Healthcare professionals frequently communicate complex medical information among colleagues and students. This paper aims to determine gaps in healthcare professionals' presentation skills and identify barriers to improving. Eighty-eight individuals at a Midwest Academic Medical Center completed a survey that consisted of three parts: (1) respondents' current presentation slide deck, (2) respondents' perceptions of their current presentation skills, and (3) barriers to and motivations for improving their presentation skills. A mixed-methods approach was used to collect and analyze data. Respondents used bullet points and text the most (74%), and videos the least in their presentations (51%). When assessing respondents' perceptions of their current presentation skills, they rated themselves the lowest as a storyteller (median = 6/10) and as an overall presenter (median = 6/10). The biggest barrier reported was "lack of training on best practices" (58%). Respondents reported "interested in improving" and "enhance opportunities" as their main motivations for improving presentation skills. Four themes emerged from the open-ended survey items: . Effective presentation skills should be included in every healthcare professionals faculty development curriculum. This is especially crucial for junior faculty members to ensure their continued success.
医疗保健专业人员经常在同事和学生之间交流复杂的医学信息。本文旨在确定医疗保健专业人员演示技能方面的差距，并找出改进的障碍。中西部一所学术医疗中心的88名人员完成了一项包含三个部分的调查：（1）受访者当前的演示幻灯片；（2）受访者对自己当前演示技能的看法；（3）提高演示技能的障碍和动机。采用混合方法收集和分析数据。受访者在演示中使用要点和文字最多（74%），使用视频最少（51%）。在评估受访者对自己当前演示技能的看法时，他们给自己作为讲述者（中位数=6/10）和整体演示者（中位数=6/10）的评分最低。报告的最大障碍是“缺乏最佳实践培训”（58%）。受访者表示“有兴趣改进”和“增加机会”是他们提高演示技能的主要动机。开放式调查项目中出现了四个主题：有效的演示技能应纳入每个医疗保健专业人员的教师发展课程。这对初级教员尤其重要，以确保他们持续取得成功。
