“Structured with contemporary education methods” regarding anaesthesiology and reanimation internship education evaluation of student feedback

Abstract

Aims: This study aims to evaluate our training program, which is carried out with contemporary education methods in anaesthesia internship, for the students of our faculty, with student feedback. Methods: In order to evaluate the comments of the students about the internship content, 1051 feedback forms filled out since 2008 were examined. There were 16 questions in the form, 15 of which were closed-ended and 1 open-ended. Results: In the general evaluation of the internship program, 48.4% (n=509) of the students evaluated it as very productive and 46.1% (n=484) as productive. The percentage of respondents who said they were proficient in the "skill of vascular access," one of the abilities taught on models during clinical skills training and later used on patients, was 95.1% (n=999). 29.7% (n=312) of the students admitted that their "intubation practice" was inadequate. Conclusion: It is crucial that the anaesthetic internship, which teaches one of the most fundamental medical skills—airway safety—be developed in accordance with the feedback received from the students. Standardised applied training programs increase the successful outcome of anaesthesia internship education.
