Patient-doctor communication has become a topic of increasing importance and attention, with both personal and public health ramifications. Despite this, formal training in communication is rare in later professional life, and the best way of improving these skills is unknown. Recently, attention has turned to simulation as a way to teach communication skills to medical providers. In this article, we review the history and current evidence behind utilizing simulation for patient-doctor communication teaching, as well as the challenges for future research in this field as it progresses into mainstream practice.
医患沟通已成为一个日益重要和备受关注的话题,涉及个人和公共健康等诸多方面。尽管如此,在后期职业生涯中,沟通方面的正规培训却十分少见,而提高这些技能的最佳方法也尚未可知。最近,人们开始关注模拟教学在向医疗服务提供者传授沟通技巧方面的作用。本文综述了利用模拟进行医患沟通教学的历史和现有证据,以及随着该领域进入主流实践,未来研究在这方面面临的挑战。
