Background: Assessment of faculty teaching and clinical skills is often based on learners' ratings. It is not clear that differences between the constructs are detectable in the results.

Purpose: The purpose is to examine relationships between (a) residents' ratings of faculty clinical excellence and teaching effectiveness and (b) track-related performance differences.

Methods: There were 3,713 evaluations for 399 faculty provided by 436 different residents. Eight items assess teaching effectiveness (5-point scale); five items assess clinical excellence (dichotomous scale). Each scale included a global item.

Results: Teaching effectiveness and clinical excellence ratings were correlated: .59 (p<.0001) for global scores and .55 (p<.0001) for scale scores. Teaching effectiveness ratings were not related to faculty track. Clinical excellence ratings showed differences of medium magnitude.

Conclusions: The moderate correlations between teaching and clinical domain scores suggests more thought be given about how to use both types of data for identifying the lowest and highest performing faculty.

Generally, the electrocardiography (ECG) system plays an important role in preventing and diagnosing heart diseases. To further improve the amenity and convenience of using an ECG system, we built a customized capacitive electrocardiography (cECG) system with one wet electrode, sixteen non-contact electrodes, two ADS1299 chips, and one STM32F303-based microcontroller unit (MCU). This new cECG system could acquire, save, and display the ECG data in real time.
