Resident teaching of medical students is integral to medical education; however, there are few studies surveying residents, especially US physical medicine and rehabilitation (PM&R) residents, about their perspectives on teaching medical students. This descriptive survey study consisted of a 23-item cross sectional survey to elicit the current state of medical student teaching by PM&R residents and formal education for PM&R residents on teaching medical students. During an 8-wk period, 103 PM&R residents completed a web-based survey, which was distributed to residents via emails to PM&R residency program directors and coordinators. Ninety-seven (94.1%) respondents reported teaching medical students. A majority of these respondents (81.4%) reported favoring formalized education on medical student teaching; however, little more than half (51.5%) reported having that education. Majorities of residents with and without formal education on teaching medical students reported employing multiple teaching techniques to teach students in the clinical and nonclinical environments. The most commonly reported barrier to teaching students was time. While limited by study design and sample size, this study suggests that the availability of formalized education for PM&R residents on medical student teaching may not meet the needs or desires of residents.
医学生的住院医师教学是医学教育不可或缺的一部分；然而，很少有研究调查住院医师，尤其是美国物理医学与康复（PM&R）住院医师对医学生教学的看法。这项描述性调查研究包括一项23项的横断面调查，以了解PM&R住院医师对医学生教学的现状以及PM&R住院医师在医学生教学方面的正规教育情况。在8周的时间里，103名PM&R住院医师完成了一项基于网络的调查，该调查通过电子邮件分发给PM&R住院医师培训项目主任和协调员，再由他们分发给住院医师。97名（94.1%）受访者报告曾教过医学生。这些受访者中的大多数（81.4%）表示支持对医学生教学进行正规化教育；然而，只有略多于一半（51.5%）的人表示接受过这种教育。在有和没有医学生教学正规教育的住院医师中，大多数人报告在临床和非临床环境中采用多种教学技巧来教学生。最常提到的教学障碍是时间。尽管受到研究设计和样本量的限制，但这项研究表明，为PM&R住院医师提供的医学生教学正规化教育可能无法满足住院医师的需求或期望。
