摘要
导言:随着难民适应一个新的国家,他们的医疗保健可能会付出代价。难民可能难以适应新的医疗保健系统,健康自我效能感较低。另一个可能的因素是涉及难民健康问题的见习医疗课程不足。方法:我们设计了模拟临床体验,称为模拟医疗访问。在模拟医疗访问前后采用问卷调查对难民健康自我效能感量表和学员跨文化交际恐惧个人报告进行评估。结果:健康自我效能量表得分由13.67分提高到15.47分(P = 0.08, n = 15)。跨文化交际理解个人报告得分从27.1分下降到25.4分(P = 0.40, n = 10)。讨论:虽然我们的研究没有达到统计意义,但总体趋势表明,模拟医疗访问可以成为提高难民社区成员健康自我效能感和减少医学实习生跨文化交流恐惧的有价值的工具。
The Effect of a Mock Medical Visit on Refugee Health Self-Efficacy and Medical Trainee Communication Apprehension.
Introduction: As refugees adjust to a new country, their health care can take a toll. Refugees may have difficulty navigating a new health care system and experience low health self-efficacy. Another potential contributor is inadequate medical trainee curriculum addressing refugee health.
Methods: We devised simulated clinic experiences called mock medical visits. Surveys were utilized before and after the mock medical visits to assess the Health Self-Efficacy Scale for refugees and the Personal Report of Intercultural Communication Apprehension for trainees.
Results: Health Self-Efficacy Scale scores increased from 13.67 to 15.47 (P = 0.08, n = 15). Personal Report of Intercultural Communication Apprehension scores decreased from 27.1 to 25.4 (P = 0.40, n = 10).
Discussion: While our study did not reach statistical significance, the overall trends suggest mock medical visits can be a valuable tool to increase health self-efficacy in refugee community members and decrease intercultural communication apprehension in medical trainees.
