Critical Appraisal Skills

A journal club is educational event where individuals meet regularly to critically evaluate recent articles in the scientific literature, generally any branch of science. Every participant of a journal club can take part in the debate and discussion. Journal clubs help people to learn and improve their critical appraisal skills and the ability to apply new knowledge [Esisi M., 2007; Swift G., 2004; Milbrandt E.B., Vincent J.L., 2004].  Journal clubs have often been cited as a bridge between research and practice [Kleinpell R.M., 2002]. Participants often differ widely in experience, knowledge and skills. An important role in this event plays a leader or chairman of a journal club [Esisi M., 2007]. One of these leaders in the field of neurology is the Head of the Department of Neurology and Reflexology, Shupyk National Medical Academy of Postgraduate Education, Prof. Natalia Svyrydova, who organized the first neurological journal club in Ukraine, which took place in the department of Neurology and Reflexology on June 30, 2016. Several modern European and American neurological articles were presented at the journal club. We present three articles related to cerebrovascular diseases: Fisher S. Primer on Diagnoses and Treatment of Symptomatic Neurogenic Orthostatic Hypotension. East European Journal of Parkinson’s Disease and Movement Disorders. 2015;1(1):45-53. Jolink WM, Klijn CJ, Brouwers PJ et al. Time trends in incidence, case fatality, and mortality of intracerebral hemorrhage. Neurology. 2015;85(15):1318-1324. Shah RS, Cole JW. Smoking and stroke: the more you smoke the more you stroke. Expert review of cardiovascular therapy. 2010;8(7);917-932. The journal club aroused great interest among practicing neurologists and staff of the Department of Neurology and Reflexology. Considering the popularity of the journal club, it was decided to hold this event on a regular basis.

Biomechanics courses often attract students from diverse academic backgrounds including a mix of engineers and scientists. A Journal Club, in which students read and discuss articles from scientific literature, is a collaborative learning activity that is accessible to students from these diverse scientific backgrounds. Journal Clubs originated as way to cost-share periodicals [1] and have evolved as educational tools. Journal Clubs in medical education [2–4] are cited for both increasing medical knowledge in 88% of medical residents [2] and bridging the gap between research and clinical practice. [1] In an extensive literature review, 80% of 101 studies reported that Journal Club discussions improved knowledge and critical appraisal skills. [5] Journal Club format is flexible and no strong preference in method has emerged in the literature. [2] The present work describes a structured Journal Club that has been implemented in a biomechanics course for three years and presents results from student surveys.

Working Out

A journal club is a scholastic conference in which a group of persons discuss issued articles, providing an opportunity for a shared effort to keep up with the current writings. The emphasis of journal clubs has supposedly shifted over the years. What was once a setting in which the world's recent literature was analyzed became a setting for talking over clinical issues raised by the writings and, most recently, a setup for learning critical reading abilities to physicians or other associated authorities. Nevertheless, so far there is no generally accepted definition of journal club, even though this academic method has been around for more than a century and has evolved basically during this period. In the present paper, conceptual and applied features of journal club, especially in developing countries, is surveyed, to discuss an apparent underrating of journal club in some medical departments, which could be due to misunderstanding of new philosophies, or to talk about the necessity of modification of an academic misconduct, which could be attributable to didactic unawareness.

The Impact

Abstract BackgroundAllied Health Professionals (AHPs) commonly use journal clubs (JCs) to support Evidence-Based Practice (EBP). There is however little research regarding implementing JCs in the long term, and their impact on EBP use and skills in AHPs. This study investigated the impact of implementing a structured JC format, called “TREAT” that was specifically tailored for each club, on EBP skills, confidence, use and resultant changes in clinical practice over 16 sessions for AHPs in a public health service. The study also investigated AHP’s attendance, adherence, satisfaction and barriers and enablers to implementing the format.MethodsA mixed methods hybrid-effectiveness implementation design was employed, guided by the Knowledge-to-Action cycle. EBP skills, confidence, use, and attitudes were assessed (Adapted Fresno Test, EBPQ, tailored journal club culture questionnaire) at baseline, and after 10 and 16-monthly JC sessions. Satisfaction and impact on clinical practice were explored using questionnaires at the latter two time-points, with free-form responses identifying enablers and barriers to EBP culture and implementation. Data on attendance and adherence to the TREAT format were also collected. ResultsSix JCs comprising a total of 132 unique participants from seven Allied Health professions were assessed across three time points. EBP skills significantly improved on the Adapted Fresno Test after 10-monthly (6.6 points: 95% CI, 0.43 to 12.7) and 16-monthly sessions (7.8 points, 95% CI, 0.85 to 14.7), and on self-reported total EBPQ ratings of confidence at 10-months (4.9 points: 95% CI, 2.2 to 7.5) and 16-months (5.7 points: 95% CI 2.7 to 8.7). Across sessions, 88 AHPs reported adopting new treatments/resources and 64 AHPs reported updating clinical procedures. Mean attendance was 5.7 sessions (SD= 3.8), and average adherence to TREAT components each session was 86% (95% CI, 83 to 89). Most participants recommended the format and reported desire to continue TREAT JCs. Enablers to the JC included using clinically relevant topics and active participation, while reported barriers included limited time to prepare. ConclusionsTREAT JCs can be implemented and sustained by AHPs for 16 monthly-sessions. Participation improved EBP skills and confidence and led to changes in clinical practice. Contextual enablers and barriers should be considered when implementing locally.

The World

Journal club is a long-standing pedagogy within clinical practice and education. While journal clubs throughout the world traditionally follow an established format, new approaches have emerged in recent times, including learner-centred and digital approaches. Key factors to journal club success include an awareness of the learning goals of the target audience, judicious article selection and emphasis on promoting the engagement of participant learners. This article reviews the role that journal club plays in modern clinical education and considers how to optimise its benefit for contemporary learners.
