The effectiveness of mastering a patient-oriented interdisciplinary model of interaction on the example of robot-assisted learning technologies

摘要

Objective. To assess the effectiveness of using humanoid robots in preparation for the specialists` accreditation and training of doctors and students of a medical university. Materials and methods. In a prospective study, two groups of 5th–6th-year students of the medical and dental faculties were analyzed in order to find out the success of patient curation. Students were asked to conduct a patient survey and make an initial diagnosis with the nosologies "coronary heart disease" and "Takotsubo cardiomyopathy". The first group was taught by patient`s supervision according to the standard training model, the second group was trained using a simulator robot. At the end of the curation, students were asked to fill in a checklist to assess their success. Results. Curation on the first clinical scenario was successfully performed in 85 % of cases in group 1 and in 100 % in group 2 (p0.0001). On the second clinical scenario, successful curation in group 1 was carried out in 11 % of cases and in 100% of cases in group 2 (p0.0001). When assessing curation according to the checklist, the average number of points in group 1 was 7.3 ± 1.5 points, in group 2 – 8.5 ± 1.6 points (p0.0001). Conclusions. The integration of robotic systems into simulated learning increases the effectiveness of teaching in terms of covering more aspects of various topics due to repeated identical reproduction of the situation.
