Application of large language models in clinical record correction: a comprehensive study on various retraining methods.

Objectives: We evaluate the effectiveness of large language models (LLMs), specifically GPT-based (GPT-3.5 and GPT-4) and Llama-2 models (13B and 7B architectures), in autonomously assessing clinical records (CRs) to enhance medical education and diagnostic skills.

Materials And Methods: Various techniques, including prompt engineering, fine-tuning (FT), and low-rank adaptation (LoRA), were implemented and compared on Llama-2 7B.

A Multifaceted Educational Intervention in the Doctor-Patient Relationship for Medical Students to Incorporate Patient Agendas in Simulated Encounters.

From the beginning of their clinical training, medical students demonstrate difficulties when incorporating patient perspectives. This study aimed to assess if students, after an instructional programme, increased their sensitivity towards patients' needs and carried out bidirectional conversations. An observational study involving 109 medical students prior to their clerkships was designed.

Ibero-American consensus on learning outcomes for the acquisition of competencies by medical students through clinical simulation.

Objective: Our aim was to reach expert consensus on specific learning outcomes (LOs) that can be achieved through clinical simulation aimed at developing the competencies that medical students need to be able to successfully manage patients and assume general clinical responsibilities.

Materials And Methods: The six-member scientific committee peer-reviewed Spanish reference documentation (in line with the Bologna Process) on required competencies in medical undergraduate students to select an initial set of 16 competencies that could feasibly be developed through simulation and a corresponding set of 75 LOs. Snowball sampling was used to identify candidates for an international panel of simulation experts.

Teaching Urology to Undergraduates: A Prospective Survey of What General Practitioners Need to Know.

Background: Higher education training in Medicine has considerably evolved in recent years. One of its main goals has been to ensure the training of students as future adequately qualified general practitioners (GPs). Tools need to be developed to evaluate and improve the teaching of Urology at the undergraduate level.

Multi-source evaluation of an educational program aimed at medical students for interviewing/taking the clinical history using standardized patients.

Simulations with standardized patients (SP) have long been used for teaching/assessing communication skills. The present study describes and evaluates an experiential training methodology aimed at medical students and based on interviews with standardized simulated patients. The training was focused on developing basic communication skills and taking medical histories.
