Special Considerations in the Care of the Physician-Patient: a Lesson for Medical Education.
Authors: Lam ST Abstract In the field of medicine, there is strong emphasis on the healing of others, but not as much on the healing of self. It is therefore not surprising that physicians may be ill-equipped to not only care for other physicians, but to be treated as patients. Multiple studies indicate that relatively few physicians have their own primary physicians and often rely on self-treatment, rather than obtaining comprehensive care from other physicians. Through the lens of a personal struggle with serious illness, the author develops a discussion about potential barriers physicians face in seeking care, t...

Medical Wikis Dedicated to Clinical Practice: A Systematic Review
Conclusions: The 25 medical wikis we studied present various limitations in their format, management, and collaborative features. Professional medical wikis may be improved by using clinical cases, developing more detailed transparency and editorial policies, and involving postgraduate and continuing medical education learners.

Medical civil-military interactions on United Nations missions: lessons from South Sudan
This paper outlines the United Nations’ integrated response to complex humanitarian emergencies and the different types of interactions that may occur between militaries and civilian organisations involved in them. It uses a recent UK deployment to South Sudan as an example, drawing on the experience to highlight areas of particular interest to healthcare workers. It identifies several domains that should usefully be developed for both civilians and military personnel in these environments—including sharing our expertise in major incident management, proof-of-concept testing for novel diagnostic and treatment s...

Cost in medical education: one hundred and twenty years ago
Abstract The first full paper that is dedicated to cost in medical education appears in the BMJ in 1893. This paper “The cost of a medical education” outlines the likely costs associated with undergraduate education at the end of the nineteenth century, and offers guidance to the student on how to make financial planning. Many lessons can be gleaned from the paper about the cost and other aspects of nineteenth century medical education. Cost is viewed almost exclusively from the domain of the male gender. Cost is viewed not just from the perspective of a young man but of a young gentleman. There is a strong im...

Towards socio‐material approaches in simulation‐based education: lessons from complexity theory
ConclusionsSocio‐material approaches such as complexity theory are spreading through research and practice in many aspects of professional education across disciplines. Here, we argue for the transformative potential of complexity theory in medical education using simulation as our focus. Complexity tools open questions about the socio‐material contradictions inherent in SBE, draw attention to important material dynamics of emergence, and suggest practical educative ways to expand and deepen student learning.

Lessons learned from a  student-driven initiative to design and implement an Organ and Tissue Donation course across Canadian medical schools
AbstractThe competencies required of the well-trained physician are constantly evolving, and medical education must adapt accordingly. In response, a  growing number of influential medical education licensing and accreditation bodies have proposed frameworks that outline society’s expectations of physician competencies. In Canada, undergraduate and graduate curricula have undergone major changes to meet the specifications of the CanMEDS framew ork, and similar efforts are underway internationally. Nonetheless, ensuring the values enshrined within such frameworks become integral to a physician’s identity remains chall...

Can the science of communication inform the art of the medical humanities?
CONCLUSION  The arts and humanities can provide important contextual media through which the lessons learned from the science of communication in medicine can be translated and promoted as forms of medical education.

Problem-based learning in resource-poor settings: lessons from a medical school in Ghana
Problem-based learning (PBL) is arguably one of the most important innovations in medical education in the last century. The evident benefits of PBL and the changing face of medicine and medical education have led many institutions including those in resource-poor settings to consider the adoption of PBL curricula. However, experts are uncertain about how successful PBL will be in such settings, as literature on the implementation of PBL in resource-poor settings appears to be inadequate. The University of Cape Coast is located in a resource-poor setting, however, its medical school has used PBL curriculum since 2007. In a...

The 5 T ’s: Applying Cognitive Science to Improve Prehospital Medical Education
Publication date: Available online 5 April 2017 Source:Air Medical Journal Author(s): Michael J. Lauria, Mackenzie R. Bronson, Patricia L. Lanter, Thomas W. Trimarco Although research on effective teaching methods exists, the application of this information in prehospital medical education is limited. Applying lessons from the realms of cognitive psychology and neuroscience, prehospital educators can enhance their ability to teach. One such concept is the theory of cognitive load. Understanding this theory can reduce the mental strain placed on learners and allow educators to best accomplish long-term learning success, de...

Use of a virtual world computer environment for international distance education: lessons from a pilot project using Second Life
Virtual worlds (VWs), in which participants navigate as avatars through three-dimensional, computer-generated, realistic-looking environments, are emerging as important new technologies for distance health education. However, there is relatively little documented experience using VWs for international healthcare training. The Geneva Foundation for Medical Education and Research (GFMER) conducted a VW training for healthcare professionals enrolled in a GFMER training course. This paper describes the development, delivery, and results of a pilot project undertaken to explore the potential of VWs as an environment for distanc...

Positive impact of integrating histology and physiology teaching at a medical school in China
This study assessed the results of the reform by comparing the attitudes and academic achievements of students in the reform curriculum (n = 41) and their traditional curriculum peers (n = 182). An attitude survey was conducted to obtain students' views of their respective histology and physiology instruction. Survey items covered lectures, laboratory teaching, case analyses and small-group case discussions, assessment of students, and overall quality of the courses and instruction. A knowledge test consisting of questions from three sources was given to measure students' mastery of topics that they had learned. Results sh...

Integrating Quality Improvement With Graduate Medical Education: Lessons Learned From the AIAMC National Initiatives
This article describes the National Initiatives (NIs) and the reflections of NI participants, including their reflections on the goals they set for integrating GME with QI, the barriers they encountered along the way, and their advice to others beginning the challenge. These reflections provide some insight into the pathways of promoting organizational change and offer practical insight and inspiring advice for others embarking on the journey.
