Abstract
Abstract: Knowledge in diagnostic radiology and performance of point-of-care ultrasound are integral to acute care nurse practitioners (ACNPs) in the inpatient settings, especially true in specialty areas such as interventional radiology and critical care. However, existing ACNP training programs, including at our institution, often lack robust relevant course content. To address this educational gap, we designed and implemented a pilot acute care radiology course, incorporating a flipped classroom approach and hands-on simulation activities led by expert faculty. Our course evaluation revealed high levels of student satisfaction, self-reported confidence, and perceived course effectiveness. The course aligns with key competencies outlined by the American Association of Colleges of Nursing, demonstrating its potential to advance ACNP education in radiology content.
摘要：放射诊断知识和护理点超声波操作是急症护理执业护士（ACNPs）在住院环境中不可或缺的，尤其是在介入放射学和重症护理等专业领域。然而，包括本机构在内的现有 ACNP 培训计划往往缺乏强有力的相关课程内容。为了弥补这一教育空白，我们设计并实施了一门急诊放射学试点课程，该课程结合了翻转课堂方法和由专家教师指导的实践模拟活动。我们的课程评估显示，学生的满意度、自我报告的自信心和对课程效果的认知度都很高。该课程与美国护理学院协会（American Association of Colleges of Nursing）概述的关键能力相一致，证明了其在推进 ACNP 放射学内容教育方面的潜力。
期刊介绍：
The Journal of the American Association of Nurse Practitioners (JAANP) is a monthly peer-reviewed professional journal that serves as the official publication of the American Association of Nurse Practitioners.
Published since 1989, the JAANP provides a strong clinical focus with articles related to primary, secondary, and tertiary care, nurse practitioner education, health policy, ethics and ethical issues, and health care delivery. The journal publishes original research, integrative/comprehensive reviews, case studies, a variety of topics in clinical practice, and theory-based articles related to patient and professional education. Although the majority of nurse practitioners function in primary care, there is an increasing focus on the provision of care across all types of systems from acute to long-term care settings.
