“…The literature describes specific topics delivered in classrooms, ranging from traditional topics such as insulin pump use 39 and psychopharmacologic interventions, 54 to competencies such as communication skills and transition to practice. 32 , 67 , 71 Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education and CanMEDS standards are cited often as the impetus for nonmedical expert topics such as global health and surgical safety.…”

Background: Classroom-based education (CBE) is ubiquitous in postgraduate medical education (PGME), but to date no studies have synthesized the literature on the topic. We conducted a scoping review focusing on academic half days and noon conferences. Methods: We searched 4 databases (MEDLINE [OVID], Embase [OVID], ERIC [EBSCO] and Web of Science) from inception to December 2021, performed reference and citation harvesting, and applied predetermined inclusion and exclusion criteria to our screening. We used 2 frameworks for the analysis: “experiences, trajectories and reifications” and “description, justification and clarification.” Results: We included 90 studies, of which 55 focused on resident experiences, 29 on trajectories and 6 on reification. We classified 44 studies as “description,” 38 as “justification” and 8 as “clarification.” In the description studies, 12 compared academic half days with noon conferences, 23 described specific teaching topics, and 9 focused on resources needed for CBE. Justification studies examined the effects of CBE on outcomes, such as examination scores (17) and use of teaching strategies in team-based learning, principles of adult learning and e-learning (15). Of the 8 clarification studies, topics included the role of CBE in PGME, stakeholder perspectives and transfer of knowledge between classroom and workplace. Interpretation: Much of the existing literature is either a description of various aspects of CBE or justification of particular teaching strategies. Few studies exist on how and why CBE works; future studies should aim to clarify how CBE facilitates resident learning within the sociocultural framework of PGME.

The introduction of continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion in clinical care has led to more optimal glycemic and quality-of-life outcomes, compared with multiple daily injections (MDI). Despite this, some insulin pump users revert back to MDI. The aim of this review was to include the most recent rates of insulin pump discontinuation among people with type 1 diabetes and to identify reasons for and factors associated with discontinuation. A systematic literature search was conducted using the Embase.com, MEDLINE (via OVID), PsycINFO, and CINAHL databases. Titles and abstracts of eligible publications were screened, and baseline characteristics of the included studies were extracted, as were variables in the context of insulin pump use. Data were synthesized into themes: indications for insulin pump initiation, persons with type 1 diabetes (PWD)reported reasons for, and factors associated with insulin pump discontinuation. A total of 826 eligible publications were identified and 67 were included. Discontinuation percentages ranged from 0% to 30% (median 7%). The most frequently mentioned reasons for discontinuation were wear-related issues (e.g., device attached to the body, interference with daily activities, discomfort, affected body image). Related factors included hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) (17%), issues with following treatment recommendations (14%), age (11%), gender (9%), side effects (7%), and comorbidity-and complication-related factors (6%). Despite many developments in insulin pump technology, discontinuation rates and PWD-reported reasons for and factors associated with insulin pump discontinuation in more recent studies were comparable to earlier reviews/meta-analyses. Continuation of insulin pump treatment depends on a knowledgeable and willing health care provider (HCP) team and a close match with PWDs' wishes and needs.

Improving paediatric residents’ knowledge and perspectives regarding the insulin pump using a novel educational workshop

Abstract: There is scope for improvement in the knowledge and perceptions of RES regarding IPs. Educational interventions like ours are needed to familiarise our future physicians with IPs to allow hospitals to provide their systematic and safe inpatient use.
