A 72 year-old patient presents with progressive difficulty breathing, jugular venous distention, orthopnea, bilateral lower extremity edema , and bilateral rales. Which of the following is most important when deciding upon treatment options? We don’t treat patients without understanding the etiology of their predicament and the nature of the

  • intervention. Guiding residents’ learning should follow

similar guidelines.

XR = XT + ME

XR = Reported ISE Score Scores

Percent = items correct = raw score Percentile = resident rank compared to peers

The report of the performance of a PGY2 on his ISE reveals a percent correct of 63 and a percentile rank of 67. What should you do?

  • A. mandate the resident enter a remediation program
  • B. reduce work hours by 25% to increase study time
  • C. do not promote the resident to the PGY3 year
  • D. encourage the resident to keep studying
  • E. resign as program director

Your PGY2 from the previous example is now a PGY3. His percentile rank while in your program has been PGY1 = 62, PGY2 = 67, PGY3 = 64. What should you do?

A.

realize that this is a common pattern of progression

B.

worry that this resident will fail his certifying exam

C.

do not promote the resident to the PGY4 year

D.

terminate this resident from your program

E.

delegate the situation to your associate PD
