Abstract

Objectives: The care of women and their families around childbirth requires effective interprofessional collaboration of the midwifery and medical profession. Given the academisation of midwifery, early interaction between students of midwifery and medicine is both necessary and feasible. As there is a lack of comprehensive data on interprofessional education (IPE) for midwifery and medical students at higher education institutions in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland (DACH region), the aim was to identify existing IPE activities, and their curricular determination.

Methods: The exploratory study was conducted in the DACH region over three months (Dec. 2022-Feb. 2023). Higher education institutions offering midwifery science and/or medicine were invited to participate in a web-based survey. The questionnaire focused on the structure and curricular implementation of IPE courses, on cooperation, financial support and more.

Results: A total of 58 out of 96 invited institutions (60%) participated in the survey, of which 34 (59%) offered IPE. Eighteen institutions (19%) offered 32 IPE courses for midwifery and medical students through cooperation within faculty (n=8) and between faculties (n=10). Notably, most of these IPE courses (60%) were integrated into the required curriculum of both study programmes. Most IPE courses were offered without financial support (71%).

Conclusion: The current status quo highlighted the existence of numerous IPE offers for midwifery and medical students in the DACH region that warrant further curricular integration of proven and well-established best practice examples to further enhance these initiatives.

德国、奥地利和瑞士的助产士和医科学生跨专业教育现状。
目标:围绕分娩为妇女及其家人提供护理需要助产士和医学专业的有效跨专业合作。鉴于助产专业的学院化,助产专业学生和医学专业学生之间的早期互动既必要又可行。由于德国、奥地利和瑞士(DACH 地区)的高等教育机构缺乏有关助产士和医科学生跨专业教育(IPE)的全面数据,因此本研究旨在确定现有的 IPE 活动及其课程设置:这项探索性研究在 DACH 地区进行,历时三个月(2022 年 12 月至 2023 年 2 月)。提供助产科学和/或医学课程的高等教育机构受邀参与了一项网络调查。问卷主要涉及 IPE 课程的结构和课程实施、合作、财政支持等方面:在 96 所受邀院校中,共有 58 所院校(60%)参与了调查,其中 34 所院校(59%)开设了 IPE 课程。18所院校(19%)通过院系内部(8所)和院系之间(10所)的合作,为助产士和医科学生开设了32门IPE课程。值得注意的是,这些 IPE 课程中的大部分(60%)都被纳入了这两个专业的必修课程。大多数 IPE 课程都是在没有财政支持的情况下开设的(71%):目前的现状突出表明,在 DACH 地区为助产士和医科学生提供了大量的 IPE 课程,需要进一步将经过验证和完善的最佳实践范例纳入课程,以进一步加强这些举措。

期刊介绍: GMS Journal for Medical Education (GMS J Med Educ) – formerly GMS Zeitschrift für Medizinische Ausbildung – publishes scientific articles on all aspects of undergraduate and graduate education in medicine, dentistry, veterinary medicine, pharmacy and other health professions. Research and review articles, project reports, short communications as well as discussion papers and comments may be submitted. There is a special focus on empirical studies which are methodologically sound and lead to results that are relevant beyond the respective institution, profession or country. Please feel free to submit qualitative as well as quantitative studies. We especially welcome submissions by students. It is the mission of GMS Journal for Medical Education to contribute to furthering scientific knowledge in the German-speaking countries as well as internationally and thus to foster the improvement of teaching and learning and to build an evidence base for undergraduate and graduate education. To this end, the journal has set up an editorial board with international experts. All manuscripts submitted are subjected to a clearly structured peer review process. All articles are published bilingually in English and German and are available with unrestricted open access. Thus, GMS Journal for Medical Education is available to a broad international readership. GMS Journal for Medical Education is published as an unrestricted open access journal with at least four issues per year. In addition, special issues on current topics in medical education research are also published. Until 2015 the journal was published under its German name GMS Zeitschrift für Medizinische Ausbildung. By changing its name to GMS Journal for Medical Education, we wish to underline our international mission.
