However, review <strong>of</strong> medical studentreflections from <strong>UCSF</strong> and elsewhere revealed that mostconsisted <strong>of</strong> anecdotes with few <strong>of</strong> the educationalcomponents described in the literature. We hypothesizethat learners do not reflect in an educationally useful waybecause we have not trained them to do so.Methods: We conducted a randomized, controlled trial<strong>of</strong> the impact <strong>of</strong> reflective learning guidelines and facultyfeedback on reflective skills. All third year medicalstudents wrote reflections on pr<strong>of</strong>essionalism after their1st, 3rd and final clerkships. In a 2x2 design, half thestudents received reflective learning guidelines and halfdid not, and half in each <strong>of</strong> these groups receivedfeedback on both reflective skill and reflection contentand half received feedback on content alone. Reflectionswere scored by trained raters (r= 0.89) using apreviously validated 0 - 6 point rubric. We conducted ananalysis <strong>of</strong> covariance using 1st scores as the covariateand final scores as the dependent variable.Results: Mean reflection scores were 3.81 (sd=1.9)using guidelines and 2.22 (sd=.89) without guidelines(p

MUHAS soughtexpertise in undertaking the revision and incorporatingcompetencies into their teaching and assessment. Aninterpr<strong>of</strong>essional team from <strong>UCSF</strong> schools <strong>of</strong> dentistry,medicine, nursing and pharmacy provided consultation.Methods: Curriculum revision began in 2008 andincluded these key steps[1]: (1) extensive stakeholderconsultation; (2) determination <strong>of</strong> Tanzania's healthpriorities; (3) identification <strong>of</strong> competencies necessaryfor Tanzanian health pr<strong>of</strong>essionals; (4) faculty training incompetency-based education; (5) individual courserevision by faculty and (6) demonstrations by <strong>UCSF</strong>collaborators. Data and process that supported thesesteps included national surveys, focus groups,workshops and retreats.Evaluation Plan: By <strong>2011</strong>, curricula in all MUHASschools will be revised to include competency-basedobjectives, new strategies for instruction and studentassessment. Opportunities will be introduced for activelearning, clinical experience and structured fieldwork.Stakeholder consultation and periodic assessment <strong>of</strong>program outcomes by surveys <strong>of</strong> graduates andemployers are planned.Dissemination: MUHAS and <strong>UCSF</strong> faculty arepresenting this curriculum work and outcomes locally,regionally, and internationally. A website is inpreparation for sharing results, and supporting additionalregional and international collaborations.Reflective critique: There is ongoing exchange from allpartnership members evaluating progress to guidedecisions for next steps. MUHAS will pilot some aspects<strong>of</strong> the curriculum to ease the transition to the newapproach.

<strong>UCSF</strong> Education Day <strong>2011</strong>their future careers. We implemented a required yearlongcurriculum for all first-year health pr<strong>of</strong>essionsstudents. The curriculum included 2 half-day events(“IPE Days 1 & 2”) during which students collaborated ininterpr<strong>of</strong>essional teams <strong>of</strong> 9-10 students to addresshealthcare disparities and team communicationchallenges. Student teams also responded to four triggerquestions throughout the year using an online discussionforum.Methods: Students completed satisfaction surveys atthe end <strong>of</strong> each IPE Day and year using a 5-point Likertscale (1=strongly disagree, 5=strongly agree). Wedetermined utilization <strong>of</strong> the online forum by calculatingand categorizing student postings and identifying majorthemes.Results: 477 students participated in the curriculum.Students rated both IPE Days 1 and 2 as effective (Day1=4.06, Day 2=3.92) and relevant to their education(4.30, 4.06). 423 (88.9%) students participated in theonline forum generating 1205 postings. Studentresponse rate to the online questions decreased from83% to 26% over the year. Pharmacy students had thehighest online participation rate (92% responded at leastonce) and nursing the lowest (81%, p=0.02). Majordiscussion themes are presented.Discussion: We successfully implemented a novelinterpr<strong>of</strong>essional curriculum which was well received byfirst-year health pr<strong>of</strong>essions students. However, use <strong>of</strong>the online forums declined over time, suggesting theneed for further curricular refinements to sustainparticipation.Reflection: Input from faculty from all participatingschools was critical to the success <strong>of</strong> thisinterpr<strong>of</strong>essional initiative. Student feedback wasgathered via online and paper surveys, and was used toinform the expansion and refinement <strong>of</strong> the curriculum.What's Really So Different aboutLongitudinal Integrated Clerkships(LICs) and Block Clerkships?Findings from a Multi-CenterObservational, Work Sampling StudyBridget O'Brien, PhD, <strong>UCSF</strong>, bridget.obrien@ucsf.edu;Ann Poncelet, MD, <strong>UCSF</strong>, ann.poncelet@ucsf.edu; LoriHansen, MD, <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> South Dakota, <strong>San</strong>ford<strong>School</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Medicine</strong>, lori.hansen@usd.edu; David Hirsh,MD, Harvard Medical <strong>School</strong>, dhirsh@challiance.org;Barbara Ogur, MD, Cambridge Hospital, HarvardMedical <strong>School</strong>; Edward Krupat, PhD, Harvard Medical<strong>School</strong>; Erik Alexander, MD, Harvard Medical <strong>School</strong>,ealexander@partners.org; Iris Ma, <strong>UCSF</strong>; Karen Hauer,MD, <strong>UCSF</strong>, khauer@medicine.ucsf.eduAreas abstract covers: UMEDomain(s) addressed: Evaluation <strong>of</strong> Programs andCurricula, Longitudinal Educational ActivitiesPurpose: To compare direct and independent patientcare activities <strong>of</strong> longitudinal integrated clerkship (LIC)and block students at three medical schools.Background: Studies suggest that students in LICsmaintain more patient-centeredness throughout the yearcompared to students in block clerkships. Theexplanation may rest in students’ involvement in directpatient care activities.Methods: We conducted a yearlong, observational,work sampling study at 3 US medical schools with LICand block clerkships. Trained observers documentedstudents’ activities and level <strong>of</strong> participation every 10minutes for 4-hour periods in internal medicine andobstetrics-gynecology. In this analysis, we comparestudents’ participation in direct patient care activities inthe last three months <strong>of</strong> the clerkship year. Each studentwas observed 1-4 times. The observation session is theunit <strong>of</strong> analysis. Data analysis included calculatingmedian percentages <strong>of</strong> session time and Mann-WhitneyU-tests comparing percentage <strong>of</strong> session time that LICand block students’ engage in direct and independentpatient care activities.Results: We observed 44 students (28 LIC,16 block),resulting in 91 late year observations. Despite somedifferences among schools, LIC students overall spentsignificantly more time engaged in direct patient carecompared to block students (45%vs.35%,p=0.040) andmore time performing these direct patient care activitiesindependently than block students (25%vs.9%,p

