{"title":"Development of a mannequin lab for clinical training in a chiropractic program.","authors":"E. Owens, Lydia L Dever, R. Hosek, Brent S.

The university had developed a mannequin over the previous 4 years consisting of a full-sized human torso with individually movable and palpable vertebrae, pelvis, and thighs. In the mannequin, 64 pressure sensors are attached to particular vertebral and skeletal landmarks and provide feedback on palpation location and level of force applied. We assembled 3 teams to produce 20 copies of that mannequin for student use.\u0000\u0000\u0000RESULTS\u0000Mannequins were produced in 7 weeks, and space was built out for a special lab. Faculty members are developing classroom procedures to introduce the mannequin to students, phase in the skills from static and motion palpation, and practice thrust performance.\u0000\u0000\u0000CONCLUSION\u0000The production run was successful, and the resulting equipment, well-received by students and faculty. In addition to helping teach manual skills, the lab serves as a platform for educational research to test the efficacy of mannequin-based training protocols. With the pressure sensors on known locations along the spine, future research may be able to test the ability of students to identify and contact specific target locations for adjustive thrusts.","PeriodicalId":214673,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of chiropractic education","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124416890","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}

The surveys were sent out electronically in March 2020 to chiropractic students enrolled at our college. Data were analyzed with descriptive statistics and t test or analysis of variance to determine statistically significant differences between variables. Data were compared with that obtained in 2018, under no lockdown conditions.\u0000\u0000\u0000RESULTS\u0000The survey had an overall response rate of 48.94%. Women presented statistically significant higher values for stress (p = .002) and exhaustion (p = .007). Younger students tended to suffer more stress than their older peers. When comparing lockdown data with that of 2018, students presented significantly lower stress levels but higher cynicism.\u0000\u0000\u0000CONCLUSION\u0000Women presented higher values for stress and exhaustion than the men. When comparing data with a prior study in 2018 with no lockdown situation, current students appeared to have lower levels of stress but increased cynicism.","PeriodicalId":214673,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of chiropractic education","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122088039","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}

The educative process may adversely affect the empathy levels of health care students at key phases of training. This topic remains unexplored in chiropractic students to date.\u0000\u0000\u0000METHODS\u0000A voluntary and anonymous questionnaire was distributed to all chiropractic students in an Australian university-based program in April 2021. This questionnaire recorded age, sex, year of study, and Toronto Empathy Questionnaire scores.\u0000\u0000\u0000RESULTS\u0000Chiropractic student empathy scores approximated those of other Australian health care students. No statistical differences were found when comparing the mean scores of empathy levels across the 5 student cohorts.
