A needs assessment was conducted to determine what family doctors need to know about otolaryngology. A survey was mailed to a group of community otolaryngologists and family doctors. They were asked to rate the importance of 46 otolaryngologic topics. A true needs assessment was carried out with a small group of family practice residents to examine which needs were perceived to be significantly different in importance between these 2 survey groups. A list of important topics was generated from the survey. There were many statistically significant differences between the survey groups, but only 2, vertigo and epistaxis, appeared to be potentially important. The family practice residents (n = 8) were asked to complete a short-answer test about epistaxis management and then to demonstrate placement of an anterior nasal pack. Despite having already faced this problem in 50% of cases, the residents had average scores of less than 30%, indicating a lack of knowledge in this area.
开展了一项需求评估，以确定家庭医生需要了解哪些关于耳鼻喉科的知识。向一组社区耳鼻喉科医生和家庭医生邮寄了一份调查问卷。要求他们对46个耳鼻喉科主题的重要性进行评分。对一小群家庭医学住院医师进行了一次真正的需求评估，以检查这两个调查群体在哪些需求的重要性方面被认为存在显著差异。从调查中生成了一份重要主题清单。调查群体之间存在许多统计学上的显著差异，但只有眩晕和鼻出血这两个主题似乎具有潜在重要性。8名家庭医学住院医师被要求完成一份关于鼻出血处理的简答题测试，然后演示前鼻孔填塞的放置方法。尽管50%的住院医师已经遇到过这个问题，但他们的平均得分低于30%，表明在这方面缺乏知识。