Reflective skilldevelopment requires repeated practice with timelyfeedback. As medical schools increasingly incorporatereflection into their curricula, they must devise means <strong>of</strong>providing feedback to large numbers <strong>of</strong> learners onexercises that can be assessed for both reflective skilland reflective learning about a specified topic.Methods: A series <strong>of</strong> competency-based, formativeexercises were added across the first-year corecurriculum and linked to the MD Portfolio. We recruitedfaculty and staff to a feedback team via targeted emailsand announcements at curricular committee andAcademy meetings. A 1.5-hour-long training introducedvolunteer reviewers to critical reflection using theLEAP/SOAP model and related feedback guidelines andhad participants practice writing feedback on reflectiveskill development for several de-identified reflectionsamples. RESULTSThe initial call yielded 8 volunteers.A repeat call yielded 4 more. The feedback team <strong>of</strong> 9faculty from 8 departments and 3 educational staffprovided feedback on 456 reflections from September toDecember, 2010. To protect student privacy, reviewerscould not see previous reflections or feedback. Onaverage, faculty provided feedback on 3-5 reflections perweek, which delayed the feedback to students for up to4-6 weeks.Evaluation Plan: Reviewers will complete a surveyabout the experience and their feedback approach. Arater will score the quality <strong>of</strong> feedback in a random subsampleusing qualitative analysis and a feedback rubric.We will compare results from the first and thirdreflections and analyze relevant data from longitudinalstudent focus groups and course evaluations.Dissemination: ECC meetings; Education Day, WGEA,national meetings.Reflective critique: We will use the evaluationinformation to revise next year’s critical reflectioncurriculum.References:1. <strong>San</strong>dars, John.

Quality toolsbased on the principles <strong>of</strong> Continuous Improvement (CI)provide a medium for effective and immediate feedback.Methods: We developed an online CI module in theCollaborative Learning Environment through whicheducators and students can provide each other dailyfeedback. Over one year, two instructors on an inpatientneurology clerkship were assigned to use the modulewith their third-year students (10 students) and the restattended as usual (7 students). Students completed asurvey about feedback after their rotation. Instructorsusing the module were interviewed. The Wilcoxon ranksumtest was used to compare Likert scales.16 The Haile T. Debas Academy <strong>of</strong> Medical Educators


<strong>UCSF</strong> Education Day <strong>2011</strong>Evaluation Plan: The module was used an average <strong>of</strong>two times per week. Students using the module weremore satisfied with the amount (p=0.07) and quality(p=0.02) <strong>of</strong> their feedback. Those using the moduleagreed they received more (p=0.02) and higher quality(p=0.06) feedback compared to other rotations duringthird year. All stated the CI module should be adoptedon more clinical rotations. Educators found it timeintensivebut discovered it helped hone their skill atgiving quality feedback.Dissemination: The module will be expanded to otherinstructors in the neurology department in the comingyear.Reflective critique: The number <strong>of</strong> students andeducators using the module was small, but the receptionfrom students was very positive. Educators may still findtime a major hurdle in implementation.Curriculum in DevelopmentalDisabilitiesClarissa Kripke, MD, <strong>UCSF</strong> Department <strong>of</strong> Family andCommunity <strong>Medicine</strong>, kripkec@fcm.ucsf.edu; GerriCollins-Bride, RN, ANP, Community Health Systems,<strong>UCSF</strong> <strong>School</strong> <strong>of</strong> Nursing, gerri.collinsbride@nursing.ucsf.eduAreas abstract covers: UME, GME, CMEDomain(s) addressed: Curricular Innovation, Diversity,Interpr<strong>of</strong>essional Education, Primary CarePurpose: The goal <strong>of</strong> this project is to increase thecompetence <strong>of</strong> health care pr<strong>of</strong>essionals to meet thehealth care needs <strong>of</strong> adults with developmentaldisabilities.Background: In 2006 an interagency collaborative wasestablished to identify barriers to health care for adultswith developmental disabilities and to develop a pilot toaddress them.Methods: The Office <strong>of</strong> Developmental Primary Care(ODPC) was established in the <strong>UCSF</strong> Department <strong>of</strong>Family and Community <strong>Medicine</strong> to bring together aninterpr<strong>of</strong>essional team <strong>of</strong> clinicians to develop training atthe predoctoral, residency and faculty developmentlevels. ODPC developed a curricular map, competenciesand an interpr<strong>of</strong>essional student interest group. Theteam worked with community partners to develop acomprehensive website and set <strong>of</strong> curricular materialsincluding practice pearls, health maintenancerecommendations, information on accessing services,sample power point presentations, empathy exercises,chart forms, links, policy papers and sample referralletters. The team has presented the content in didacticpresentations to over 1300 trainees in different healthdisciplines.Evaluation Plan: The Office <strong>of</strong> Developmental PrimaryCare is tracking hits and downloads to its website (over3000 per month). We are collecting evaluations at everydidactic session.Dissemination: ODPC has integrated a problem basedlearning case into the predoctoral medical schoolcurriculum, developed an elective, integrated a healthadvocate from the Arc <strong>of</strong> <strong>San</strong> Francisco into the familymedicine residency training site and developed diadacticpresentations for over 1300 trainees in variousdisciplines, locally and nationally. Content has beensummarized in a guide to clinical care for all medicalstudents and in a book chapter for nursing students.Reflective critique: Revising and expanding the trainingand web materials is an ongoing, iterative process andwe continue to partner with people with disabilities andtheir advocates in all <strong>of</strong> our curriculum development.Development <strong>of</strong> a LongitudinalReflective and Narrative MedicalWriting Course for Third Year MedicalStudentsEmily Whichard, MS4, <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>California</strong> at <strong>San</strong>Francisco, emily.whichard@ucsf.edu; Margo Vener, MD,MPH, <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>California</strong> at <strong>San</strong> Francisco,mvener@fcm.ucsf.edu; Louise Aronson, MD, <strong>University</strong><strong>of</strong> <strong>California</strong> at <strong>San</strong> Francisco,aronsonl@medicine.ucsf.eduAreas abstract covers: UMEDomain(s) addressed: Curricular Innovation,Longitudinal Educational Activities, Medical Humanities,ReflectionPurpose: To design a longitudinal writing course forthird year medical students to reflect on their transition toclinical medicine and advance <strong>of</strong> their public writingskills.Background: The literature describes reflection as atool for self-regulated life-long learning and development<strong>of</strong> pr<strong>of</strong>essional practice. The growing diversity <strong>of</strong> typesand venues for narrative medical writing presents anopportunity to help students translate reflective learninginto writings which effectively communicate their uniqueclinician experiences to colleagues and the public.Methods: Curriculum development consisted <strong>of</strong>: (1) aliterature review <strong>of</strong> public medical writing; (2) informalsurveys <strong>of</strong> course directors and medical students aboutreflection and writing interests and needs; (3) selection<strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>California</strong>, <strong>San</strong> Francisco • <strong>School</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Medicine</strong> 17

