To evaluate graduating pharmacy students' perceptions of their preparedness for advanced pharmacy practice experiences and the effectiveness of problem-based learning in their preparation.
A survey instrument was administered anonymously in May 2004 and May 2005 to graduating pharmacy students of the University of Mississippi School of Pharmacy.
Students reported that the areas in which problem-based learning prepared them most effectively for advanced pharmacy practice experiences were retrieval of medical information (80%), discussion of disease states and drug therapies at the basic science level (56%), and evaluation of the appropriateness of a medication regimen based on patient specific information (50%). Areas in which students reported being inadequately prepared included identifying and utilizing drug assistance programs (42%) and processing prescriptions/hospital orders (40%).
Data from 2 consecutive graduating classes supports that problem-based learning is an effective format for preparing pharmacy students for advanced pharmacy practice experiences in a variety of areas.
评估即将毕业的药学专业学生对其为高级药学实践经验做准备的认知情况，以及基于问题的学习在他们准备过程中的有效性。
2004年5月和2005年5月，对密西西比大学药学院即将毕业的药学专业学生进行了一项匿名调查。
学生们报告说，基于问题的学习在为高级药学实践经验做准备方面最有效地帮助他们的领域包括医学信息检索（80%）、基础科学层面的疾病状态和药物治疗讨论（56%）以及根据患者具体信息评估药物治疗方案的适宜性（50%）。学生们报告准备不足的领域包括识别和利用药物援助项目（42%）以及处理处方/医院医嘱（40%）。
来自连续两个毕业班的数据支持，基于问题的学习是一种有效的教学形式，可为药学专业学生在多个领域的高级药学实践经验做好准备。
