Competency-based medical education (CBME) has been the mandate by regulatory bodies of medical education in India, and implementation is an evolving process. This study aimed to identify and propose a set of entrustable professional activities (EPAs) for a master's degree in psychiatry. An attempt has been made to present it in the form of a portfolio.
Faculty experts in psychiatry went through phases of review to select appropriate EPAs for postgraduate residents from divergent thinking to development of portfolio.
One hundred and sixty-seven EPAs were identified and are presented. These were divided according to expertise required. Of these, 54% were considered vital, 30% essential, and 16% desirable.
It is envisaged that the use of EPAs and portfolios will be instrumental in implementation and success of CBME in psychiatry. It is expected that medical universities will incorporate them in their curricula. It is also expected that data will be generated to identify challenges, which shall guide future refinement of the EPAs.
基于能力的医学教育(CBME)已成为印度医学教育监管机构的要求,其实施是一个不断发展的过程。本研究旨在确定并提出一套针对精神病学硕士学位的可托付专业活动(EPA)。已尝试以档案袋的形式呈现这些活动。
精神病学领域的教师专家经历了多个审查阶段,从发散性思维到档案袋的开发,为研究生住院医师选择合适的EPA。
确定并列出了167项EPA。这些活动根据所需专业知识进行了分类。其中,54%被认为是至关重要的,30%是必不可少的,16%是理想的。
预计EPA和档案袋的使用将有助于CBME在精神病学领域的实施和成功。预计医科大学将把它们纳入课程。还预计将生成数据以识别挑战,这将指导未来对EPA的完善。