We then piloted aseven-session course with Model SFGH volunteers in2010-<strong>2011</strong> and solicited their feedback on coursemethods and goals. We obtained Academic Senateapproval and recruited faculty for a 4-session,longitudinal, third year medical student course entitled“Public Medical Writing” to start in the <strong>2011</strong>-12 academicyear.Evaluation Plan: Evaluation will include tracking <strong>of</strong>student enrollment and retention in year one andenrollment in subsequent years, student preparation forsessions, and student completion <strong>of</strong> one short, revised,publication quality narrative medical writing piece. At theend <strong>of</strong> the course, students will complete courseevaluations and a knowledge test <strong>of</strong> public medicalwriting types and venues. Finally we will analyze studentwritings for writing, storytelling and reflective traits usingpreviously validated rubrics.Dissemination: Health & Society Works-in-Progress;Pathways to Discovery symposium; WGEA.Reflective critique: The final course reflects feedbackfrom third year course directors, Model SFGH directors,course pilot participants and other pathways learners.Four Primary Care ResidencyTraining Programs DevelopLeadership, Cultural Competence,and Community Advocacy andPartnership Curricula throughCollaborationSharad Jain, MD, <strong>UCSF</strong>, Sharad.Jain@ucsf.edu; CraigKeenan, UC Davis, craig.keenan@ucdmc.ucdavis.edu;Steve Roey, <strong>San</strong>ta Clara Valley Medical Center,Steve.Roey@hhs.sccgov.org; Kathleen Hicks, AlamedaCounty Medical Center, khicks@acmedctr.orgValley Medical Center) that provide care to underservedpopulations and the development <strong>of</strong> a curriculum thataddresses topics on leadership, advocacy, communitypartnerships, and cultural competency.Methods: Program leadership worked together todevelop training models that can be implemented,evaluated, and ultimately disseminated to a broaderaudience <strong>of</strong> residency training programs. The process <strong>of</strong>developing a comprehensive curriculum for medicineresidents to learn these core topics requiredcollaboration to (1) perform an assessment <strong>of</strong> currentcurricula being delivered and compare these curriculawith the literature and national guidelines, (2) implementcurricular design to facilitate delivery at programs withwide variations in schedules and logistics, and (3)document the impact <strong>of</strong> these innovations on residentphysicians’ knowledge, skills, and attitudes.Evaluation Plan: The impact <strong>of</strong> the curriculum onresidents is currently being assessed using pre- andpost- surveys. Informal survey <strong>of</strong> faculty and residentsinvolved in the curricula demonstrated great satisfactionwith the process and ease <strong>of</strong> delivery with thecurriculum.Dissemination: Collaboration with specific curricularobjectives provides a valuable method for rapiddevelopment and delivery <strong>of</strong> curricula to addressdisparities among training physicians and proved aninvaluable technique that is both transferable and flexibleto fit individual programs’ needs. We also believe thatthis process had significant beneficial impact on facultydevelopment. We plan to disseminate our work throughpresentations at various meetings and to make ourcurriculum available to other programs.Reflective critique: We await learner feedback throughour surveys, as well as from our dissemination efforts.This feedback will help improve the curriculum.Areas abstract covers: GMEDomain(s) addressed: Community <strong>Medicine</strong>, CurricularInnovation, LeadershipPurpose: Physicians, especially those working in safetynet systems, must be trained to address disparitiesserving as "agents <strong>of</strong> change" to improve outcomes fortheir patients.Background: We describe a collaborative processamong four primary care medicine residency trainingprograms (<strong>UCSF</strong>/SFGH, Alameda County MedicalCenter, <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>California</strong>, Davis, and <strong>San</strong>ta Clara18 The Haile T.

Sharing <strong>of</strong> resources is onesuch factor that facilitates learning, while negativefactors include role uncertainty and emphasis on isolatedwork. Medical education studies have furtherdemonstrated that both undergraduate and graduatelearners struggle with such learning barriers, particularlywhen entering a new role or hospital. Staggered shiftsand rotation-centered traditions also hamper the sharing<strong>of</strong> practices and resources. One solution isasynchronous education through an interdisciplinaryonline resource.Methods: We developed a website to function as astand-alone web portal (sfghtrauma.org), with public andpassword-protected areas accessible at all times. SFGHfaculty with prominent roles in trauma education for eachdepartment contributed the curricular materials used foreach trainee rotation. The authors consolidated, created,and agreed upon the final content. All learners receivedwritten and verbal instructions to utilize the website astheir primary information source.Evaluation Plan: Evaluation <strong>of</strong> this work will investigatechanges in faculty teaching perceived learning outcomesfrom students and faculty, and end-<strong>of</strong>-rotationevaluations <strong>of</strong> the website.Dissemination: This resource will be discoverable viainternet search engines and continually accessible toboth the public and <strong>UCSF</strong> community. We plan topublish our outcomes in a relevant educational journal.We will publish our creation process for shared, topicbasedresources on AAMC MedEdPortal.Reflective critique: We are soliciting both learner andfaculty feedback through written questionnaires andfocus groups.

Existing tools largely focus on crisissituations such as resuscitations or surgicalemergencies. The Leadership Practice Inventory (LPI) isa validated and reliable leadership assessment toolwidely used in the business world to provide multisourcefeedback in varied settings. This tool, however,does not adequately address experiences on a clinicalteam.Methods: We performed an in-depth literature review onteamwork and team leadership in clinical workenvironments using PubMed and Business SourceComplete. We identified 5 assessment instruments forleadership in clinical crisis situations and modified theLPI tool to incorporate relevant concepts from theseinstruments. The resulting pilot Leadership Observationand Feedback Tool (LOFT) is a 5-domain instrumentwith 15 questions constructed to capture observedleadership behaviors and give suggestions forimprovement using open-ended text.Evaluation Plan: We have started a study amongpediatric and internal medicine residents and anticipatecollecting approximately 80 pilot LOFTs. We will conducta qualitative analysis <strong>of</strong> the LOFT responses untilsaturation has been reached to identify themes anddelineate a spectrum <strong>of</strong> physician behaviors in each <strong>of</strong>the 5 leadership practice domains. This will inform thecreation <strong>of</strong> behavioral anchors on a scale from novice toexpert that we can use to create a quantitative LOFT.Dissemination: We will summarize the qualitativefindings in a manuscript for peer reviewed publication.Reflective critique: Our project was reviewed byESCape prompting us to recognize the need to start witha qualitative LOFT in order to establish behavioralanchors for a quantitative tool.References:1.

However, administrativeresource-intensivity and uneven facilitator quality impactthe overall effectiveness <strong>of</strong> the modality. Given theincorporation <strong>of</strong> ACGME competencies into UME, thereis a need for early, structured practice in the domains <strong>of</strong>Interpersonal & Communication Skills, Practice-BasedLearning and Pr<strong>of</strong>essionalism.Methods: We developed 3 peer-facilitated (PF) basicscience small group sessions. Content learning isfaculty-supported by electronic and in-person “roving” Q-and-A, and multiple choice questions with instantfeedback. An accompanying self-facilitation curriculumconsists <strong>of</strong> an introductory large group presentation,incorporating audience participation, and a selffacilitateddebriefing after the first group. These sessionswere designed to explicitly address non-medicalknowledge learning by encouraging analysis <strong>of</strong> groupprocess and personal goal-setting.Evaluation Plan: To address the efficacy <strong>of</strong> the PFgroups for medical knowledge acquisition and forpractice <strong>of</strong> specific skills in other competency domains,we have collected student responses to quantitative andopen-ended questions. We have also collected objectiveperformance data from course examination questions.This data will be discussed and compared to thatcollected from more traditional small groups.Dissemination: Curriculum details and preliminaryevaluation data have been shared with curriculumoversight committees, and implementation in othercourses has been discussed. We will considersubmission to MedEdPORTAL and outside conferencesor journals once program evaluation is complete.Reflective critique: Based on pilot-year feedback, thegroups have been modified with increased contentcomplexity, additional multiple-choice questions, and theimproved use <strong>of</strong> technology and the new Teaching andLearning Center for faculty “check-ins” with groups.Future evaluation and implementation will also beinformed by outcomes from implementation <strong>of</strong> Team-Based Learning in the Essential Core.Preparing for Teaching Health CenterResidency Programs: Migrant and FarmWorker 4th Year Transition ElectiveAdriana Padilla, MD, <strong>UCSF</strong> Fresno Family and Community<strong>Medicine</strong>, apadilla@fresno.ucsf.eduAreas abstract covers: UMEDomain(s) addressed: Curricular Innovation, PrimaryCare, ReflectionPurpose: The Migrant and Farm worker elective engagesparticipants in a pathway highlighting primary health care incommunity health centers while learning about systemsbased practice. Such pathways will be critical to transition4th year students into teaching health centers.Background: Academic <strong>Medicine</strong>’s November 2010 journalhighlights the challenge <strong>of</strong> “Taking back Year 4.”1 Wallingand Merando further suggest that goals for the fourth yearshould be clarified.2 The Affordable Care Act will promoteteaching health centers (THC) which are expected todevelop in the Central Valley.

