Journal Title: Medpulse International Journal of Gynaecology - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
Background: Feedback is information delivered to the learner about his strengths and weakness in a specific given task, it gives the information on gaps between desired level of competency and actual level of competency in the learner. Feedback forms the back bone of progressive learning. Methodology: This study was conducted on Obstetrics and Gynaecology Residents taking up formative assessments. Initial base line scoring was done followed by feedback in consecutive assessments and post feedback scoring on likert scale was recorded. Prefeedback scores and post feedback scores were compared and statistically analysed. Results: Post feedback average improvement in performance of all residents was 22%. Analysis of Mentor assessment score revealed significant improvement in resident’s performance. (P=0.18). Resident’s self assessment in pre and post feedback performance showed an overall increase by 32%, however p value of resident’s self assessment was not significant.(p=0.68). Conclusion: It is inferred from this pilot study that feedback has a positive learning impact on the resident, proper curricular design with trained mentors in giving feedback will improve the outcome of the resident.
