摘要

背景:可委托的专业活动(EPAs)定义了即将毕业的风湿病学家在实践中需要独立完成的核心任务。本研究的目的是为沙特阿拉伯的风湿病学研究员培训项目制定和验证 EPA:方法:通过对 EPA 进行全面的文献综述和研究沙特风湿病学研究员培训课程,专家们开会制定了一套初步的潜在培训结束 EPA。然后,为了验证 EPA,我们在沙特阿拉伯的风湿病学专家中开展了两轮改良德尔菲技术。我们考虑到了 80% 的响应率和 25-30 名专家的最低人数要求。描述性统计用于描述所有轮次中参与者的人口统计学特征和对每个陈述的群体反应。在两轮德尔菲讨论中,专家们被要求使用 5 点李克特量表对每个 EPA 的相关性进行评分:在初步阶段,四位风湿病学专家为沙特阿拉伯的风湿病学培训计划初步制定了一套 36 项核心 EPA。在两轮德尔菲技术中,共有 32 位专家受邀完成研究。第一轮和第二轮的回复率分别为 78.12%(25 人)和 93.75%(30 人)。第一轮德尔菲研究就风湿病学培训的 31 项 EPA 达成了强有力的共识。有 5 项 EPA 被排除在外,并提出了一项新的 EPA。在随后的一轮中,所有 32 项 EPA 都达成了强烈共识。被剔除的 EPA 可能在以下一个或多个方面存在不足:与沙特阿拉伯风湿病学实践的相关性、与其他 EPA 重叠或实施过程中的实际挑战:我们为沙特阿拉伯的风湿病学研究员培训项目制定并验证了一套核心 EPA。绘制和确定这些 EPA 的里程碑是加强工作场所课程开发的必要步骤。

Developing and Validating Entrustable Professional Activities (EPAs) for Rheumatology Fellowship Training Programs in Saudi Arabia: A Delphi Study
Background: Entrustable professional activities (EPAs) define the core tasks that a graduating rheumatologist needs to perform independently in practice. The objective of this study was to develop and validate EPAs for rheumatology fellowship training programs in Saudi Arabia.
Methods: Experts met to develop an initial set of potential end-of-training EPAs by conducting a comprehensive literature review of EPAs and studying the Saudi rheumatology fellowship curriculum. Then, to validate the EPAs, we conducted two rounds of the modified Delphi technique among rheumatology experts in Saudi Arabia. A response rate of 80% was considered and the minimum number of experts needed to be 25 to 30. Descriptive statistics were utilized to describe participants’ demographic characteristics and group responses to each statement in all rounds. The experts were asked to rate the relevancy of each EPA using a 5-point Likert scale in both Delphi rounds.
Results: In the preliminary phase, four rheumatologists developed an initial set of 36 core EPAs for rheumatology training program in Saudi Arabia. For the two-rounds Delphi techniques, 32 experts were invited to complete the study. The response rate of the first and second round were, 78.12% (25) and 93.75% (30), respectively. The first-round Delphi resulted in a robust consensus on 31 EPAs for rheumatology training. Five EPAs were excluded, and one new EPA was proposed. In the subsequent round, all 32 EPAs achieved strong consensus. The eliminated EPAs likely fell short in one or more of the following areas: relevance to rheumatology practice in Saudi Arabia, overlapping with other EPAs, or practical challenges in the implementation.
Conclusion: We have developed and validated a core set of EPAs for rheumatology fellowship training programs in Saudi Arabia. Mapping and identifying milestones for these EPAs are essential steps to follow to enhance workplace curriculum development.
