Objective: Given the increasing prevalence of telehealth, medical students require dedicated instruction in the practice of high-quality telehealth. This study characterizes telehealth practices and curricula in pediatric core clerkships across the United States and Canada.
Methods: We surveyed pediatric core clerkship directors and site directors through the 2020 Council on Medical Student Education in Pediatrics (COMSEP) annual member survey.
Unlabelled: Park access is primarily conceived of as a question of proximity. We sought to develop a multidimensional tool based on a broad theory of green space access to better understand objective and subjective factors that capture varying dimensions of urban green space access that may be associated with its use.
Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study in two communities bordering a large park in Baltimore City, Maryland.
Introduction: Telephone triage requires a unique skillset that is not universally taught in medical school. This curriculum was developed to introduce third- and fourth-year medical students participating in their pediatrics core clerkship to the benefits, challenges, and mechanics of telephone triage.
Methods: After completing a presession textbook reading and listening to a brief lecture, students participated in two telephone role-play scenarios with parents.
Purpose: To report on the implementation of a telephone medicine curriculum as part of the core clerkship in pediatrics for students at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and evaluate the curriculum's effect on student performance on a telephone medicine case as part of a required objective structured clinical exam (OSCE).
Method: Using a prospective cohort design with a convenience sample of third-year medical students during the 2016-2017 and 2017-2018 academic years, the authors compared the OSCE scores of students assigned to the curriculum with both historical and concurrent control groups of students who had not received the curriculum. Additionally, the authors compared the costs of the recommended testing by students in each group using the 2018 Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Clinical Laboratory Fee Schedule.
