Communication remains challenging to teach and evaluate. We designed an online patient survey to assess anesthesia residents' communication skills from August 2014 to July 2015. In December 2014, we implemented a customized, simulation-based curriculum. We calculated an overall rating for each survey by averaging the ratings for the individual questions. Based on the Hodges-Lehmann 2-sample aligned rank-sum test, overall ratings, reported as the median (interquartile range) of residents' average overall ratings, differed significantly between the preintervention (3.86 [3.76-3.94]) and postintervention (3.91 [3.84-3.95]) periods (P = .025). Future studies should assess the intervention's effectiveness and generalizability.
沟通仍然是一个具有挑战性的教学和评估领域。我们设计了一个在线患者调查,以评估麻醉住院医师的沟通技巧,时间为 2014 年 8 月至 2015 年 7 月。2014 年 12 月,我们实施了一项定制的、基于模拟的课程。我们通过平均个别问题的评分来计算每个调查的总体评分。基于 Hodges-Lehmann 2 样本一致秩和检验,总体评分(以居民平均总体评分的中位数(四分位距)表示)在干预前(3.86 [3.76-3.94])和干预后(3.91 [3.84-3.95])期间差异有统计学意义(P =.025)。未来的研究应该评估干预的有效性和普遍性。
