응급의학과 전공의 총조사 자료를 이용한 전공의의 교육 요구도 분석

Abstract

Objective: This study was conducted to identify the needs assessment for education and training of emergency medicine (EM) residents. Methods: The results of a national survey of EM residents of the Korean Society of Emergency Medicine in 2019 were used. Education was one of the five categories in the survey. The preferred learning methods and their perceived importance and ability to perform in nine competencies were assessed. The Borich’s needs assessment model was used to analyze their needs. Results: Among 591 EM residents, 382 responded, and 371 responses were finally analyzed. Regarding the learning methods, junior residents preferred in-hospital conferences, staff lectures, internet resources, and textbooks. Overall, medical knowledge and procedural skills were the most important, and research was less important to recognize. Medical knowledge showed the highest rank in the needs assessment in all years, and ethics and professionalism showed the lowest ranks. The needs for procedural skills were higher in junior years but lower in senior years. Conclusion: These results will form the basis for the design of training programs to meet the educational needs of EM residents for each grade. Furthermore, an analysis of the educational needs should be done periodically according to the changes and demands of the times.
