The Nephrology Quiz and Questionnaire remains an extremely popular session for attendees of the annual Kidney Week meeting of the American Society of Nephrology. Once again, the conference hall was overflowing with audience members and eager quiz participants. Topics covered by the expert discussants included electrolyte and acid-base disorders, glomerular disease, ESRD/dialysis, and kidney transplantation. Complex cases representing each of these categories, along with single-best-answer questions, were prepared and submitted by the panel of experts. Before the meeting, training program directors of United States nephrology fellowship programs and nephrology fellows answered the questions through an Internet-based questionnaire. During the live session, members of the audience tested their knowledge and judgment on a series of case-oriented questions prepared and discussed by the experts. They compared their answers in real time using their cell phones with a special app with the answers of the nephrology fellows and training program directors. The correct and incorrect answers were then discussed after the results of the questionnaire were displayed. As always, the audience, lecturers, and moderators enjoyed this educational session. This article recapitulates the session and reproduces its educational value for Clinical Journal of the American Society of Nephrology readers. Enjoy the clinical cases and expert discussions.
肾脏病学问答环节对于美国肾脏病学会年度肾脏周会议的参会者来说一直是非常受欢迎的环节。会议大厅再次挤满了听众和热切的问答参与者。专家讨论者涵盖的主题包括电解质和酸碱紊乱、肾小球疾病、终末期肾病/透析以及肾脏移植。代表这些类别的复杂病例以及单项最佳答案问题由专家小组准备并提交。会议前,美国肾脏病学 fellowship 项目的培训项目主任和肾脏病学研究员通过基于互联网的问卷回答问题。在现场环节,听众成员就专家准备和讨论的一系列以病例为导向的问题测试他们的知识和判断力。他们使用手机通过一个特殊应用程序将自己的答案与肾脏病学研究员和培训项目主任的答案进行实时比较。在问卷结果显示后,接着讨论正确和错误答案。一如既往,听众、讲师和主持人都很享受这个教育环节。本文概括了该环节,并为《美国肾脏病学会临床杂志》的读者重现其教育价值。享受这些临床病例和专家讨论吧。
