Many physicians believe that the tasks of postgraduate medical education and faculty development are best carried out by senior physicians trained in the appropriate specialty. However, many also will admit that, as physicians, they have received too little training for such an educational role, and that the practical demands of medical practice, scientific research, and administration make it difficult if not impossible to allocate time to continuing medical education program development, curriculum design for residency training, teacher training, and other key aspects of postgraduate medical education. Many medical disciplines have attempted to alleviate this problem by using nonphysician health-care educational consultants in their training programs. However, little attention has been paid to the possibilities of using such consultants in anesthesiology residency education and faculty development. Such consultants in postgraduate medical education and training programs in anesthesiology could perform a wide variety of functions and roles because they possess skills and technical expertise in teaching, training, curriculum design, evaluation, program planning, and interpersonal communications that faculty members often lack. The successful use of a nonphysician consultant in the Department of Anesthesiology at Hahnemann University in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, is described.
许多医生认为，研究生医学教育和教员发展任务最好由接受过适当专业培训的资深医生来执行。然而，许多人也会承认，作为医生，他们在这种教育角色方面接受的培训太少，而且医疗实践、科研和管理的实际需求使得即使不是不可能，也很难抽出时间来开展继续医学教育项目开发、住院医师培训课程设计、教师培训以及研究生医学教育的其他关键方面。许多医学学科试图通过在其培训项目中使用非医生医疗教育顾问来缓解这一问题。然而，在麻醉学住院医师教育和教员发展中使用此类顾问的可能性却很少受到关注。在麻醉学研究生医学教育和培训项目中，此类顾问可以发挥各种各样的功能和作用，因为他们具备教员通常所缺乏的教学、培训、课程设计、评估、项目规划和人际沟通方面的技能和专业知识。本文描述了宾夕法尼亚州费城哈内曼大学麻醉学系成功使用非医生顾问的情况。
