    This innovative medical education technique uses role-playing to enhance clinical problem-solving skills. Students gain experience with patient interaction and psychosocial issues beyond textbook learning.

    Area of Science:

    • Medical Education
    • Clinical Skills Training
    • Healthcare Simulation

    Background:

    • Traditional case presentations may not fully capture the complexity of clinical practice.
    • There is a need for interactive teaching methods that integrate medical and psychosocial aspects.
    • Medical students require opportunities to practice patient interaction and teamwork.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe an alternative teaching technique for small group medical education.
    • To highlight the benefits of a role-playing method for students and instructors.
    • To emphasize the holistic approach to patient care beyond diagnosis.

    Main Methods:

    • Instructor assumes multiple roles (patient, intern, lab technician).
    • Students act as physicians, managing a simulated clinical case.

  • Involves live interaction with simulated patient and healthcare team members.

    • Main Results:

    • Students engage with combined medical and psychosocial problems.
    • Enhanced opportunity for students to practice patient interaction and communication.
    • Facilitates observation of student problem-solving and thought processes.

    Conclusions:

    • This role-playing technique offers a dynamic alternative to standard case presentations.
    • It provides a comprehensive learning experience, integrating diagnosis with patient management.
    • The method allows instructors to assess clinical reasoning and teamwork in a realistic setting.
