    Area of Science:

    • Medical Education
    • Obstetrics and Gynecology
    • Health Professions Education

    Background:

    • Multisite clerkships require robust quality monitoring.
    • Longitudinal data analysis can identify trends in educational programs.
    • Evaluating student performance and perceptions is crucial for medical training.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To assess trends in student performance, experience, and perceptions over five years in a multisite obstetrics and gynecology clerkship.
    • To demonstrate the utility of trend analysis and graphic presentations for monitoring clerkship quality.

    Main Methods:

    • Collected and analyzed five years of data from eight geographically dispersed obstetrics and gynecology clerkship sites.
    • Utilized trend analysis and graphic-oriented presentations to evaluate student performance (written/oral exams, participation in deliveries) and perceptions (teaching quality).

    Main Results:

    • Significant changes were observed in final written and oral examination scores over the five-year period.
    • Trends were identified in student participation in deliveries and their ratings of teaching quality.
    • Data analysis results were communicated to site faculty to guide improvements.

    Conclusions:

    • Longitudinal evaluation using trend analysis is effective for monitoring and improving multisite medical clerkships.
    • Identifying temporal changes in student outcomes and experiences allows for data-driven educational enhancements.
    • This approach supports continuous quality improvement in obstetrics and gynecology medical education.
