Summary
Researchers identified nine foundational education research methods articles for graduate medical educators. This curated list provides essential resources for designing and conducting effective education research.
Area of Science:
- Medical Education
- Research Methodology
- Academic Development
Background:
- Graduate medical educators require foundational knowledge in education research methods.
- A need exists for curated, high-impact articles on research principles in medical education.
Purpose of the Study:
- To identify the most useful foundational articles on education research methods for medical educators.
- To provide a consensus-based list of essential resources for medical education research.
Main Methods:
- A comprehensive literature search of Ovid MEDLINE was conducted.
- A modified Delphi study with 10 expert participants was employed to achieve consensus.
- Articles were selected based on relevance, publication date (post-2000), language, and abstract availability.
Main Results:
- An initial search identified 25 relevant articles.
- A modified Delphi process resulted in the selection of 9 foundational articles.
- These 9 articles were deemed most useful by an expert panel for graduate medical educators.
Conclusions:
- Nine foundational education research methods articles were identified as highly useful for graduate medical educators.
- This selection serves as a valuable starting point for educators seeking to conduct research in medical education.

The Scientific Method
57.2K
Research is what makes the difference between facts and opinions. Facts are observable realities, and opinions are personal judgments, conclusions, or attitudes that may or may not be accurate. In the scientific community, facts can be established only using evidence collected through empirical research.

Methods Of Healthcare Delivery System

At the different levels of the healthcare system, we see varying methods of healthcare used. These methods include managed care systems, case management, and primary healthcare.
Managed Care System:
The managed care system is designed to control the cost while maintaining the quality of care. The patient's care from admission to discharge is planned by the primary care provider or the case manager, also known as the gatekeeper. In a managed care system, the number of care providers is...

Problem-intervention-evaluation (PIE) is a systematic approach to documentation used in healthcare settings for clinical decision-making and patient care planning. It is a structured approach to organizing patient data based on problems, interventions, and evaluations. Here's a breakdown of its key features and considerations:

Methods of Documentation V: CBE
1.4K
Charting by Exception, or CBE, is a method of documentation used in healthcare, particularly in nursing, that focuses on documenting only significant or abnormal findings rather than recording every detail. This approach aims to streamline the documentation process, improve efficiency, and ensure that healthcare providers can quickly identify deviations from normalcy in patient assessments.
In CBE, healthcare professionals establish predefined standards of practice that define what constitutes...

Methods of Documentation VII: EMR
1.6K
Electronic Medical Records (EMRs) primarily center around electronically documenting patients' health information within a single healthcare organization or practice. They contain essential clinical data related to a patient's medical history, diagnoses, medications, treatment plans, lab results, and other pertinent information relevant to the specific encounter or episode of care. EMRs are designed to streamline documentation and workflow processes within individual healthcare...

Study Designs in Epidemiology
1.7K
Epidemiological study designs are fundamental tools for investigating the distribution, determinants, and control of health conditions in populations. They help researchers understand the relationships between exposures and outcomes, and they broadly fall into two categories: "observational" and "experimental" studies.
Observational studies are those where the researcher does not intervene but rather observes natural variations. They include cross-sectional, cohort, and...
