Patient-centered Care01:13

Patient-centered Care

2.4K
Patient-centered care involves delivering care beyond inpatient hospitalization. Reflective practice can enhance a patient-centered approach. Reflective practice is a process of reasoning that considers all aspects of the present situation, including practicalities, learning from personal practice, and consideration of patient needs. Patients appreciate care decisions made while considering their input. Involving the patient in their care provides the patient with a sense of contribution rather...

Reason and Intuition01:37

Reason and Intuition

6.9K
The human brain processes information for decision-making using one of two routes: an intuitive system and a rational system (Epstein, 1994; popularized by Kahneman, 2011 as System 1 and System 2, respectively). The intuitive system is quick, impulsive, and operates with minimal effort, relying on emotions or habits to provide cues for what to do next, while the rational system is logical, analytical, deliberate, and methodical. Research in neuropsychology suggests that the...

Critical thinking helps decision-making and allows nurses to recognize barriers to success and find solutions to possible issues. It helps to brainstorm and implement ideas to achieve goals. Critical thinking helps acknowledge and state workflow inefficiencies while improving management techniques. Nurses understand the value of critical thinking and look for fellow nurses with critical thinking skills to upgrade their professional standards. Critical thinking can advance a nurse's career...

Role of Communication in the Nursing Process I: Assessment and Diagnosis

4.5K
The nursing process uses scientific reasoning, problem-solving, and critical thinking to guide nurses in providing patients with appropriate care. This process is a systematic approach to recognize, avoid, and treat current or potential health issues while promoting the patient's well-being.
The nursing process considers the patient's emotional and physical well-being. The process can be repeated or stopped at any point if judged essential. Assessment is the first step in the nursing...

Qualitative Analysis01:10

Qualitative Analysis

705
Qualitative analysis is the process of identifying elements, ions, or compounds in an unknown sample. It is the first and most fundamental type of analysis based on the hierarchy of analytical goals. This hierarchy is significant as it provides a structured approach to scientific research, with qualitative analysis serving as the initial step, providing essential information before moving on to quantitative or other forms of analysis.
There are two main approaches to qualitative analysis:...

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Physician Assistant Studies
  • Clinical Reasoning Assessment

Background:

  • Standardized assessment of clinical reasoning (CR) is crucial for preclinical physician assistant (PA) students.
  • Evaluating the reliability and consistency of grading methods is essential for educational quality.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To outline a standardized CR assessment process for PA students.
  • To compare student grades determined by a checklist and global rating scale (GRS) with faculty panel judgments.
  • To assess interrater reliability between individual faculty and faculty panel grading.

Main Methods:

  • A checklist was developed by faculty to evaluate CR in PA students during standardized patient assessments.
  • Student performance was graded by individual faculty members and a faculty panel.
  • Cohen's kappa was used to measure interrater reliability.

Main Results:

  • The study involved 88 PA students and 12 faculty evaluators.
  • The faculty panel adjusted 12.5% of grades assigned by individual faculty.
  • Substantial agreement was found between individual faculty grades and faculty panel grades (Cohen's kappa = 0.698).

Conclusions:

  • Comparing checklist, GRS, and panel review enhances assessment standardization.
  • This comprehensive assessment process effectively reduces grade inflation in PA programs.
