Five Medical Education Podcasts You Need to Know.

ABSTRACT: Podcasts have become increasingly popular tools for medical education in recent years. Only requiring a computer or smart phone, podcasts are readily accessible to healthcare professionals, helping to disseminate medical information quickly and creating a wide community of listeners. With numerous medical podcasts available and limited spare time, it can be challenging for a healthcare professional to identify the most high-yield podcast. This perspectives piece describes the role of podcasts in medical education before sharing five in-depth recommendations from Yale School of Nursing and Yale School of Medicine students and faculty. These five podcasts are: The Curbsiders Internal Medicine Podcast, Flip the Script, The Clinical Problem Solvers, 2 Docs Talk, and Key Literature in Medical Education (KeyLIME) Podcast. Each podcast summary includes its average length, the episode frequency, the intended audience, a brief description, a representative episode, and quotes from interviews with the podcast hosts.

Project description:Background Continuous medical education is essential for the individual patient care, the society, and the wellbeing of the general practitioner. There has been research into the reasons for participation in continuous medical education, but little is known about the barriers to participation. To tailor continuous medical education targeting general practitioners who are currently deselecting education, systematic knowledge of the barriers is needed. Continuous medical education can in addition to professional growth stimulate job satisfaction, diminish burnout, and reinforce feelings of competence. Continuous medical education may have positive implications for patients and for healthcare expenditures. Despite renumeration and a comprehensive continuous education model some Danish general practitioners do not participate in continuous medical education. Methods From a total of 3440 Danish general practitioners 243 did not apply for reimbursement for accredited continuous medical education in a two-year period. Ten general practitioners were selected for an interview regarding maximum variation in practice form, number of listed patients, seniority as a general practitioner, geography, gender, and age. All ten selected general practitioners accepted to be interviewed. The interviews were analysed using Systematic Text Condensation. Results Each of the ten interviewed general practitioners mentioned several barriers for participating in continuous education. The barriers fell into three main categories: barriers related to the individual general practitioner barriers related to the clinic barriers related to the accredited continuous medical education offered Conclusions Approximately 7% of the Danish general practitioners did not participate in accredited remunerated continuous medical education. A knowledge of the barriers for participating in accredited continuous medical education can be used to better target continuous medical education to the general practitioners.
