Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Communication Skills Training
  • Patient Outcomes

Background:

  • Effective communication is crucial for patient care.
  • The working alliance between patients and residents impacts treatment adherence and satisfaction.
  • Existing training programs for residents' communication skills require further evaluation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the effectiveness of a training program on medical residents' working alliance communication skills.
  • To determine if resident training in communication skills leads to improved patient adherence and satisfaction.
  • To evaluate the impact of enhanced communication on patient-reported outcomes.

Main Methods:

  • Experimental design with 104 residents randomly assigned to training or control groups.
  • Post-test assessment of residents' working alliance communication skills.
  • Survey of 68 patients (blinded to resident training status) on adherence and satisfaction.

Main Results:

  • Residents in the training group reported significantly higher working alliance skills.
  • Patients treated by trained residents reported better adherence to treatment.
  • Patients of trained residents reported higher satisfaction with their care.

Conclusions:

  • The communication skills training program effectively enhanced residents' working alliance.
  • Improved resident communication skills are associated with better patient adherence and satisfaction.
  • Further research is recommended to explore these findings and their implications for medical training.
