This study aimed to determine when pharmacy students would refer patients to medical care as an indicator of clinical skill. \u0000Methods: First- and final-year students from four schools were surveyed to determine referral timelines for 17 scenarios. Responders also quantified symptom severity and their confidence levels.\u0000Results: Students responding to at least three cases were kept for analysis (n = 117). First-year students considered nasal congestion to be low in severity, with painful urination and rectal bleeding deemed more serious, all while considering most cases more serious than upper-year students. Student confidence was generally lower in new students. Referral times showed similar patterns between years and universities. Red eye, painful urination, diarrhoea (child), and Gastro-Oesophageal Reflux Disease (GORD) (unhealthy patient) were referred quicker than nasal allergies and cough. Referrals typically stayed within a two-week window for most situations.\u0000Conclusion: Timelines for medical care were similar between years and institutions. As expected, new students assessed cases as more serious and had less confidence than their upper-year colleagues. A concern for the institutions might be the low rate of real-world case exposure within programmes.","PeriodicalId":19944,"journal":{"name":"Pharmacy Education","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2023-08-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70559131","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Correlation between student performance in drug quizzes and major assessments in their pharmacy coursework was measured using the Spearman rank correlation analysis. Statistically significant change in student opinion through the term was determined using the Wilcoxon signed rank test.\u0000Results: Student scores on weekly quizzes and the final drug exam ranged between 85-99%. A strong positive (ρ ≥ 0.7), significant (p < 0.001) correlation was observed between student performance on their drug information assessments and their scores in all pharmacy courses. Within the second-professional year, a significant improvement (17.7%) in students’ perceived ability for the weekly quizzes to positively impact their course grades in the modules (p = 0.03). Student confidence in matching brand/generic drugs and identifying drugs’ therapeutic classes improved over the term (p < 0.01).\u0000Conclusion: Students were overall accepting and had a predominantly positive perspective regarding the repeated top drug information assessment policy.","PeriodicalId":19944,"journal":{"name":"Pharmacy Education","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2023-08-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41356507","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: Third and fourth-year pharmacy students completed a Qualtrics survey where they were asked to self-identify their entrustability level (scale of I–V) on each of the fifteen core entrustable professional activities (EPAs) for pharmacy graduates. Results: A total of 249 third-year students completed the APPE-readiness survey in the Fall of 2017–2019, and 106 fourth-year students completed the practice-readiness survey in the Spring of 2018. The highest entrustability level in both surveys was “create a written plan for continuous professional development”. The lowest reported entrustability levels in both surveys were: “Oversee the pharmacy operations…”, “Maximise the appropriate use of medications…,” and “Establish patient-centred goals and create a plan…”. The largest area of change from pre-APPE to post-APPE was overseeing pharmacy operations, with an increase of 26%. The average pre-APPE entrustment level was 3.72, increasing to 4.2 in the practice readiness portion. The percentage of students self-reporting below an entrustment level of 3 in the practice-readiness survey ranged from 0–0.99%. Conclusion: Pharmacy students increased their self-reported level of entrustability over all 15 EPA domains from pre-APPE to post-APPE year.","PeriodicalId":19944,"journal":{"name":"Pharmacy Education","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135519371","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A novel approach was implemented using DI focused learning opportunities to educate first year learners about clinical relevance and integration of basic science concepts into pharmacist knowledge.\u0000Methods: A lecture introduced the integration by mapping sections of a drug’s prescribing information to all courses in the University of Kansas School of Pharmacy curriculum. An innovative activity required students to use the knowledge obtained from concurrent P1 courses to determine the cause of death of a fictional patient. Other activities included answering drug availability questions on the clinical development process and presenting a research article.

Numerous studies demonstrate that provider education regarding HIV helps alleviate bias. Pharmacy schools significantly vary in their curriculum surrounding HIV education, with a limited focus on HIV in the paediatric population. Being one of the most accessible healthcare providers, improving pharmacist education and attitudes could positively impact treatment outcomes for children living with HIV.\u0000Method: An Advanced HIV Elective course that included content in the management of children living with HIV (CLWH) was developed and implemented by faculty at a Doctor of Pharmacy program in the United States. Student pharmacist knowledge, confidence, and perceptions of providing care for this population were assessed before and after the didactic module.\u0000Results: The incorporation of a paediatric HIV module increased the knowledge and confidence of student pharmacists in the management of PLWH and CLWH. Areas of improvement include the selection of antiretroviral therapy (ART), ART medication counselling, and paediatric immunisations. However, a significant difference in attitudes and perceptions towards PLWH and CLWH was not observed.\u0000Conclusion: Although improvement in student pharmacist knowledge and confidence was seen after the implementation of a paediatric HIV module, innovative ways to address bias, stigma, and misinformation are needed to promote positive health outcomes for marginalised communities, including those living with HIV.","PeriodicalId":19944,"journal":{"name":"Pharmacy Education","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2023-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44490241","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
