Abstract

Background/aim: There is a lack of a comprehensive dental curriculum for teaching child abuse-neglect (CAN) with traumatic dental injuries (TDIs). The integration of problem-based learning (PBL) to discuss CAN cases within a pediatric or dental trauma curriculum has never been investigated. The aim of this mixed-method, observational cohort study was to investigate the impact of PBL on student performance and self-perceived benefits in a pediatric dental trauma curriculum with training on CAN.

Material and methods: The performance of two cohorts of students who received a comprehensive pediatric dental trauma curriculum with or without CAN case discussion in a PBL format was studied. A t-test compared scores and numbers of attempts on CAN and TDI examinations between cohorts with or without PBL case discussions on CAN. A voluntary three-question survey assessed students' perceived learning benefits. Differences in survey agreement were analyzed using the Mantel-Haenszel ordinal Chi-square test. Pearson's correlation assessed associations between scores (α = 0.05).

Results: CAN case discussion in the PBL format in a pediatric dental trauma curriculum significantly improved the students' scores on CAN (p = 0.02) and TDIs (p = 0.03) examinations. However, the first-time pass rates were improved for the CAN examination only (p = 0.003), with no correlation between the two examinations. A significantly higher proportion of students in the cohort with CAN case discussions in the PBL format reported the experience as beneficial (p = 0.04) and the discussed cases as appropriate for learning (p = 0.018).

Conclusion: Discussion of CAN cases in the PBL format significantly improved students' knowledge and self-perceived learning benefits. Students' knowledge about different domains of dental trauma should be independently evaluated.

儿童牙外伤课程中儿童虐待-忽视的整合:一项混合方法观察队列研究。
背景/目的:目前缺乏一个综合性的牙科课程来教授创伤性牙损伤(TDIs)的儿童虐待-忽视(CAN)。整合基于问题的学习(PBL)来讨论小儿或牙外伤课程中的CAN病例从未被调查过。这项混合方法的观察性队列研究的目的是调查PBL对儿童牙外伤课程中具有CAN培训的学生表现和自我感知利益的影响。材料和方法:研究了两组接受综合儿科牙外伤课程的学生的表现,其中有或没有以PBL形式进行CAN病例讨论。t检验比较了有或没有PBL病例讨论CAN的队列之间的CAN和TDI检查的分数和尝试次数。一项由三个问题组成的自愿调查评估了学生对学习益处的感知。调查一致性差异采用Mantel-Haenszel序数卡方检验进行分析。Pearson相关评价评分之间的相关性(α = 0.05)。结果:在儿童牙外伤课程中进行PBL形式的CAN案例讨论,显著提高了学生在CAN (p = 0.02)和TDIs (p = 0.03)考试中的成绩。然而,只有CAN考试的首次通过率提高(p = 0.003),两种考试之间没有相关性。在以PBL形式进行CAN案例讨论的队列中,有更高比例的学生报告说这种经历是有益的(p = 0.04),所讨论的案例适合学习(p = 0.018)。结论:PBL形式的CAN案例讨论显著提高了学生的知识水平和自我感知的学习效益。学生对牙外伤不同领域的知识应进行独立评估。
