Nurse practitioner students, along with all primary care trainees, need breast cancer screening education. The purpose of the study was to compare the performances of nurse practitioner students and medical residents before and after receiving training.
In a pretest/posttest design, 51 nurse practitioner students and 47 medical residents received training either from a standardized patient or from a lecture/demonstration class. Before training and 1 year after, participants took the written test and had their skills evaluated by a standardized patient. There were no significant differences between the nurse practitioner students and the medical residents in the mean scores on the written pretest or on the written posttest with both groups improving their scores. The nurse practitioner students had significantly higher scores on the practicum posttest (P <.05).
Nurse practitioner students perform well in learning breast cancer screening. More than one method of teaching is effective.
执业护士专业学生以及所有初级保健实习生都需要接受乳腺癌筛查教育。本研究的目的是比较执业护士专业学生和住院医师在接受培训前后的表现。
采用前测/后测设计,51名执业护士专业学生和47名住院医师接受了来自标准化病人或讲座/示范课程的培训。在培训前和培训后1年,参与者进行了笔试,并由标准化病人对他们的技能进行评估。执业护士专业学生和住院医师在笔试前测平均分或笔试后测平均分上没有显著差异,两组的分数均有所提高。执业护士专业学生在实习后测中的得分显著更高(P<.05)。
执业护士专业学生在学习乳腺癌筛查方面表现良好。不止一种教学方法是有效的。
