Summary
Completion of simulation-based mastery learning in flexible bronchoscopy is influenced by clinical relevance and protected time. Male trainees showed higher completion rates, suggesting a need for adapted instructional design.
Area of Science:
- Medical Education
- Simulation-Based Training
- Respiratory Medicine
Background:
- Mastery learning in simulation-based courses offers benefits.
- However, trainee completion rates for these courses can be suboptimal.
Purpose of the Study:
- To identify key factors influencing the completion of a simulation-based mastery learning course.
- Focus on flexible bronchoscopy training with distributive practice.
Main Methods:
- A survey was distributed to 77 trainees enrolled in the flexible bronchoscopy course.
- Data was collected from 62 (81%) respondents regarding course completion factors.
Main Results:
- Male trainees demonstrated a higher likelihood of course completion.
- Clinical relevance was the primary factor for completion.
- "Too busy" was the most cited reason for non-completion.
Conclusions:
- Several factors impact the completion of simulation-based mastery learning courses.
- Ensuring clinical relevance and providing protected training time are crucial for success.
- Instructional design may need systematic adaptation to accommodate gender differences and ensure competency attainment.

622
Endoscopy is a non-surgical medical technique used to examine a person's internal organs and vessels. This lesson will focus on two types of endoscopic studies: bronchoscopy and thoracoscopy.
Bronchoscopy
Description
Bronchoscopy is a procedure that involves direct visualization of the larynx, trachea, and bronchi for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. A flexible fiber optic or rigid bronchoscope is used to carry out the procedure. The fiber-optic bronchoscope is more frequently used due...

01:23Design Example: Deciding Thickness of Lubricating Fluid in a Shaft
340
Effective lubrication between a rotating shaft and its bearing housing is essential in rotating machinery to minimize friction, wear, and energy loss. With carefully controlled thickness and viscosity, the lubricant layer prevents metal-to-metal contact, ensuring smooth operation.
To calculate the required thickness of the lubricant layer, the tangential velocity at the shaft's surface must first be determined. This velocity is calculated by converting the rotational speed to angular velocity...

02:16Transcription Factors
82.7K
Tissue-specific transcription factors contribute to diverse cellular functions in mammals. For example, the gene for beta globin, a major component of hemoglobin, is present in all cells of the body. However, it is only expressed in red blood cells because the transcription factors that can bind to the promoter sequences of the beta globin gene are only expressed in these cells. Tissue-specific transcription factors also ensure that mutations in these factors may impair only the function of...

01:10Factors Affecting α-Alkylation of Ketones: Choice of Base
3.6K
α-Alkylation of ketones is achieved in the presence of alkyl halides and a base. The reaction proceeds via the formation of an enolate ion followed by nucleophilic substitution. The choice of base employed is essential as it is the key factor in determining the reaction outcome.
The reaction involving bases like EtO− whose conjugate acid EtOH (pKa = 15.9) is stronger than the ketone (pKa = 19.2) results in an equilibrium mixture with higher ketone concentration. As a consequence,...

04:01Factors Affecting Solubility
37.1K
Compared with pure water, the solubility of an ionic compound is less in aqueous solutions containing a common ion (one also produced by dissolution of the ionic compound). This is an example of a phenomenon known as the common ion effect, which is a consequence of the law of mass action that may be explained using Le Chȃtelier’s principle. Consider the dissolution of silver iodide:

01:14Avoidance Learning and Learned Helplessness
2.6K
Avoidance learning and learned helplessness are critical concepts in understanding behavioral responses to negative stimuli.
Avoidance learning occurs when an organism learns that a specific behavior can prevent an unpleasant outcome. For example, a student who receives a bad grade may start studying harder to avoid future poor grades. This behavior persists even when the negative outcome is no longer present. Avoidance learning is powerful because it maintains behavior in the absence of the...
