Abstract

Objective: Core curriculum describes the basic standard of medical education. In this study,we aimed to investigate primary care physicians’ views on the minimum level ofcompetency required in a general practitioner about skills listed in the National CoreCurriculum for Undergraduate Medical Education-2014 (NCC-2014) and whether they feelcompetent in these skills.Methods: Between October 1, 2017 and September 1, 2018, 27652 primary care physicianswho work in Turkey were surveyed about the skills listed in the NCC-2014. The participantsrated the minimum competency for every skill on 0–4 level, and also stated whether they feltthat the primary care physicians were competent.Results: 4117 (14.9%) participants answered entire questions. Out of 136 skills, “Level3— Should be able to do the skill in cases which are frequent and not complex” was the mostselected category for 123 (90.4%) skills, “Level2—Should be able to do the skill accordingto the guidelines in a state of emergency” was the most selected category for 10 (8.1%)skills, and “Level4—Should be able to do the skill even in complex cases” was the mostselected category for 3 (2.2%) skills by participants.Conclusions: The participants are generally willing to perform skills, but according to them,some of the skills are complex. There are differences between the required competencylevels in the NCC-2014 and the opinions of participants. Since physicians’ views areimportant for curriculum development, medical curriculum developers around the worldwould benefit from findings of this study.

Özet

Amaç: Çekirdek eğitim programı, tıp eğitiminin temel standartlarını ifade eder. Buçalışmada; birinci basamak hekimlerinin Ulusal Çekirdek Eğitim Programı-2014’teki(UÇEP-2014) beceriler hakkında bir pratisyenin sahip olması gereken asgari yeterlilikseviyesi hakkındaki görüşlerinin ve kendilerini bu becerilerde yeterli hissediphissetmediklerinin araştırılması amaçlanmıştır.Gereç ve Yöntem: Türkiye’de çalışan 27652 birinci basamak hekimine 1 Ekim 2017 ile 1Eylül 2018 arasında, UÇEP-2014’teki beceriler hakkında anket gönderildi. Katılımcılar, herbir beceriyi, olması gereken asgari yeterlilik düzeyini belirtmek için 0-4 arasında puanladı.Ayrıca bu becerilerde kendilerini yeterli görüp görmediklerini de belirttiler. Bulgular: 4117 (%14.9) katılımcı bütün soruları cevapladı. 136 beceriden 123’ündekatılımcıların en çok seçtiği kategori “Seviye3— Karmaşık olmayan, sık görülen,durumlarda/olgularda uygulamayı yapar.” iken, 10 (%8.1) beceride “Seviye2— Acil birdurumda kılavuz/yönergeye uygun biçimde uygulamayı yapar.”, 3 (%2.2) beceride ise“Seviye4— Karmaşık durumlar/olgular da dahil uygulamayı yapar.” en çok seçilenkategoriydi.Sonuç: Birinci basamak hekimleri becerileri gerçekleştirmekte genel olarak isteklidir. Fakatonlara göre bazı beceriler karmaşıktır. UÇEP-2014 ile hekimlerin görüşleri arasındafarklılıklar vardır. Hekimlerin görüşleri program geliştirme açısından önemli olduğundan,dünyanın dört bir yanındaki tıp eğitimi programı geliştiricileri bu çalışmanın bulgularındanyararlanabilir.
