Roadmap for creating an accelerated three-year medical education program.
Authors: Leong SL, Cangiarella J, Fancher T, Dodson L, Grochowski C, Harnik V, Hustedde C, Jones B, Kelly C, Macerollo A, Reboli AC, Rosenfeld M, Rundell K, Thompson T, Whyte R, Pusic M Abstract Medical education is undergoing significant transformation. Many medical schools are moving away from the concept of seat time to competency-based education and introducing flexibility in the curriculum that allows individualization. In response to rising student debt and the anticipated physician shortage, 35% of US medical schools are considering the development of accelerated pathways. The roadmap described in this paper...

Teaching ultrasound in a curricular course according to certified EFSUMB standards during undergraduate medical education: a prospective study
Background: As a non-invasive and readily available diagnostic tool, ultrasound is one of the most important imaging techniques in medicine. Ultrasound is usually trained during residency preferable according to German Society of Ultrasound in Medicine (DEGUM) standards. Our curriculum calls for undergraduate training in ultrasound of medical students in their 4th year of undergraduate education. An explorative pilot study evaluated the acceptance of this teaching method, and compared it to other practical activities in medical education at Muenster University Methods: 240 medical students in their 4th year of undergraduat...

A qualitative assessment of internal medicine resident perceptions of graduate medical education following implementation of the 2011 ACGME duty hour standards
Conclusions: Residents noted a decline in teaching and are concerned with the decrease in "hands-on" clinical education that is inevitably impacted by fewer hours in the hospital, though some benefits were also reported. Future studies are needed to further elucidate the impact of decreased resident work hours on graduate medical education.

Outcomes of the Northern Ontario School of Medicine's distributed medical education programmes: protocol for a longitudinal comparative multicohort study
The objective is to understand how NOSM's selection criteria and medical education programmes set in rural and northern communities affect early career decision-making by physicians with respect to their choice of medical discipline, practice location, medical services and procedures, inclusion of medically underserved patient populations and practice structure. Methods and analysis This prospective comparative longitudinal study follows multiple cohorts from entry into medical education programmes at the undergraduate (UG) level (56–64 students per year at NOSM) or postgraduate (PG) level (40–60 residents per...

Bolstering the pipeline for primary care: a proposal from stakeholders in medical education.
Authors: Shi H, Lee KC Abstract The Association of American Medical Colleges reports an impending shortage of over 90,000 primary care physicians by the year 2025. An aging and increasingly insured population demands a larger provider workforce. Unfortunately, the supply of US-trained medical students entering primary care residencies is also dwindling, and without a redesign in this country's undergraduate and graduate medical education structure, there will be significant problems in the coming decades. As an institution producing fewer and fewer trainees in primary care for one of the poorest states in the Unite...

A progressive three-phase innovation to medical education in the United States.
Authors: Pfeifer CM Abstract The practice of medicine has changed greatly over the past 100 years, yet the structure of undergraduate medical education has evolved very little. Many schools have modified their curricula to incorporate problem-based learning and organ systems-based curricula, but few schools have adequately addressed rising tuition costs. Undergraduate medical education has become cost-prohibitive for students interested in primary care. In the meanwhile, the concept of a separate dedicated intern year is outdated and mired in waste despite remaining a requirement for several hospital-based and sur...

The Redistribution Of Graduate Medical Education Positions In 2005 Failed To Boost Primary Care Or Rural Training Graduate Medical Education
Graduate medical education (GME), the system to train graduates of medical schools in their chosen specialties, costs the government nearly $13 billion annually, yet there is little accountability in the system for addressing critical physician shortages in specific specialties and geographic areas. Medicare provides the bulk of GME funds, and the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act of 2003 redistributed nearly 3,000 residency positions among the nation’s hospitals, largely in an effort to train more residents in primary care and in rural areas. However, when we analyzed the outcomes o...

Quality indicators for blogs and podcasts used in medical education: modified Delphi consensus recommendations by an international cohort of health professions educators
Conclusions The quality indicators that were identified may serve as a foundation for further research on quality indicators of social media-based medical education resources and prompt discussion of their legitimacy as a form of educational scholarship.

Accelerating medical education: a survey of deans and program directors.
CONCLUSIONS: Over one-third of medical schools are considering the development of a 3YPP. While there may be benefits for a select group of students, concerns regarding maturity, depth of clinical exposure, and competency must be addressed for these programs to be well received. PMID: 27301381 [PubMed - in process]

Organizing graduate medical education programs into communities of practice.
Conclusion Reorganization within the DME of residency programs into CoOPs was overwhelmingly perceived as a positive change. Improved resources and accountability may position our DME to better handle the increasing complexity of graduate medical education. PMID: 28165968 [PubMed - in process]

Factors that predict for representation of women in physician graduate medical education.
Conclusions: Two exposure-related factors, percentage of female faculty members and being part of the third year core, were associated with underrepresentation of women as trainees. Future research could help examine whether these are causal associations. Medical schools and training specialties should investigate whether strategies to enhance mentorship and increase exposure to non-core specialties will increase the proportion of women in fields in which they are underrepresented.

Overcoming the barriers to implementation of competence-based medical education in post-graduate medical education: a narrative literature review
Med Educ Online. 2022 Dec;27(1):2112012. doi: 10.1080/10872981.2022.2112012.ABSTRACTTo ensure that residents are equipped with the necessary skills for practice, competence-based medical education (CBME) represents a transformative change in postgraduate medical education, which is being progressively introduced across Canadian specialty residency programs. Successful implementation will require adjustments to curriculum, assessment, and evaluation, with careful attention to the unique needs in the local context, including resident and faculty development. This narrative review of the literature aimed to determine the pote...
