To determine the impact of active-learning strategies in a medication therapy management (MTM) elective on pharmacy students' preparedness to participate in real-life MTM counseling sessions.
The elective included active-learning assignments such as patient cases, group discussions, role playing, and use of actual patients to prepare students for MTM services.
A survey was administered before (week 11) and after (week 15) completing a face-to-face comprehensive medication review (CMR) to evaluate achievement of course objectives and students' preparedness to participate in MTM. In the pre-CMR survey, 66.7% of the students strongly agreed that the course prepared them to provide MTM services. In the post-CMR survey, 88.9% of the students strongly agreed (p = 0.046).
The active-learning strategies used in the MTM elective course provided students with the skills necessary to participate in MTM counseling sessions. Face-to-face CMRs better prepared pharmacy students to provide MTM services.
确定药物治疗管理 (MTM) 选修课程中采用的主动学习策略对药学学生参与真实 MTM 咨询的准备情况的影响。
该选修课程包括主动学习作业，如患者病例、小组讨论、角色扮演和使用实际患者，以准备学生提供 MTM 服务。
在完成面对面的综合药物评估 (CMR) 之前（第 11 周）和之后（第 15 周）进行了一项调查，以评估课程目标的实现情况以及学生参与 MTM 的准备情况。在 CMR 前调查中，66.7%的学生强烈同意该课程使他们有能力提供 MTM 服务。在 CMR 后调查中，88.9%的学生强烈同意（p=0.046）。
MTM 选修课程中使用的主动学习策略为学生参与 MTM 咨询提供了必要的技能。面对面的 CMR 使药学学生更好地准备提供 MTM 服务。
