The knowledge and skills expected for board certification in Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine (NPM) should reflect the clinical practice of neonatology. First, a 14-member panel of practicing neonatologists, convened by the American Board of Pediatrics (ABP), drafted a practice analysis document which identified the practice domains, tasks, knowledge, and skills deemed essential for clinical practice. NPM fellowship program directors provided feedback via online survey resulting in revisions to the document. During the second phase of the project, the panel organized testable knowledge areas into content domains and subdomains to update the existing ABP NPM content outline. All ABP board-certified neonatologists were asked to review via online survey, and results were used to guide final revisions to the content outline. The NPM practice analysis document and the updated NPM content outline should serve as helpful resources for educators, trainees, and practicing neonatologists.
新生儿围产医学(NPM)委员会认证所需的知识和技能应反映新生儿科的临床实践。首先,由美国儿科学会(ABP)召集的 14 名在职新生儿科医生组成的专家组起草了一份实践分析文件,该文件确定了被认为对临床实践至关重要的实践领域、任务、知识和技能。NPM 研究员计划主任通过在线调查提供反馈,从而对该文件进行了修订。在项目的第二阶段,专家组将可测试的知识领域组织成内容领域和子领域,以更新现有的 ABP NPM 内容大纲。所有 ABP 认证的新生儿科医生都被要求通过在线调查进行审查,结果用于指导内容大纲的最终修订。NPM 实践分析文件和更新的 NPM 内容大纲应为教育者、学员和执业新生儿科医生提供有价值的资源。
