Physician assistants (PAs) are licensed to evaluate, diagnose, and treat dermatologic skin conditions. Data show that medical students have less than optimal dermatology diagnostic abilities. Although no known data exists for PA students, similar medical school and PA school training methods highlight a need for improved dermatology education in medical and PA programs. This project explored the use of perceptual and adaptive learning modules (PALMs) that target pattern recognition skills with PA students to hopefully improve PA knowledge of dermatology concepts.
医师助理(PAs)获得许可,可对皮肤病进行评估、诊断和治疗。数据显示,医学生的皮肤病诊断能力欠佳。尽管尚无关于医师助理学生的已知数据,但医学院和医师助理学院类似的培训方法凸显出医学和医师助理项目中改进皮肤病学教育的必要性。本项目探索了使用针对医师助理学生模式识别技能的感知和适应性学习模块(PALMs),以期提高医师助理对皮肤病学概念的了解。