Selfreporteddiscomfort and lack <strong>of</strong> experience dealing withalcohol and drug problems are associated with lowerconfidence in SBIRT skills among <strong>UCSF</strong> internalmedicine resident physicians. Moreover, half <strong>of</strong> clinicpatients surveyed anonymously at the teaching countyhospital reported lack <strong>of</strong> counseling about safe drinkinglimits by their providers.Methods: We implemented a 7-week, 32-hourlongitudinal SBIRT curriculum for internal medicineresidents (n=32) at the teaching county hospital. Thecurriculum included SBIRT didactics, small groupdiscussions, skills practice role-plays, and site visits tolocal substance use treatment and referral programs.Written narrative reflections, clinical case discussions,and clinical observation checklists were used to evaluateresidents.Evaluation Plan: Qualitative analysis <strong>of</strong> residents’narrative reflections showed an increase in confidenceusing SBIRT skills with their patients. Residents citedlack <strong>of</strong> time, competing work responsibilities, lack <strong>of</strong>preceptor support, and patient resistance as barriers tocontinued use <strong>of</strong> SBIRT. Analysis <strong>of</strong> qualitative checklistdata revealed that residents screened skillfully forsubstance use disorders and employed patient-centeredlistening skills, while struggling with “rolling withresistance” and formulation <strong>of</strong> specific action plans.Dissemination: Dissemination plans include presentingSBIRT curriculum development through posterpresentations and publications in scientific journals.

The inability to reliably recognizenormal structures significantly delays the goal <strong>of</strong> startingto learn the spectrum <strong>of</strong> normal variation and pathology.When learners attempt the methods (studying atlasesand asking the expert to point out structures) which workwell for CT and MR which have visually obviousreference anatomy, they discover that ultrasound imageshave few visually obvious reference anatomic structuresand using these learning techniques <strong>of</strong>ten results infrustration and failure.Methods: A self-learning powerpoint series wasdeveloped to teach the detailed anatomy required to findvisual reference for abdominal (the abdomen waschosen for ample reference anatomy) ultrasound.Normal contiguous CT images were reconstructed in thecommon planes used for ultrasound and displayed bothunlabeled and then labeled with the required anatomy ina fashion designed to reinforce the relationships <strong>of</strong> thereference anatomy. An explanation <strong>of</strong> the differentappearance <strong>of</strong> the reference anatomy on ultrasoundcompared to CT is followed by ultrasound images,unlabeled and labeled so that the learner can self-test.The series is designed so that the learner can work attheir own pace and retrace steps.Evaluation Plan: Various learners including residentphysicians, medical students, and ultrasound technologystudents will be surveyed as to usefulness <strong>of</strong> the series.Dissemination: We plan to share our experience withour colleagues at the Association <strong>of</strong> <strong>University</strong>Radiologists Annual Meeting.Reflective critique: Ultrasound experts includingphysicians and technologists will be surveyed regardingthe change in perceptive abilities <strong>of</strong> the learners.Team-Based Journal Club: ALongitudinal Approach to Evidence-Based <strong>Medicine</strong> (EBM) TrainingDuring ResidencyRenee Kinman, MD, PhD, Children’s Hospital Central<strong>California</strong>, <strong>UCSF</strong> Fresno Medical Education Program,rkinman@childrenscentralcal.org; Serena Yang, MD,MPH, <strong>UCSF</strong> Fresno Medical Education Program,syang@fresno.ucsf.eduAreas abstract covers: GMEDomain(s) addressed: Curricular Innovation,Longitudinal Educational Activities, ResidencyPurpose: To demonstrate the feasibility <strong>of</strong> a teambased,longitudinal journal club at <strong>UCSF</strong> FresnoPediatric Residency ProgramBackground: Physicians must keep abreast <strong>of</strong> evolvingevidence while monitoring and improving upon theirpractices.

Model SFGH is an innovative 6-monthtrack for third-year students interested in urban health.Students complete three semi-integrated clerkships inunderserved settings, follow continuity patients, andwork in community health.Methods: Using match data from 2007-10, wecompared specialty and program choice <strong>of</strong> graduatingstudents who completed Model SFGH (59) to graduatingstudents who had not participated (600). We alsoevaluated match results from 2004-6, before ModelSFGH.Results: Compared to non-participants, Model SFGHstudents have higher rates <strong>of</strong> matching into primary careresidencies (66% vs. 38%), and/or programs inunderserved communities (37% vs. 18%). Compared tothe three years before implementation <strong>of</strong> Model SFGH,this represents an increase in the rate <strong>of</strong> matching intoprimary care for the total graduating class (40% vs 30%)but not an increase in underserved programs (19% vs20%).Discussion: Model SFGH students match morefrequently into primary care and/or underservedresidencies than non-participants.

Eachstudent examined 4 patients, two <strong>of</strong> whom had focaldeficits. Outcomes <strong>of</strong> interest were the correctidentification <strong>of</strong> patients with focal deficits, number <strong>of</strong>specific deficits detected, and examination duration.Outcomes were assessed by an investigator blinded togroup assignments. McNemar’s test was used tocompare the sensitivity and specificity <strong>of</strong> the twoexamination methods.Results: Sensitivity was higher with hypothesis-drivenexaminations than screening examinations (78% versus56%; p = 0.046), although specificity was lower (71%versus 100%; p = 0.046).

