The Society for Academic Continuing Medical Education commissioned a study to clarify and, if possible, to standardize the terminology for a set of important educational interventions. In the form of a guideline, this article describes one such intervention, educational meetings, which is a common intervention in health professions' education. An educational meeting is an opportunity for clinicians to assemble to discuss and apply important information relevant to patient care. Based on a review of recent evidence and a facilitated discussion with US and Canadian experts, we describe proper educational meeting terminology and other important information about the intervention. We encourage leaders and researchers to consider and to build on this guideline as they plan, implement, evaluate, and report educational meeting efforts. Clear and consistent use of terminology is imperative, along with complete and accurate descriptions of interventions, to improve the use and study of educational meetings.
学术继续医学教育协会委托开展了一项研究,以澄清并在可能的情况下规范一系列重要教育干预措施的术语。本文以指南的形式描述了其中一种干预措施——教育会议,这是卫生专业教育中常见的干预措施。教育会议为临床医生提供了一个聚集在一起讨论和应用与患者护理相关的重要信息的机会。基于对近期证据的回顾以及与美国和加拿大专家进行的一次促进性讨论,我们描述了恰当的教育会议术语以及关于该干预措施的其他重要信息。我们鼓励领导者和研究人员在规划、实施、评估和报告教育会议工作时考虑并借鉴本指南。为了改进教育会议的应用和研究,必须清晰一致地使用术语,同时对干预措施进行完整准确的描述。
