Medical Education Research Center
Lesson Plan• After this session you should :
– Define Clinical Skills and Clinical Procedures– Nominate Four goal of any skill training
exercise– Rethink about the way acquiring a procedural
skill– Describe different teaching methods for
procedural skills– Discuss pros and cons of different teaching
methods
Clinical Skills• clinical procedures • collaboration/ communication with
professionals• communication with patients and/or families• health promotion and risk assessment• legal, ethical, and value concerns• maintaining currency within the discipline• management and diagnosis• management of specific conditions• organ systems examinations
• A procedure is defined as a skill that involved physical interaction with patients that was either invasive or required the use of tools or equipment.
• Example– suturing – spinal tap – circumcision
• Skills training must be – systematic – carefully planned – fully evaluated
Four goal of any skill training exercise
• Acquisition: effective performance in appropriate circumstances.
• Competency: the skilled behavior will be performed to a predetermined level
• Retention: the skilled activity will be retained over time.
• Transfer: the training time directed to one skill will enhance the future the acquisition or application of new skills
teaching procedural skills methods
• Teaching methods can be divided to two categories: – Traditional
• giving lecture • see one, do one, teach one
– Non-traditional
" see one, do one, teach one "
• the most common method of teaching procedural skills in medical school and residency settings
Some critiques about the strategy• This method may threaten patient safety • Some articles has suggested some modifications
– "read about one, go to a course on one, do fifteen simulated ones, be evaluated about one, have some clinical experience about one, then teach one and expect ongoing evaluation"
– “see one, do one, teach one, have one"• Shortage of enough opportunity for students to do
procedures• Physicians are often unwilling to provide training • Some procedures are so rare in clinical practice for
trainees to "see one, do one" let alone teach.• Training based on a systematic methodology is
preferred to the traditional "see one, do one, teach one" approach
• Skills require more than performing tasks. • They include:
– Knowledge (indications, contraindications, complications and their prevention)
– Skill (preparation, technique, dexterity)– Communication (consent, comfort and dignity
of patients; realising when to get help).
Five step to design• This model, which is applicable to any
procedural skill to be acquired in a medical context, can be summarized as having five steps:
• 1. Establishing the need• 2. Task analysis• 3. Developing objectives• 4. Instructional design and implementation of
skill training• 5. Program evaluation
Review performance objective
1-Plan aheadAssess learners need
Assure that the learner has prepared (e.g.; through lecture, discussion, visualization, CDs, books
Make explicit commentary during the demonstration 2- Demonstrate the procedure
Allow for questions or interruptions
Ask the learner to verbalize what s/he is doing 3-observe the learner in action and allow for practiceEncourage self –assessment and reflection
Be specific and descriptive 4-Provide feedback
Ensure feedback is non-judgemental and performance -based
Perceived level of skills5-Encourage learners' self assessment of
Perceived areas requiring improvement
Ensure varying degree of complexity 6-Allow for practice under less than ideal conditions
The unprepared learner
7- Prepare to modify approach for Different learning sites
"opportunistic" learning and teaching
Seven principle for Teaching Procedural and Technical Skills
A four-step approach to teaching skills
• Demonstration. Trainer demonstrates at normal speed, without commentary.
• Deconstruction. Trainer demonstrates while describing steps.
• Comprehension. Trainer demonstrates while learner describes steps.
• Performance. Learner demonstrates while learner describes steps.
Session structure
• Setting– Have you made assumptions about the
learners’ basic knowledge • (“You know that, don’t you?”).
– Consider their orientation: • are they sitting beside you or opposite (mirror
image)? • Are they left- or right-handed? can they see?
• Dialogue.– Have you broken the procedure into clear steps?– Is the task too large to learn at one sitting? – Are you giving positive feedback (what they did well,
what they could improve)? – Have you corrected mistakes? Avoid talking too much
— either giving too much detail (trying to cover too much in one sitting) or chatting about something else (worried they are bored).
• Closure. – Can they do it? – Do you need to explain how the procedure
may differ under different circumstances?
Application in practice• Step 1 should be demonstrated with a real
patient. It is important to allow the learner to identify with a competent performance.
• Steps 2 and 3 can be done theoretically or with the equipment, away from the patient.
• Steps 1 and 2 can be repeated in a larger group (eg, with a video), then steps 3 and 4 can be done in small groups.
• Steps should be done in more than one sitting.
Consider the way you currently teach a skill and think about what the four-step approach
may add
• The trainee has shifted from being “consciously incompetent” to being “consciously competent”
• Only with repeated practice will he or she be able to perform satisfactorily in a variety of situations.
Take-home message
• Teaching a skill involves knowledge – Indications– Contraindications– complications and prevention) – skill (dexterity, performance) – communication (consent, dignity, realizing when to get
help)– interpret the results of diagnostic procedures
• When teaching a skill, consider using or adapting a four-step approach.
• Consider the structure of your teaching session:– set (prior learning, orientation) – dialogue (manageable steps) – Closure (application to other settings).
• Facilities for teaching clinical Skills– Simulated patients– Videos– Manikins– Computers– virtual reality – lectures – slides– demonstrations– supervised hands‑on – practice on manikins – classmate volunteers
Benefit of Teaching with facilities
• Learning skills occurs– in a safe environment– receive feedback– reach a certain level of competence
• before they use the skills on patients.
