Development of an ENT undergraduate curriculum using a Delphi survey
Objective:
To determine an ENT undergraduate syllabus.
Design:
Two round Delphi survey.
Setting:
Email questionnaire.
Participants:
Stakeholders with a vested interest in ENT undergraduate education.
Main Outcomes Measured:
Mode and median scores for 232 learning outcomes.
Results:
The individual learning objectives that scored most highly were related to history taking and examination, red flag symptoms, common ENT conditions including all forms of otitis, acute and chronic rhinosinusitis, thyroid disease, pharyngeal infection and airway compromise and formulation of differential diagnoses.
Conclusions:
Using a Delphi technique, a structured, evidence-based curriculum has been developed. This should assist those medical schools who do not currently have ENT in their curriculum but wish to reinstate it to produce a high quality teaching programme. It may also assist those medical schools who do have ENT in their curriculum to continue to develop their curriculum.
