摘要

简介。沟通技巧(CS)在医科学生(MS)与患者的互动中发挥着至关重要的作用。在全面接触病人以提供综合护理时,沟通技巧至关重要,其目的是治疗疾病并提高病人满意度。然而,斯里兰卡学生的沟通技能培训(CST)似乎存在不足。在早期阶段加强沟通技能培训将有助于培养出以患者为中心的医生,从而加强对患者的护理。本研究旨在评估学生对(CST)的态度水平和模式,以及以患者为中心对这种态度的影响。材料与方法本研究采用自填问卷的方式对最后两年的多发性硬化症患者进行了描述性横断面研究。沟通技巧态度量表和患者-从业者取向量表分别用于确定对 CST 和以患者为中心的态度。独立样本 t 检验和皮尔逊相关系数用于评估变量间的关系。采用统计显著性检验。结果总体而言,学生对 CST 持有较高的积极态度(平均值为 3.80)和较低的消极态度(平均值为 2.16)。更积极的态度与之前参加过 CST 课程、女生性别和以病人为中心有关。女生和高年级学生以病人为中心的程度更高,在关爱分量表上的得分也更高。分享分量表与对 CST 的积极态度之间存在明显关联。结论我们的研究结果表明,通过 CST 计划提高 MS 的 "以病人为中心 "意识将增强他们所需的基本 CS。在斯里兰卡的医学课程中,无论是在本科课程的开始阶段还是后期,将此类课程作为一门正式课程纳入其中,都将提高以病人为中心的意识,从而改善对病人的护理。

Exploring Attitudes toward Communication Skills Training and Their Impact on Patient-Centeredness among Medical Students in Sri Lanka: A Cross-Sectional Study
Introduction. Communication skills (CS) play a paramount role in medical students’ (MS) interaction with patients. They are essential when approaching a patient holistically to provide comprehensive care with the aim of both treating an illness and improving patient satisfaction. However, there seems to be a deficiency in communication skills training (CST) for students in Sri Lanka. Enhancing CS at an early stage will give rise to patient-centered doctors in the future, thus augmenting patient care. This study aimed to evaluate the level and patterns of attitude toward (CST) and the weight of patient-centeredness on such attitudes. Materials and Methods. A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted using self-administered questionnaires among MS in the final 2 years. The Communication Skills Attitude Scale and Patient–Practitioner Orientation Scale were used to determine attitudes toward CST and patient-centeredness, respectively. Independent sample t-tests and Pearson’s correlation coefficient were used to evaluate intervariable relationships. A statistical significance of was used. Results. Students had high positive attitudes (mean 3.80) and lesser negative attitudes (mean 2.16) toward CST, in general. A greater positive attitude was associated with prior attendance to a CST session, female gender, and patient-centeredness. Female students and final-year students showed higher levels of patient-centeredness and also scored more on the caring subscale. There was a significant association between the sharing subscore and a positive attitude toward CST. Conclusion. Our findings suggest that improving patient-centeredness among MS via a CST program would enhance the essential CS required of them. Integration of such a program as a formal subject into the medical curriculum of Sri Lanka, both at the beginning and latter part of the undergraduate course, would lead to better patient-centeredness, thus leading to improved patient care.