Based onour knowledge <strong>of</strong> adult and workplace learning, weintend to include longitudinal educational programs inthe curriculum.Methods: Two authors did independent PubMedliterature searches on longitudinal curricula using MeSHterms from seminal articles in the field. Almost 1,000articles were retrieved. After scanning all titles andreading pertinent abstracts, relevant articles werereviewed. Findings were recorded in a template andcommon themes identified.Results: Factors that significantly impact residentsatisfaction and learning include: 1) Clear goals andobjectives, 2) preceptor and patient care continuity, 3)protection from inpatient responsibilities, and 4)adequate ancillary support. Clinic objectives are <strong>of</strong>tenbased on needs assessments completed via residentsurvey. Other longitudinal experiences such ascommunity projects and problem-based learning (PBL)cases can easily be integrated into clinics to complementlearning in clinical settings. As residents advance, theyneed less direct observation, more guidance in practicemanagement, and more opportunities for self-directedquality improvement projects.Discussion: An ideal longitudinal educational programin a psychiatry residency might involve a weeklyexperience in a general psychiatry continuity clinicspanning all four years that involves lasting relationshipswith preceptors and gradually decreasing direct clinicalsupervision complemented by increasing involvement inpractice management decisions and projects. Anadaptation <strong>of</strong> this abstract was submitted to the WGEA.Reflective critique: A psychiatry residency clinicalcurriculum committee (CCC) comprised <strong>of</strong> educatorsfrom multiple <strong>UCSF</strong> training sites meets regularly toreview findings and discuss their implications for ourcurriculum redesign.

Despite this, faculty <strong>of</strong>tenfield complaints and struggle to maintain attendance andparticipation at JC. Features associated with greaterthan 50% attendance and existence greater than 2 yearswere previously investigated in internal medicine-basedJCs. Successful internal medicine JCs were associatedwith mandatory attendance, larger residencies, andincreased resident leadership. However, little is knownabout general features <strong>of</strong> anesthesia-based JCs.Furthermore, features associated with success have yetto be identified.Methods: Nationwide, 117 anesthesiology programdirectors received an e-mailed survey assessing JCfeatures. Successful JCs were defined as existing morethan four years with an average attendance rate over50%. Data were assessed using chi-square and t-testanalysis.Results: Eighty programs responded (response rate,68%). Seventy-seven (96%) conduct JC. Typically, JCsmeet monthly for 1 hour.

O’Sullivan,<strong>UCSF</strong>, osullivanp@medsch.ucsf.eduBackground: Descriptive studies suggest that studentrunclinics (SRCs) positively impact participatingstudents. However, studies rarely include students frommultiple pr<strong>of</strong>essions, validated instruments, and a controlgroup. At our health pr<strong>of</strong>essions campus, first-yearstudents can participate in SRCs focusing on specificunderserved populations: Latino(a), Asian/PacificIslander, and urban homeless communities. In thisstudy, we used validated measures to explore the impact<strong>of</strong> these SRCs on preclinical students’ sociocultural andinterpr<strong>of</strong>essional attitudes.Methods: Using a pre-post control group design, weconducted a prospective cohort study <strong>of</strong> first-yearmedical, nursing, and pharmacy students whoparticipated in SRCs and those who did not. At thebeginning and end <strong>of</strong> the year, they completed surveysconsisting <strong>of</strong> demographics, validated measures onsociocultural awareness (SAMI) and readiness forinterpr<strong>of</strong>essional learning (RIPLS), and open-endedquestions.Results: Of all participating students, 77% (274 <strong>of</strong> 358)completed the post-survey, with 68% (n=182) havingmatching pre-post surveys. Students held positiveattitudes in sociocultural and interpr<strong>of</strong>essional domains.After adjusting for baseline scores, attitudes did not differsignificantly between those who participated in SRCsand those who did not. In the qualitative analysis, 99%reported reinforced or increased commitment to workingwith the underserved. Forty percent reported that theirexperiences made a positive impact on theirinterpr<strong>of</strong>essional attitudes.Discussion: In this study, we found no quantifiableeffect <strong>of</strong> SRC participation on sociocultural orinterpr<strong>of</strong>essional attitudes. However, students perceivedbenefits in both domains, suggesting that the SAMI andRIPLS may not be sensitive enough for measuring theeffects <strong>of</strong> SRCs. Further studies are needed to assessthe long-term impact <strong>of</strong> preclinical SRCs.Reflective critique: We have incorporated extensivefeedback from advisors and ESCape, and havesubmitted the abstract to an education meeting.Areas abstract covers: UMEDomain(s) addressed: Cultural Competence, Diversity,Evaluation <strong>of</strong> Programs and Curricula, Interpr<strong>of</strong>essionalEducationPurpose: To evaluate the impact <strong>of</strong> student-run clinics(SRCs) on sociocultural and interpr<strong>of</strong>essional attitudesacross health pr<strong>of</strong>essions.<strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>California</strong>, <strong>San</strong> Francisco • <strong>School</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Medicine</strong> 33


<strong>UCSF</strong> Education Day <strong>2011</strong>Integrating Multiple Levels <strong>of</strong>Learners into an InterdisciplinaryTeam-Based Model <strong>of</strong>Ambulatory CareKatherine Julian, MD, <strong>UCSF</strong>, kathy.julian@ucsf.edu;Bridget O'Brien, Ph.D., <strong>UCSF</strong>,ObrienB@medsch.ucsf.edu; Maria Wamsley, MD,<strong>UCSF</strong>, maria.wamsley@ucsf.eduAreas abstract covers: UME, GMEDomain(s) addressed: Evaluation <strong>of</strong> Programs andCurricula, Health Systems, Interpr<strong>of</strong>essional Education,Primary CarePurpose: Near-peer teaching may be more effectivethan expert teaching. This project describes theintegration <strong>of</strong> interns/PISCES students into internalmedicine (IM) resident continuity clinic teams to promotenear-peer teaching among multi-level learners.Background: One limitation <strong>of</strong> the PISCES clerkship isthe relative lack <strong>of</strong> interaction with residents. IMresidents and interns have little interaction in clinic dueto separate continuity clinic days. Increasing teachinginteractions among residents, interns, and medicalstudents is desirable to promote near-peer teaching.Methods: In 2008, IM PGY2/PGY3 continuity clinics atParnassus/Zion were reorganized to create a teambasedmodel <strong>of</strong> care. In 2009, we integrated 14 PISCESstudents and 26 interns into the teams. Each teamconsisted <strong>of</strong> one attending, 2-6 PGY2/3 residents, 2-3interns, one LVN and one administrative assistant. 9 <strong>of</strong>10 teams included PISCES students.Results: Interns/PGY2/PGY3 residents were surveyedregarding their satisfaction with the team model. PISCESstudents participated in focus groups. 36 <strong>of</strong> 70 residentsresponded. 51% reported improved informal peermentoring; 38% reported improved educationalenvironment; 70% reported seeking advice from residentpeers in clinic and 59% reported receiving qualityteaching from resident peers. 87% <strong>of</strong> residentrespondents supported student presence on the teamsbut only 29% felt that students were effectivelyintegrated into the team structure. Although PISCESstudents reported positive learning experiences in IMclinic and appreciated resident interactions, they didn’tstrongly identify as members <strong>of</strong> their clinic team.Discussion: Integrating interns/residents in continuityclinic improved informal peer mentoring, near-peerteaching, collegiality and the clinic educationalenvironment. Residents overwhelmingly supported thepresence <strong>of</strong> students on their clinic teams. However,most residents and students did not feel that studentswere effectively integrated into the team structure.Reflective critique: More work must be done to betterintegrate students into clinic teams and increase theinteraction with interns and residents.Learners' Perspectives onEffective MentorshipChristy Boscardin, PhD, <strong>UCSF</strong>,christy.boscardin@ucsf.edu; Renee Courey, PhD,<strong>UCSF</strong>, CoureyR@medsch.ucsf.edu; Louise Aronson,MD MFA, <strong>UCSF</strong>, aronsonl@medicine.ucsf.edu; AllisonChen, <strong>UCSF</strong>, ChenAM@medsch.ucsf.edu; Mark Lovett,<strong>UCSF</strong>, LovettM@medsch.ucsf.eduAreas abstract covers: UMEDomain(s) addressed: Evaluation <strong>of</strong> Programs andCurricula, MentoringPurpose: The purpose <strong>of</strong> the study was to identifycharacteristics <strong>of</strong> mentors that students considerimportant for effective mentorship in the Pathwaysprogram.Background: Mentorship can significantly influencepersonal development, career choice, and researchproductivity. The <strong>UCSF</strong> Pathways to Discovery programprovides in depth training for careers beyond the routinepractice <strong>of</strong> medicine. Program success depends oneffective mentoring currently delivered by a team <strong>of</strong>project mentors and program directors. Learnerscurrently identify project mentors based on contentexpertise and project interest.Methods: 10 randomly selected medical studentsparticipated in a focus group. The learners were asked aseries <strong>of</strong> structured, open-ended questions to describetheir experience working with project mentors. 35students also completed a survey item (4 point-scale)rating their overall experience with mentorship.Results: 30 (86%) students rated mentorship quality asvery good or excellent (3 to 4). Learners described aneffective mentor as someone who provided contentexpertise but was also a “good advocate” and <strong>of</strong>feredinsight into the student’s career interests.Discussion: Although learners select mentors based oncontent expertise, learners expect each mentor toprovide scholarly, career development, and psychosocialsupport. While many faculty met their role as projectmentors, learner expectations match program-widegoals rather than narrower project mentor roles. Tobetter align learner expectations and availablementoring, we are 1) creating materials that explain the34 The Haile T. Debas Academy <strong>of</strong> Medical Educators

