Journal Title: Medpulse International Journal of Radiology - Year 2018, Vol 8, Issue 2
Abstract
Objective: The study was designed to observe the effectiveness of one minute preceptor in teaching radiology. Materials and methods: A total of forty students were included in the study after obtaining the written informed consent. The study participants were randomly assigned into two groups that is OMP and traditional teaching groups. Pretest was conducted before and OMP implemented to OMP group and traditional teaching was implemented to other group. A posttest was implemented. Results: Results are presented in table no 1 to 4. There was significant improvement in the pre-test and post test scores of MCQ and viva voce in the OMP group. There was significant improvement in the pre-test and post test scores of MCQ in the traditional teaching group. Pre-test and post test scores of viva voce was not significantly different in the traditional teaching group. Post-test scores of MCQ and viva voce in OMP and traditional teaching groups were significantly different. Conclusion: The present study provides further evidence for implementation of OMP in teaching radiology. The study highlights the need to continue further research in this area to recommend the implementation of the OMP in the curriculum.
