A quasi-experimental study of trigger films for teaching the doctor-patient relationship.

Indian J Med Ethics

January 2025

Director Professor, Department of Physiology, University College of Medical Sciences, Delhi University, Delhi, INDIA.

Background: It is challenging to teach the complexity of the doctor-patient relationship through attitude, ethics, and communication (AETCOM) modules, particularly without being formally trained and especially to first-year medical students who do not interact directly with patients. The present study was undertaken to assess the effectiveness of trigger films (TFs) or short movie clips as a teaching-learning tool to train undergraduate medical students on various aspects of doctor-patient relationships.

Methods: Two modules on various aspects of the doctor-patient relationship were developed using TFs and written case studies and implemented on Phase Ⅰ medical students.

Feedback, in turn, provides external insights that complement reflection, helping learners recognize their strengths and weaknesses, adjust their learning strategies, and enhance clinical reasoning and decision-making skills. However, reflection alone may not produce the desirable effects unless coupled with feedback.
