Abstract Background Pediatric emergency medicine training is in its infancy in India. Simulation provides an educational avenue to equip trainees with the skills to improve pediatric care. We hypothesized that a simulation-based curriculum can improve Indian post-graduate emergency medicine (EM) trainees’ self-efficacy, knowledge, and skills in pediatric care. Methods We designed a simulation-based curriculum for management of common pediatric emergencies including sepsis, trauma, and respiratory illness and pediatric-specific procedures including vascular access and airway skills. Training included didactics, procedural skill stations, and simulation. Measures included a self-efficacy survey, knowledge test, skills checklist, and follow-up survey. Results were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test and paired-samples t test. A 6-month follow-up survey was done to evaluate lasting effects of the intervention. Results Seventy residents from four academic hospitals in India participated. Trainees reported feeling significantly more confident, after training, in performing procedures, and managing pediatric emergencies (p < 0.001). After the simulation-based curriculum, trainees demonstrated an increase in medical knowledge of 19% (p < 0.01) and improvement in procedural skills from baseline to mastery of 18%, 20%, 16%, and 19% for intubation, bag-valve mask ventilation, intravenous access, and intraosseous access respectively (p < 0.01). At 6-month follow-up, self-efficacy in procedural skills and management of pediatric emergencies improved from baseline. Conclusions A simulation-based curriculum is an effective and sustainable way to improve Indian post-graduate EM trainees’ self-efficacy, knowledge, and skills in pediatric emergency care.

AbstractBackground:Given the urgent nature of ENT emergencies, appropriate knowledge is required amongst front-line staff. Junior doctors account for almost one quarter of emergency department doctors. It has been shown that undergraduate coverage of ENT is variable. This study therefore aimed to determine whether emergency department junior doctors were confident in dealing with ENT emergencies, with special focus on the airway.Method:An online survey was circulated to junior doctors working in emergency medicine, at the discretion of their training co-ordinators.Results:A total of 104 responses were received. Junior doctors were not confident in managing patients who have undergone tracheostomy or laryngectomy. Management of stridor varied, with 51 per cent giving oxygen and only 77 per cent referring such patients as an emergency to ENT. Most training on the management of airway emergencies was not provided through hospital induction.Conclusion:Training should be provided to junior doctors starting work in the emergency department. We suggest mandatory multidisciplinary induction training for such staff.

During a 1-year hospital-based residency, dental residents are required to rotate through many departments including surgery, medicine, and emergency medicine. It became apparent that there was a gap between clinical skills knowledge taught in dental school curriculum and skills required for hospital-based patient care. In response, a simulation-based intensive clinical skill “boot camp” was created. The boot camp provided an intensive, interactive 3-day session for the dental residents. During the 3 days, residents were introduced to medical knowledge and skills that were necessary for their inpatient hospital rotations but were lacking in traditional dental school curriculum. Effectiveness of the boot camp was assessed in terms of knowledge base and comfort through presession and postsession surveys. According to resident feedback, this intensive introduction for the dental residents improved their readiness for their inpatient hospital-based residency.

one of the obstacles in improving the quality of education and learning in schools is the lack of improvement on the quality of teachers. In addition, the limited funds, facilities and infrastructure, is also a cause of the decline in the quality of education. Research Findings Yusmelmeri, S, Pd. Master of Arts Studies at SMPN 4 Bukittinggi (2015/2016) entitled: "The Implementation of Art Learning at SMPN 4 Bukittinggi" proves that the low ability of art teachers in skills / craft learning materials. The conclusion of the study stated that of the five schools in Bukittinggi city that were used as research objects, only one school runs / teaches skill material. Concerns about teachers' inadequacies in this skill learning process require teachers to attend education and training / workshops. Teachers who will be trained are teachers of SMP Arts Culture in Bukittinggi City as many as 10-15 people. The main priorities given to teachers of SMP Cultural Arts who are expected after this training will be: 1) insight and knowledge of weaving images based on competency standards in grade VIII SMP, 2) creating at least one pictorial woven work based on techniques and steps has been studied, and 3) implements it in skills learning in the classes. After the training, the results obtained: teachers SMP Arts Culture city of Bukittinggi: 1) already have insight and knowledge about weaving pictorial based on competency standards in class VIII junior high school, 2) has produced a work of pictorial weaving based on techniques and steps that have been studied . Thus it can be concluded that generally teachers in SMPN Bukittinggi have knowledge of both theory and practice of pictorial weaving. Therefore, it is necessary to have the contini- cy in applying the knowledge and skills acquired by the teachers. If this activity is not done continuously, then the knowledge and skills that have been obtained will be meaningless

The student involvement of class X.4 of SMAN 2 Dumai in the learning mathematics is very low. Students rarely want to be involved and actively participate in efforts to develop their knowledge and skills. Learning activities are still centered on the teacher (teacher’s centered) because the teacher is still dominant using the lecture method so that the teacher is more active than the student which causes the learning process to become rigid, less support the development of students' attitudes, knowledge, and skills. The low students’mathematics learning activities are also caused by the low level of student understanding of the subject matter concept. Therefore, this study aims to improve students' mathematics learning activities through the implementation of Cooperative Learning type Team Games Tournament (TGT). This study was a classroom action research consisting of two cycles. Data collection is done by filling out the observation sheets conducted by peers during the learning process. Based on the results of data analysis it can be concluded that the students’ mathematics learning activities in class X.4 of SMAN 2 Dumai have increased from an average of 76.46% (good) in the first cycle to 94.14% (very good) in the second cycle.

BACKGROUND: Point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) is the core competency in the Emergency Medicine (EM) residency training. However, there are many methods that can be used to evaluate this competency, and the best practices for teaching ultrasonography to residents have yet to be determined. AIM: The researchers aimed at evaluating the POCUS knowledge and skills of the EM residents after having participated in the POCUS training during their first ultrasound rotation in the Emergency Department. METHODS: A curriculum was developed in the form of a 2-week rotation in the EM residency program at the Department of EM at Khon Kaen University’s Srinagarind Hospital. It consisted of didactic lectures, bedside ultrasound trainings, the journal club, and the process of reviewing the images. Tools were developed, which included a knowledge exam. For each resident, the assessments were administered before and after the rotation. Furthermore, an ultrasound skills test was developed to be used at the end of the 1st year EM residency program. RESULTS: Nine EM residents completed their rotations and the tests. The average pre-training score and post-training scores were 5.25 ± 1.03 and 8.50 ± 1.20, respectively. The mean difference score between pre- and post-test was 3.25 ± 1.28. (95% CI −4.321, −2.178). In terms of the ultrasound skills test, the average total score was 26.13 out of 30 (87.1%). Moreover, the residents had higher scores in the aspects of image acquisition (87.5%) and image interpretation (87.5%). However, for the aspect of clinical decision-making, the average score was 75%. The survey questions indicated that with respect to all of the academic activities, the “Bedside ultrasound,” which had encouraged the residents to learn POCUS, was given the highest score (4.75 of 5). CONCLUSIONS: The 2-week ED ultrasound rotation had improved the residents’ EM ultrasound knowledge and skills.
