Fostering interprofessional teamwork in an academic medical center: Near‐peer education for students during gross medical anatomy

Abstract: The purpose of this report is to describe student satisfaction with a near-peer interprofessional education (IPE) session for physical therapy and medical students. Ten senior physical therapy students worked in peer-groups to develop a musculoskeletal anatomy demonstration for first-semester medical students. Together with their classmates, they demonstrated observation, palpation, and musculoskeletal assessment of the shoulder and scapular-thoracic articulation to medical student dissection groups in the Gro… Show more

“…Two studies had the students from other health professions participating in the teaching, while McBride & Drake reported the results of an interprofessional activity that had medical students taking on the teaching Role with physician assistant students 36 - 38 . Overall, these studies attest to the feasibility of integrating students of different healthcare professions in the anatomy laboratory, though further studies are warranted to assess their efficacy.…”

“…For example, when senior physical therapy students at the Roy J. and Lucille A. Carver College of Medicine at the University of Iowa designed and taught a focus session on musculoskeletal clinical anatomy to medical and physical therapy students, both groups were in favor of more near‐peer IPE interactions (Shields et al, ). Furthermore, medical students had “widespread interest in future IPE interactions” and were more likely to refer to the session as IPE rather than just a study session in free form comments.…”

“…Furthermore, medical students had “widespread interest in future IPE interactions” and were more likely to refer to the session as IPE rather than just a study session in free form comments. Other comments indicated developing respect for and curiosity about the expertise of other health professions (Shields et al, ). This underscores the significance of IPE in creating a culture that will help us achieve better health care teams.…”

“…Indirectly this can be measured in better results in the exams, as reported by Horneffer (2016) and probably affect the permanent knowledge of the students. In any way, anatomical peer teaching programs do influence the test scores of the peer teachers themselves (Erie et al, 2013;Evans and Watt, 2005;Nnodim, 1997;Shields et al, 2015). However, as we were interested in the general effect of the implemented training course for the anatomical tutors at the MUG this might be of particular interest in future observations.…”
