“…26 Standardized patient colleagues have been used to further IPE in pharmacy education in recent projects. 17,27,28 In each instance, the standardized colleagues portrayed different types of medical doctors with variation in level of training (from medical student to seasoned attending) and specialty. In our project, we did not collaborate with physicians or medical students, but instead included a broad range of the disciplines that would be found in a larger care team.…”

Objective. To design and implement a series of activities focused on developing interprofessional communication skills and to assess the impact of the activities on students' attitudes and achievement of educational goals. Design. Prior to the first pharmacy practice skills laboratory session, pharmacy students listened to a classroom lecture about team communication and viewed short videos describing the roles, responsibilities, and usual work environments of four types of health care professionals. In each of four subsequent laboratory sessions, students interacted with a different standardized health care professional role-played by a pharmacy faculty member who asked them a medication-related question. Students responded in verbal and written formats. Assessment. Student performance was assessed with a three-part rubric. The impact of the exercise was assessed by conducting pre-and post-intervention surveys and analyzing students' performance on relevant Center for the Advancement of Pharmacy Education (CAPE) outcomes. Survey results showed improvement in student attitudes related to team-delivered care. Students' performance on the problem solver and collaborator CAPE outcomes improved, while performance on the educator outcome worsened. Conclusions. The addition of an interprofessional communication activity with standardized health care professionals provided the opportunity for students to develop skills related to team communication. Students felt the activity was valuable and realistic; however, analysis of outcome achievement from the exercise revealed a need for more exposure to team communication skills.

“…Siempre parte de los datos clínicos obtenidos del paciente, los cuales precisan una sistemática para su adquisición y registro que permita un adecuado intercambio de información entre profesionales 2 . Estos registros sistematizados, como el que se introduce en nuestro estudio, también se consideran muy útiles para la educación médica [14][15][16] , ya que permiten a los estudiantes y residentes formarse y entrenarse para afrontar el proceso asistencial, una situación siempre ligada a unos altos índices de variabilidad y, por tanto, de difícil transmisión docente 17 , con buenos resultados publicados en diversos estudios 3,18 . Asimismo, el uso integrado de estos conceptos en la HCE ha permitido mejorar la calidad asistencial y la eficiencia, e incluso se propone como mecanismo para reducir los errores médicos ligándolos a estrategias en relación con la seguridad del paciente 19 y el gasto sanitario.…”

Antecedentes: Podrían existir carencias en el registro de datos relevantes del proceso asistencial de hospitalización quirúrgica. Objetivo: Completar un ciclo de mejora de la calidad del proceso asistencial quirúrgico en una planta de cirugía. Mediremos unos criterios de calidad estructurados, identificando las principales deficiencias, implementando medidas de mejora y reevaluando la calidad del proceso asistencial quirúrgico. Además, se valora la viabilidad de la implantación de un sistema nemotécnico de registro de actividad y de un método de evaluación nutricional. Método: Estudio comparativo (n = 60) antes-después del establecimiento de medidas de mejora basadas en el análisis del proceso asistencial quirúrgico. Los criterios evaluados fueron la información recibida por el paciente, el registro de la evolución clínica y el plan de cuidado establecido por el cirujano en la historia clínica, el registro de peso y talla, y la valoración nutricional. Se realizaron sesiones informativas e implementación electrónica de la nota SOAP (subjetive, objetive, assessment, plan) y de un test de valoración nutricional. Resultados: Hubo mejoría significativa en todos los criterios medidos (información, registro y evaluación nutricional). Conclusión: Algunas medidas sencillas permiten una mejoría importante en la información, la evaluación nutricional y el registro del proceso asistencial en una planta de cirugía.

“…Using SPs in communication skills and counseling in pharmacy still seems to be a newborn. However, studies have shown that SP is used for training and assessment purposes in recent year,[ 16 17 ] but seldom used for evaluating the quality control of their performance as a valid assessment method.…”

Objective:The objective of this study is to describe the process of training valid simulated patients (SPs) for assessing communication and counseling skills of pharmacy students’ performance.Methods:This is a cross-sectional and correlational study. Psychometric properties of checklist and SPs’ portrayals and their filling of the checklist regarding assessing pharmacy students were assessed. Five SPs who were working in the simulated patient's pool were volunteered to take part in the project, which one of the SPs failed. Three scenarios, along with corresponding checklists, were developed based on the usual medications of different diseases consisting of asthma, respiratory infections, and osteoporosis. The SPs’ role-play performance was video-recorded and rated independently by two experts according to an observational rating scale to assess validity. The role-play was repeated after 1 week with the same scenario and the same doctor, to assess test-retest reliability. The inter-rater agreement between SPs and experts was determined by calculating the intraclass correlation coefficient and kappa coefficient.Findings:The four eligible SPs were all women, with an average age of 37 years. The correlation between mean scores of raters and mean scores of SPs was 0.91 and 0.85, respectively. The Pearson's correlation between mean scores of raters with SPs was 0.75. The checklists’ reliability, Cronbach's alpha, was calculated to be 0.72. The measured weighted Cohen's kappa for the ratings of by each SP, and the gold standard was between 0.53 and 0.57, indicating a moderate agreement. The inter-rater reliability kappa coefficient between raters was 0.75 (P = 0.01).Conclusion:The authors have demonstrated the technique of using standardized patients to evaluate communication and counseling skills of pharmacy students. The findings indicated that trained SPs can be used as an effective tool to assess pharmacy students’ communication and counseling skills.
