Quality instead of quantity improves medical education.
Abstract Currently, continuing medical evaluation takes place in Germany-but not nationally or regularly, and without national standards. Therefore, comparisons between different clinics and trainers can currently not be drawn. Survey modes, such as those that have existed in Switzerland for decades, could provide a constructive basis in the assessment of the current continuing medical education of urology residents and subsequently facilitate the discussion on improvements. This requires constructive cooperation of all involved, without attributing the responsibility only to the educators. Models of rewarding go...

Systematic Review of Current Ultrasound Use in Education and Simulation in the Field of Urology
AbstractPurpose of the ReviewWe investigate articles in the literature published in the last 5  years (2014–2019) regarding ultrasound education in the specialty of urology.Recent FindingsUltrasound has been touted as the modern day stethoscope. Medical educational governing bodies have encouraged the incorporation of ultrasound in medical school education.

Improving the diagnostic workup of hyponatremia in the setting of kidney disease: a continuing medical education (CME) initiative
We examined the frequency of appropriate testing in response to an episode of inpatient hyponatremia in a large urban hospital to better inform our educational intervention. We then evaluated the impact of a live CME activity with a focus on CKD- and ESRD-associated hyponatremia physiology, on diagnostic practices of audience hospitalist attendings.MethodsWe performed a retrospective database analysis of all patients admitted to Montefiore Medical Center in 2014 to examine the performance of hospital staff in response to hyponatremia across all CKD stages. We then did a comparative analysis of diagnostic workup orders for ...

Starting points for resilience promotion in medical education: What keeps future doctors healthy?
Abstract A trend towards reduced resilience to stress and impaired psychosocial well-being begins early on in medical education. Our own results confirm the early deterioration of the psychosocial health of medical students observed internationally. Students who simultaneously demonstrate high levels of perfectionism, an insufficient ability to distance themselves from work, as well as a lack of regular physical activity appear to form a special risk group. Therefore, it seems rational to implement interventions that counteract this development by enhancing individual resources and preventing harmful curriculum-...
