摘要

导言牙医的主要工作区域是头颈部,由颅神经支配。牙医每天都必须进行局部麻醉,以确保无痛治疗,并区分牙痛和神经病变,避免错误治疗。因此,神经解剖学培训,尤其是有关颅神经的培训,对临床实践具有极其重要的意义。为了采用该课程,有必要不断评估培训质量,并研究学生的成绩与子领域与其工作的相关性之间是否存在关联。材料和方法为了解决这一问题,我们分析了柏林夏里特大学牙科学生神经解剖学课程 MC 考试的结果(2014/2015 冬季学期至 2019/2020 冬季学期)。每个问题都被分配到神经解剖学的一个特定子领域。然后,我们比较了颅神经和颅神经核(与临床相关)和其余子领域(与临床不太相关/不相关),以研究学生是否在更符合牙医临床实践的解剖学子领域表现更好。我们还对牙科学生进行了匿名调查(n=201)。结果从2014/2015学年冬季学期到2019/2020学年冬季学期,学生在MC考试中与临床相关的问题上的表现明显优于与临床不太相关/不相关的问题(***,p< 0.001)。然而,如果将 11 个学期分别来看,实际上只有 3 个学期的学生在临床相关问题上的表现明显更好。我们的调查还显示,学生认为颅神经和颅神经核亚领域与临床最相关,并出于自己的兴趣对其进行了更深入的学习。然而,学生成绩与临床相关问题之间并无直接关联。结论:更高的临床相关性会影响学生出于自身兴趣更深入地学习,但不会影响管委会考试的结果,而有利于该亚专业。根据现有证据,建议重新考虑神经解剖学课程的结构。

Comparison of the study performance of dental students in different subfields of neuroanatomy at the Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin and evaluation of the neuroanatomy course in the fourth preclinical semester

Introduction

The dentist's main working area is the head and neck region, which is innervated by the cranial nerves. On a daily basis, dentists must administer local anaesthesia to ensure pain-free treatment and differentiate between dental pain and neuropathies to avoid mistreatment. Therefore, neuroanatomical training, especially on the cranial nerves, is of immense importance for clinical practice. In order to adopt the curriculum, it is essential to constantly evaluate the quality of the training and to investigate whether there is a correlation between the students' performance and the relevance of the subfields to their work.

Material and methods

To address this issue, the results of MC exams in the neuroanatomy course for dental students at Charité-Universitätsmedizin Berlin from winter semester 2014/2015 to winter semester 2019/2020 were analysed. Each question was assigned to a specific subfield of neuroanatomy. We then compared cranial nerves and cranial nerve nuclei (clinically relevant) with the remaining subfields (clinically less/not relevant) to investigate whether students performed better in anatomy subfields that are more aligned with the clinical practice of a dentist. We also conducted an anonymous survey (n=201) of the dental students.

Results

From winter semester 2014/2015 to winter semester 2019/2020, students performed significantly (***, p< 0.001) better on the clinically relevant questions of the MC examination than on the less/not clinically relevant questions. However, when looking at each of the eleven semesters separately, only three semesters actually performed significantly better on the clinically relevant questions. Our survey also showed that students perceived the subfield of cranial nerves and cranial nerve nuclei to be the most relevant and studied it more intensively out of their own interest.

Discussion

The study showed that students perceived the subfield of cranial nerves and cranial nerve nuclei to be the most relevant. However, there was no direct correlation between student performance and clinically relevant questions. Using student performance alone as an indicator of relevance is not optimal, as factors such as motivation to learn can have a significant impact.

Conclusion

Greater clinical relevance influences what students learn more intensively out of their own interest, but does not influence the results of the MC examination in favour of the subspecialty. Based on the available evidence, it is recommended that the structure of the neuroanatomy course be reconsidered.