Unfortunately, video review withindividual students is time-consuming for faculty; thismay limit video usage (4).Methods: During 2010, we reviewed data for 40 thirdyearstudents in group video reviews at a public andprivate medical school. In one model, students wererecorded with standardized patients, faculty selectedpositive moments, and video clips were reviewed insmall groups. In the other model, students wererecorded with actual patients, students selectedchallenging moments, and video clips were reviewed insmall groups. Both small groups included five studentsand one preceptor. Sessions focused onpr<strong>of</strong>essionalism, communication, and relationship skills.Focus groups and open-ended surveys were used forqualitative theme analysis.Results: Students in both groups found video reviewvaluable. Students cited improved communicationstrategies and agenda-setting as particular strengths.Students reported benefit from watching their peers.Preceptors found group debriefing effective and efficient,noting that respect and confidentiality were essential.Preceptors valued gaining insight into students’pr<strong>of</strong>essionalism and self-reflection. All foundtechnological hurdles frustrating.Discussion: Many schools struggle with how to bestteach pr<strong>of</strong>essionalism in a meaningful, time-efficientmanner. Our study suggests group video reviewprovides an effective format for modeling pr<strong>of</strong>essionalskills, providing feedback, and discussingcommunication issues.Reflective critique: We presented this work at STFMfor feedback. Future studies should evaluate whetherlongitudinal video review sessions could add benefit forlearning.References:1. Mann, Adv Health Sci Educ Theory Pract 2007.2. Hodges, Med Educ. 2009.3.

In longitudinaloutpatient rotations, students value continuity withpatients and preceptors (2,3). To explore innovative 3rdyearmodels, <strong>UCSF</strong> <strong>of</strong>fers the required Family <strong>Medicine</strong>clerkship in three formats — a 6-week block rotation, 6-month longitudinal rotation (Model SFGH), or 12-monthlongitudinal-integrated experience (PISCES).Methods: We assessed course evaluations, writtenexams, clinical practice exam (CPX) scores, andresidency match results for 2008-2010. We alsoevaluated student responses to open-ended surveys.Results: On course evaluations (1=poor; 5=excellent),PISCES students reported the highest teaching quality(block=4.25; 6-month=4.21; 12-month=4.46). Longerclerkship length correlated with students reporting betterfeedback on clinical skills (block=3.77; MSFGH=3.90;PISCES=4.29).

Students in either longitudinal modelwere more likely to describe continuity relationships withpatients and preceptors/role models as strong positiveinfluences on their medical education. For 2008-2010,Model SFGH matched into Family <strong>Medicine</strong> at a higherrate than other students (18%vs6%).Discussion: Both the 6 month longitudinal and the 12-month longitudinal integrated model seem to <strong>of</strong>fer betterfeedback, positive continuity experiences, and morehighly-rated clerkship experiences than the traditionalmodel. However, longitudinal models are also moreresource-intensive. Any discussion <strong>of</strong> which model isoptimal should include consideration <strong>of</strong> outcomes as wellas resource use.Reflective critique: This work was discussed at STFM.Future research will focus on how to extend optimalaspects <strong>of</strong> the longitudinal models to students in all FMclerkship models.References:1.

The hiddencurriculum may influence students' perceptions <strong>of</strong> a fieldand these perceptions may persist because studentslack opportunities to challenge them early in training.Inaccurate or negative perceptions may interfere withstudents’ openness to learning and interaction withpatients and team members.Methods: Medical students were asked to "describe onepreconceived notion about the specialty <strong>of</strong> anesthesia"at the start <strong>of</strong> their required <strong>UCSF</strong> anesthesiologyclerkship. Responses were collected from 1,009students from 2003 - 2009. A general inductive approachwas used to analyze students' written preconceptions.Preconceptions were coded with consensus by twoauthors for both theme and tone.Results: Five themes emerged: task responsibilities,patient interaction, lifestyle, reputation, and future <strong>of</strong> thefield. Task responsibilities were discussed mostfrequently(53%), <strong>of</strong>ten with negative tone(56%).Students felt "unclear" about the non-procedural taskresponsibilities <strong>of</strong> anesthesiologists. Patientinteraction(19%) was also perceived negatively(88%),with emphasis on lack <strong>of</strong> longitudinal relationships andlimited time spent with patients. Lifestyle-focusedpreconceptions(10%) were more positive(87%),centering on enviable hours and compensation. Higherlevels <strong>of</strong> substance abuse and difficulty interacting withsurgeons contributed to negative impressions(46%) <strong>of</strong>pr<strong>of</strong>essional reputation(16%). The future <strong>of</strong>anesthesiology(2%) was <strong>of</strong>ten viewed positively(60%),noted for job security and residency competitiveness.Discussion: Negative perceptions can adversely impactinterpr<strong>of</strong>essional respect, communication andcollaboration. Patient care and safety may suffer.Curricular interventions can facilitate more accurate,typically less critical perceptions <strong>of</strong> specialties.

