生命支持能力是否是孟加拉国本科医学教育的紧迫问题？

背景：在任何紧急情况下，生命支持技能都是让病人从危境中存活下来的金钥匙。医科学生、实习医生和医学毕业生在急诊环境中向医学教师和急诊顾问学习。目标：确定孟加拉国医学本科生目前的生命支持能力。方法：这项横断面研究于 2022 年 7 月至 2023 年 6 月进行，旨在确定医科学生和实习生正在掌握/获得的生命支持能力。研究采用自填式半结构问卷调查法，从方便选取的 300 名五年级医学生、321 名实习生、114 名应届毕业生和 300 名临床教师中收集数据。结果：采用 6 点语义差异量表来了解受访者的观点。研究显示，在 6 点量表（0-5）中，受访者对生命支持能力管理知识的平均值为 1.77 至 3.06，但对基于技能的能力的平均值为 1.15 至 2.75。在 16 个问题中，应届毕业生在 10 个问题上的意见明显低于其他受访者群体。结论医学生和实习生在课程中获得的生命支持能力不足。应采取必要行动，提高医学生和实习生在生命支持紧急情况下的能力。BJME，第 15 卷，第 01 期，2024 年 1 月：1-2
