student’s opinions about the implementation of Mini-CEX as a method of assessment in clerkship program and benefits to student learning and professional development, to know the relationship students’ Mini-CEX point to student’s perception in the implementation of Mini-CEX in clerkship program medical faculty of GMU, and to compare the perceptions of students in Mini-CEX implementation in clerkship program Medical Faculty of GMU based on the characteristics of the department.Method: Research was conducted with a cross sectional study design. The research utilized closed questionnaires, each contained 5 likert scales. The questionnaires were given to the students who conducted clerkship in Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Gadjah Mada during the period of September 2010–March 2011. A total number of 103 students who become subjects in this study, which are consisted of 72 students in Internal Medicine Department and 32 students in Neurology Department. The correlation between student perception and Mini-CEX score was analyzed by using spearman correlation test. Mann-Whitney test was used to analyze the differences student perception between both Departments.Results: Students who are conducting clerkship program in Internal Medicine Department and Neurology Department Faculty of Medicine Universitas Gadjah Mada agree that Mini-CEX can be as assessment and learning tools, and promote the development of student professionalism. Perceptions of students towards the implementation of Mini-CEX in clerkship are not associated with Mini-CEX score. There was no significant difference in students’ perceptions towards the implementation of Mini-CEX between Internal Medicine Department students and Neurology Department students.Conclusion: Students perceived the Mini-CEX to be a practical assessment tool with a positive impact on their learning and professionalism development during clerkship.

The Impact

Abstract BackgroundDuring the SARS-CoV-2/ COVID-19 pandemic, academic activities have been adjusted to include virtual components. The impact on student satisfaction with their medical education, especially in graduate programs, is unknown.MethodsThe Internal Medicine Department of the Pontificia Universidad Javeriana and the Hospital Universitario San Ignacio, in Bogotá (Colombia), converted multiple theoretical academic activities to virtual modality, and modified the practical activities using technological platforms that allow remote participation of residents or teachers. A survey was designed to evaluate the satisfaction of residents in relation to the theoretical and practical components, and the perception of change.Results48 residents responded the survey. > 72 % reported being partially or totally satisfied with the organization, content of the activities, interdisciplinary approach and opportunity to discuss topics for the theoretical activities. When evaluating the care activities, 21.9 % of the residents reported not being satisfied with the preparation that those activities give for clinical practice and professional life, and 31.3 % with the interdisciplinary approach, and time to discuss the cases. > 72.9 % were satisfied with the technological tools used. The level of perceived stress worsened for 62.5 %, and the opportunity to develop and practice skills worsened for 64.6 % of those surveyed.ConclusionsDespite the high satisfaction with the theoretical activities and the technological tools used, residents consider that the implementation of remote academic activities is associated with higher levels of stress and fewer opportunities to develop and practice clinical skills. New strategies are needed to improve practical components while maintaining social distancing.

Alt Activity

Background: Low blood ALT, Alanine aminotransferase activity and high FRAIL (Fatigue, Resistance, Ambulation, Illnesses and Loss of Weight) questionnaire scores were previously shown to be associated with frailty and increased risk of mortality. We aimed to correlate these tools with mortality and each other in patients hospitalized in an internal medicine department. Methods: This is a prospective study in a large tertiary hospital. We assessed the predictive value for clinical outcomes of both low ALT blood activity and the pre-frail and frail categories of the “FRAIL” questionnaire. Results: During a 15 months study, 179 consecutive patients were recruited, of whom 20 died. When all study participants were divided to three groups according to admission ALT levels (below 10 IU/L, 11 to 19 IU/L and above 20 IU/L) we found a statistically significant difference in the rate of mortality: 4 patients died within the group of ALT < 10 IU/L, 14 patients died in the group of 10 IU/L < ALT < 19 IU/L and in the group of patients with ALT > 20 IU/L, only 2 patients died (p = 0.042). A higher score on the FRAIL questionnaire was associated, with statistical significance, with higher risk of mortality (p = 0.029). There was a significant correlation (p = 0.038) between blood ALT activity and the pre-frailty and frailty classifications by the FRAIL Questionnaire. Conclusions: Both the FRAIL questionnaire and blood ALT activity are simple and practical tools for frailty assessment and risk stratification of patients hospitalized in the internal medicine department. Both tool’s results also correlate with each other.