<strong>UCSF</strong> Education Day <strong>2011</strong>standardized patient examination.Background: Risk behaviors tend to cluster andsmokers in particular are likely to engage in multiplerisks. Treating multiple risk behaviors improves patienthealth outcomes and reduces health care costs.Methods: Using a randomized experimental design,medical students’ counseling interactions wereevaluated with a standardized patient presenting withsexual health concerns and current tobacco use withvaried problematic drinking status (alcohol-positive oralcohol-negative). Participants were 156 third yearmedical students at the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>California</strong>, <strong>San</strong>Francisco. Checklists completed by standardizedpatients evaluated students’ clinical performance. Afterthe encounter, students completed surveys <strong>of</strong> theirknowledge and attitudes for treating smokers withalcohol problems.Results: Overall, most students assessed tobacco use(85%); fewer assessed alcohol use (54%). Relative tothe alcohol-negative case, students seeing the alcoholpositivecase were less likely to assess STD history(80% vs. 91%, χ2(1)=4.15, p=.042) or patients’readiness to quit smoking (41% vs. 60%, χ2(1)=5.01,p=.025) and endorsed greater attitudinal barriers totobacco treatment, F(1,155)=4.79, p=.030. Patientsatisfaction, expressed as willingness to continuemedical treatment with the student doctor, wassignificantly lower for the alcohol-positive than thealcohol-negative case, χ2(1)=5.18, p=.023. Clinicalperformance ratings moderated the relationship betweenpatient case version and patient satisfaction.Discussion: When presented with a case <strong>of</strong> multiplerisk behaviors (sexual health, tobacco and alcohol),medical students performed less effectively and receivedlower patient satisfaction ratings than with a caseinvolving fewer behavioral risks. Findings weremoderated by ratings <strong>of</strong> students’ overall clinicalperformance.Reflective critique: The findings support the need forparadigm shifts in medical education that emphasizeassessment <strong>of</strong> multiple risks, new models <strong>of</strong>conceptualizing behavior change as a generalizedprocess, and treatment <strong>of</strong> the whole patient foroptimizing health outcomes.Physical Examination Teaching: ASystematic Review <strong>of</strong> the LiteratureSomnath Mookherjee, MD, <strong>UCSF</strong>, Department <strong>of</strong><strong>Medicine</strong>, Division <strong>of</strong> Hospital <strong>Medicine</strong>,SMookherjee@medicine.ucsf.edu; Lara Pheatt, MA,<strong>UCSF</strong> <strong>School</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Medicine</strong>, Office <strong>of</strong> Medical Education,PheattL@medsch.ucsf.edu; Calvin L.

Recent reports have bemoaned theinadequacy <strong>of</strong> physicians' PE skills; however, mostschools teach a comprehensive PE without links topatient care. Therefore, PE education needsimprovement, but the most effective teaching methodsare unknown.Methods: We included all publications <strong>of</strong> PE teachingpublished from 1951-<strong>2011</strong> that studied the effects <strong>of</strong> acurricular intervention and reported on teaching efficacy.Data extracted included organ system targeted, studydesign, types <strong>of</strong> curricula, measurements <strong>of</strong> efficacy,and domains <strong>of</strong> PE learning (psychomotor skills,knowledge, communication, and “synthesis” <strong>of</strong> data intoclinical application).Results: Of 3665 papers retrieved, 121 met inclusioncriteria. The most represented organ systems werecardiovascular, musculoskeletal, gynecological, andgeneral (multiple organ systems or comprehensive PE).Sixty-six (55%) studies included control groups. Majorcategories <strong>of</strong> educational interventions includedsimulation with standardized patients (SPs), simulation<strong>of</strong> aspects <strong>of</strong> PE (such as recordings <strong>of</strong> heart sounds),bedside teaching, and peer examination or tutoring.Common assessment methods included checklists withobserved structured clinical examinations, written tests,and surveys <strong>of</strong> learner satisfaction and self-assessedcompetence. Psychomotor skills and knowledgeacquisition were the most common competenciestargeted; seventeen papers (14%) were judged to teachPE in the “synthesis” realm.Discussion: Despite heightened awareness <strong>of</strong> theimportance <strong>of</strong> PE skills in guiding patient care, we foundfew curricula that taught PE “synthesis.” Heterogeneity in<strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>California</strong>, <strong>San</strong> Francisco • <strong>School</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Medicine</strong> 37

Learners completeformal curricula and faculty-mentored projects in areasranging from the molecular to the global. Traditionally,assessment measured only course participation, projectquality, presentations, publications, and learnersatisfaction. Because the program aims to launchcareers in innovation, academia and leadership, ameans <strong>of</strong> charting steps along the continuum <strong>of</strong>pr<strong>of</strong>essional development was also required.Methods: We adapted the Dreyfus scale <strong>of</strong> skillacquisition from novice to expert to measure progress inthree competency areas, “Research and Scholarship,”Leadership and Advocacy,” and “Pr<strong>of</strong>essional IdentityDevelopment.” The scale was sent to 52 faculty mentorsand did not allow selection <strong>of</strong> expert.Results: 33/52 faculty mentors responded. For the threecompetency areas, 52%, 64%, and 67%, respectively,placed their mentees at pr<strong>of</strong>icient, the highest availablelevel, describing competency usually achieved at theassistant pr<strong>of</strong>essor stage.Discussion: The number <strong>of</strong> mentors selecting thehighest level <strong>of</strong> achievement greatly exceededexpectations. Program leaders anticipated that mostUME learners would move from novice or beginner tobeginner or competent. The failure to capture accuratedata on the stage <strong>of</strong> learners’ pr<strong>of</strong>essional developmentmay be due to the culture <strong>of</strong> grading.

However, medicalstudents are at risk for “deformation” as well. Asstudents progress through medical school, they gainpr<strong>of</strong>essional competence but may also be at risk forharm. Prior research has documented the development<strong>of</strong> depression and the loss <strong>of</strong> empathy during medicaltraining. Little research has examined students’ ownexperience <strong>of</strong> such changes.Methods: In 2007-08, Healer’s Art elective studentsinternationally submitted words that described a part <strong>of</strong>themselves that they were wary about showing oractually did not let show in school. These words wereanalyzed using qualitative and quantitative techniques.Results: Words from 673 medical students from 31medical schools were analyzed. Eleven themes wereidentified. The most common themes were Spirituality,Emotional Engagement, Identity/Self-expression,Freedom/Spontaneity, and Relationships. The mostcommon individual words used were “Creativity,”“Family,” “Balance,” “Freedom,” “Love,” and “Peace.”38 The Haile T. Debas Academy <strong>of</strong> Medical Educators

Weextracted eligible articles and rated impact on learnersand patients using Kirkpatrick’s hierarchy.Results: Of 2,758 initial citations, 106 met inclusioncriteria. 75 studies described interventions for medicalstudents, and 88 for residents/fellows. Most studiesoccurred in the US (94) at single institutions (91). Themajority (77) occurred in primary care disciplines:internal medicine (36), family medicine (30) andpediatrics (13). The most prevalent study design waspre-post comparison; only 22 studies used a randomizedcontrolled design.The most commonly addressedcurricular topic for counseling for behavior change wassmoking (65 studies) followed by nutrition (27),alcohol/drug use (26), and exercise (20). Theoreticalframeworks uncommonly justified curricularinterventions, although 28 studies used thetranstheoretical model <strong>of</strong> change. 58 studies involved 8or fewer hours <strong>of</strong> curricular time, and 48 spanned 4 orfewer weeks. Outcome measures related to learnerattitudes, knowledge or skills were common; only 8studies showed benefit to patients or organizationalpractice.Discussion: Multi-institutional research on methods <strong>of</strong>teaching trainees counseling for behavior change thatinfluence patients’ health outcomes are urgently neededto ensure trainees’ clinical competence and improvedpatient care.Reflective critique: We will present our manuscript draftat ESCape 3/1/11 for feedback.The Educational Value <strong>of</strong> OvernightCall Amid Resident Duty HoursRestrictionsOren K.

