1. IPE = Team-based learning “The need for persons trained in related health fields to work as members of the team under the leadership and coordination of the physician” The Coggeshall Report, AAMC Simulation = Practice-based learning ‘Practice makes perfect’ “ No excuse today for the surgeon to learn on the patient ” William J Mayo, Competencies = Outcome-based learning “If you don't know where you are going, you might wind up someplace else” Y Berra 4.

IPE: “ Students from two or more professions learn[ing] about, from, with each other” (WHO 2010, IPEC report 20110) A New LCME accreditation requirement (lcme.org) AAMC survey : ‘At Least Some’ IPE experience 71.1% ( Analysis in Brief AAMC Oct 2014 ) % ALL % of those with IPE Nursing Pharmacy Physician Assistants Social Work Physical Therapists Occ.

Simulation... a technique—not a technology –Evokes/replicates substantial aspects of the real world in a fully interactive manner.” (D Gaba, Qual and Safety in Healthcare 2004 ) Learning: –From mistakes, safe to make mistakes –‘Deliberate’ practice, ‘til you get it right’ Technology enhanced simulation: improved outcomes compared to no intervention (Cooke, JAMA 2011) –Across a range of health professions, clinical topics, and outcomes –Large effect on clinician behavior –Moderate effects on patient care Conclusion BE-ME (best evidence medical education) supports simulation for active learning The 10 Year Snap Shot of Med Ed Simulation as a Driver of Educational Innovation US Medical School Curriculum Design and Transformation: Past, Present & Future MPPugnaire MD
Competency: Observable personal ability or quality Allows outcomes-based, time-variable assessment In place across the continuum: UME, GME, CPD Competency based Medical Education limitations: Applicability to real world practice Attributes, not activities Specificity to specialties (Carraccio J Grad Med Ed 2010) The 10 Year Snap Shot of Med Ed Competencies as a Driver of Educational Innovation US Medical School Curriculum Design and Transformation: Past, Present & Future MPPugnaire MD

Introduction of Entrustable Professional Activities: EPA’s –“Routine professional activities of physicians in their specialty” –A bridge to professional practice: GME to CPD –Entrustable: “unsupervised” practice: trusted to perform independently –Mappable to multiple competencies Core EPA’s for Entry into Residency: CEPAER’s (AAMC 2014) –A bridge from UME to GME –What PGY1’s should do, day 1 of residency without direct supervision, regardless of specialty. The 10 Year Snap Shot of Med Ed EPA’s as a Driver of Educational Innovation September 2015 US Medical School Curriculum Design and Transformation: Past, Present & Future MPPugnaire MD
Core EPAs for Entering Residency 1) Gather a history and perform a physical examination 2) Prioritize a differential diagnosis following a clinical encounter 3) Recommend and interpret common diagnostic and screening tests 4) Enter and discuss orders/prescriptions 5) Document a clinical encounter in the patient record 6) Provide an oral presentation of a clinical encounter 7) Form Clinical Questions and retrieve evidence to advance patient care 8) Give or receive a patient handover to transition care responsibility 9) Collaborate as a member of an interprofessional team 10) Recognize a patient requiring urgent or emergent care, initiate evaluation and management 11) Obtain informed consent for tests and/or procedures 12) Perform general procedures of a physician 13) Identify system failures and contribute to a culture of safety and improvement The 13 CEPAERS: Drivers of Educational Innovation US Medical School Curriculum Design and Transformation: Past, Present & Future MPPugnaire MD
