Assessment-oriented (AO) oral case presentations significantly reduced emergency medicine resident presentation times compared to traditional methods. This efficient communication model maintained effectiveness, allowing residents to convey essential information more quickly.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Emergency Medicine
  • Communication Studies

Background:

  • Effective interphysician communication is crucial in emergency medicine.
  • Traditional oral case presentations can be time-consuming.
  • Optimizing resident training in communication skills is an ongoing goal.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce and evaluate the time efficiency and effectiveness of assessment-oriented (AO) oral case presentations.
  • To assess AO oral case presentations as a model for interphysician communication in emergency medicine.

Main Methods:

  • A prospective, interventional study involving 10 faculty and 36 residents in an emergency medicine program.
  • Residents presented cases using either traditional or AO formats.
  • Presentations were timed, and effectiveness was rated on data content, decision-making, organization, and satisfaction.

Main Results:

  • 199 presentations were analyzed (112 traditional, 87 AO).
  • AO presentations were significantly shorter (71 seconds) than traditional ones (117 seconds) (p < 0.001).
  • No significant differences in effectiveness measures were observed between the two formats.

Conclusions:

  • Assessment-oriented oral case presentations offer a time-saving method for emergency medicine residents.
  • AO presentations facilitate efficient and effective communication, enabling residents to convey information concisely.