<strong>UCSF</strong> Education Day <strong>2011</strong>Methods: An anonymous, 5-item Web-based surveywas e-mailed to clinical faculty <strong>of</strong> a liver transplantrotation. Items solicited opinions about the educationalvalue <strong>of</strong> overnight call, adequacy <strong>of</strong> supervision and thevalue <strong>of</strong> a rotation without overnight call. Answer choiceswere yes/no or multiple choice and includedopportunities for comment. Analyses were descriptiveand qualitative.Results: 10/15 (67%) faculty completed the survey. Allrespondents answered that overnight call waseducationally important for the PGY-1 resident and allfelt that adequate supervision was available. In a rotationwithout overnight call, 90% <strong>of</strong> respondents answeredthat weekend coverage remained educationallyimportant but most felt this did not replace theeducational value <strong>of</strong> overnight call. Respondentsidentified the following competencies learned fromovernight call: development <strong>of</strong> independence,confidence, responsibility, decision-making, prioritizationand communication; cross-covering; and the opportunityto work-up new admissions.Discussion: Despite the scheduling difficulties imposedby new duty hours regulations, overnight call maintains aunique learning experience that should be preservedwhere possible in the training <strong>of</strong> PGY-1 residents.Reflective critique: Survey results were reported to theInternal <strong>Medicine</strong> Residency Program with a proposal tomaintain overnight call if possible, with weekend day asan educationally important, although qualitatively inferior,alternative.References:1.

Bautista, Christopher.Bautista@ucsf.edu;Louise Aronson, MD, aronsonl@medicine.ucsf.eduBackground: Roughly half <strong>of</strong> current physician visits inmany specialties are from patients >65 years old, andthe population aged >60 is expected to double by 2050.As states increasingly cut services keeping elderlypatients healthy and independent, healthcare providersmust be aware <strong>of</strong>, refer to, and lobby for these vitalgeriatric community resources.Methods: Following a literature review, internetsearches and interpr<strong>of</strong>essional expert focus groups, wedeveloped an algorithm and related guide detailingservices, eligibility, coverage and cost, provider role andlocal contacts. Validity was established through surveys<strong>of</strong> students, residents, faculty and local communityproviders as well as feedback from over 30interpr<strong>of</strong>essional national leaders in Geriatrics. Casebasedpre/post-tests with medical students and residentswere used to evaluate the educational utility <strong>of</strong> the toolsafter a brief introduction.Results: 58% (37/64) <strong>of</strong> survey respondents said thatthey were “somewhat likely” or “very likely” to use thesetools in their clinical practice and teaching. 63% (26/41)<strong>of</strong> learners “agreed” or “strongly agreed” that the toolsmade them more comfortable referring elderly patients tocommunity resources. 64% (9/14) <strong>of</strong> medical studentsand 90% (4/5) <strong>of</strong> residents who completed the pre/posttestscored higher after brief training with the tools.Discussion: The Geriatric Community ResourcesClinical Algorithm and Guide providers a validated andeducationally effective framework to help cliniciansappropriately refer elderly patients to vital communityservices. The tool alone does not help all trainees, some<strong>of</strong> whom may require a dedicated educational sessionon the purpose and uses <strong>of</strong> certain resources.Reflective critique: Presentations at ESCAPE,Geriatrics WIP and dissemination to local and nationalgeriatrics leaders for review led to additional resourcesand refined structure.Areas abstract covers: UME, GME, CME, IPHEDomain(s) addressed: Community <strong>Medicine</strong>,Evaluation <strong>of</strong> Programs and Curricula, Patient Care,Primary CarePurpose: To develop a tool that gives providers apractical conceptual framework for approaching themyriad resources necessary to keep elderly patientshealthy and independent in the community.40 The Haile T.

<strong>UCSF</strong> Education Day <strong>2011</strong>Workshop DescriptionsLeveraging Technology for EducationAmin Azzam, MD, MA; Ryan Brazell; Sean McClelland;Christian Burke; Renee Courey, PhD; Louise Aronson,MD, MFAIn this workshop, participants will learn how to produceonline, interactive, digitally-enhanced learning tools. Thisworkshop will showcase equipment and s<strong>of</strong>twareavailable to educators, and include presentations fromlibrary staff about best practices for creating enhancedlearning tools. Panelists will <strong>of</strong>fer tips for sharing onlinelearning tools with learners and for integrating thesetools into existing courses. Facilitators will demonstratethe process by modifying an existing static educationaltool (e.g., powerpoint lecture slides) into three differentlevels <strong>of</strong> enhancement: 1) web-based slides; 2) audionarration, and 3) an interactive learning module.Learning Objectives:1. Understand techniques for developing online,interactive, digitally-enhanced learning tools.2. Review resources available, including s<strong>of</strong>tware andequipment, available to educators at <strong>UCSF</strong> forproducing learning tools.3. Learn about best practices for sharing online learningtools with learners and opportunities for integratingonline learning into existing courses.Poster Presentations and PrizesLouise Aronson, MD, MFA; Patricia O'Sullivan, EdDIn this workshop, panelists will learn aboutcharacteristics <strong>of</strong> good and bad posters, and learn aboutprinciples <strong>of</strong> poster design to both evaluate and producehigh-quality posters. In an interactive exercise,participants will actively review a range <strong>of</strong> digital posters<strong>of</strong> varying quality using a rubric, with a discussion t<strong>of</strong>ollow about how ratings were established. A follow-updiscussion will focus on best practices in poster visualdesign and graphical presentation <strong>of</strong> information that willhelp participants create and recognize high-qualityposters that are worthy <strong>of</strong> awards when presented atmedical conferences.2. Learn how to better evaluate and review posters, andhow to provide constructive feedback to posterauthors.3. Describe how reviewers typically establish ratingswhen evaluating posters, and how rubrics and otherrating tools can assist the process <strong>of</strong> evaluatingposters.Scholarship <strong>of</strong> SimulationDiane B. Wayne, MD; <strong>San</strong>drijn van Schaik, MD; JodySteinauer, MDIn this workshop, experts will discuss the scholarship <strong>of</strong>simulation as an educational strategy. Panelists willdescribe their own experiences designing simulationresearch projects, and how these activities have affectedtheir own career development. Interactive exercises willhelp participants better understand best practicesassociated with simulation research. Panelists willinspire educators to use simulation for teaching and toimprove the quality and evaluation <strong>of</strong> simulation training.There will be ample opportunity to discuss educators’questions and practical aspects <strong>of</strong> designing simulationresearch.Learning Objectives:1. Describe best practices for incorporating simulationbasededucation into health pr<strong>of</strong>essions education.2. Define strategies for effective simulation-basededucational research.3. Review research gaps and unanswered questions insimulation-based education.Learning Objectives:1. List best practices in poster design in poster visualdesign and graphical presentation <strong>of</strong> information.<strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>California</strong>, <strong>San</strong> Francisco • <strong>School</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Medicine</strong> 41
