“…30 In our primary analysis, we also found that parents participated more when a clerkship student presented. Because parents value contributing to bedside teaching, 31 parents may have participated more in our study because they were interested in contributing to education. Students may also omit information that parents wish to include, although it was found in a previous study conducted in the PICU that fourth-year student rounding presentations were more…”

OBJECTIVES: Although families positively perceive family-centered rounds (FCR), factors associated with engagement have been examined in few studies. Our objective for this study was to test the hypothesis that inviting the parent to speak and nurse presence are associated with parent engagement during FCR. METHODS: We conducted a cross-sectional study with English-speaking parents (N = 199) of inpatients on the pediatric hospital medicine service at an academic medical center. We used a standardized checklist to record outcomes of engagement (number of questions asked and participation occurrences), predictor variables (team invited parent to speak, nurse presence), and other encounter-related variables. Parents were surveyed to assess parent and child characteristics and experiences during FCR. We examined parent, child, and encounter characteristic associations with the above outcomes using bivariate analyses and (for those associated in bivariate analyses) Poisson regressions. RESULTS: Inviting the parent to speak was independently associated with the number of questions asked (incident rate ratio [IRR] 1.4; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.1–1.7). Trusting the medical team was inversely associated with questions asked (IRR 0.8; 95% CI 0.6–0.97). Factors associated with total participation included invitation for the parent to speak (IRR 1.5; 95% CI 1.3–1.6), nurse presence (IRR 1.3; 95% CI 1.1–1.5), white race (IRR 1.2; 95% CI 1.1–1.4), clerkship student presentation (IRR 1.2; 95% CI 1.03–1.3), and parent inclusion in rounding arrangement (IRR 1.5; 95% CI 1.05–2). CONCLUSIONS: Parents present during FCR are more engaged when invited to speak. Nurse presence was associated with total parent participation. Future studies to inform interventions to optimize engagement are warranted.

Objective Bedside teaching is an important element of training undergraduate and postgraduate medical students to attain clinical skills. The perceptions of patients about bedside teaching vary significantly based on their understanding of the educational climate in hospitals. This study aimed to evaluate the views of diverse groups of patients on bedside teaching and the degree of involvement of medical students in their clinical decision-making processes. Methods This was a cross-sectional study conducted among patients admitted to various departments of a tertiary care hospital. A total of 200 patients were surveyed by students using a questionnaire, which covered their knowledge, views, and expectations with respect to medical students in hospital settings and bedside teaching. Results The majority (83.5%) of patients surveyed felt that the students made the hospital environment more comfortable and friendly. Male patients chose to permit students’ involvement more than female patients. Among the female patients, teens, young adults, and unmarried women were more positive towards students' direct participation in their physical examinations. Health concerns and stress were issues for adults and older patients, whereas privacy and confidentiality concerned the younger age group. Patients admitted to the obstetrics and gynaecology wards were more likely to reject student involvement in hospital procedures than patients in other departments. Conclusion Most of the patients had a markedly positive attitude towards bedside teaching. Alternative methods of teaching can be implemented in situations where patients feel uncomfortable with students’ involvement during their hospital stay.

Bedside teaching is a common teaching modality in undergraduate and postgraduate curricula and involves students being supervised in a clinical interaction at a patient’s bedside by a more senior clinician. Following the clinical encounter, the students and teacher discuss the case and students’ consultation skills. This is of particular value in teaching paediatrics to medical students, for whom paediatrics is an unfamiliar environment, and the approach to consultation is very different to usual adult practice. Junior doctors are often tasked with teaching medical students, either in structured bedside teaching sessions during formal teaching roles, or in ad hoc sessions with students shadowing on clinical placements. As paediatrics may be unfamiliar to the junior doctors themselves, offering teaching to medical students may cause some anxiety in their own ability and knowledge. This article provides doctors in paediatrics with an insight into the evidence base underlying paediatric bedside teaching, including model structures for bedside teaching and debriefing after the session, with the aims of improving their confidence in undertaking these sessions and improving their learners’ and their own yield of learning.
