Purpose: The aim of this study was to examine the medical student knowledge regarding pediatric palliative care (PPC) and determine the predictors of knowledge among them toward PPC.
Methods: A cross-sectional engaging study was directed with 326 medical students studying in Jordanian universities. A campaign utilizing online social media and Web-based software were executed to promote, enlist, overview undergraduate medical students, and gather information for this study. The authors employed four techniques to select undergraduate medical students on paid-promoted Facebook, personal messages, and postings in clinical forums.
Results: The results of this study showed that medical students have inadequate knowledge about pediatric palliative care in Jordan. The only factors that predict the knowledge toward PPC is gender.
Conclusion: it should build the medical students' information on pediatric palliative care. The pointer was not significant in the multivariate studies, and that vicariate studies indicated no distinction in the overall scores on either test among the nonmedical students, Training projects ought to be established and delivered to pediatric medical students to improve their knowledge about pediatric palliative/palliative consideration.

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.
