简要总结
This study, focusing on the management of pediatric asthma exacerbations, assesses the clinical skills of medical students using three different evaluation tools: (i) the simulation game "Effic'Asthme" developed to train individuals on the management of pediatric asthma exacerbations; (ii) a multiple choice questionnaire (MCQ) on the same subject developed for the purpose of the study and (iii) high fidelity (HF)-simulation, considered as the gold-standard for its enhanced realism.
Its objective is to determine which of the simulation game or the MCQ reflects the best the clinical competence of medical students evaluated on a HF simulator.
详细描述
The assessment of medical students' clinical competence has long been of concern to educational institutions. Objective structural clinical examination (OSCE) and assessments in high-fidelity (HF) simulation settings represent interesting evaluation modalities but are associated with huge costs, especially when they are used for large-scale standardized assessments. Multiple choice questionnaires (MCQ) remain the most common evaluation tool in medical schools.
Simulation games may represent an interesting compromise between the cheap but limited assessment allowed by MCQs, and the comprehensive but highly expensive assessment allowed by OSCE and HF simulation.
This study, focusing on the management of pediatric asthma exacerbations, assesses the clinical skills of medical students using three different evaluation tools: (i) the simulation game "Effic'Asthme" developed to train individuals on the management of pediatric asthma exacerbations; (ii) a MCQ on the same subject developed for the purpose of the study and (iii) HF-simulation, considered as the gold-standard for its enhanced realism.
Its objective is to determine which of the simulation game or the MCQ reflects the best the clinical competence of medical students evaluated on a HF simulator.

研究组 & 干预措施
All participants
All participants are evaluated on a scenario of pediatric asthma exacerbation using three different evaluation tools: (i) the simulation game EfficAsthme developed to train individuals on the management of pediatric asthma exacerbations; (ii) a MCQ on the same subject developed for the purpose of the study and (iii) HF-simulation, considered as the gold-standard for its enhanced realism.

结局指标
主要结局
Items of the "asthma exacerbation performance score"
时间窗: Baseline
This score uses a scale designed for the purpose of the study, the "Asthma exacerbation performance score", ranging from 0 to 19, 19 being the highest rate meaning that all the actions were correctly performed (1 point per action correctly performed). This score will allow to calculate the degree of correlation calculated by Kappa coefficient for each action performed or answer provided, between the simulation game and the high fidelity simulation session on the one hand; and between the multiple choice questionnaire and the high fidelity simulation session on the other hand; Then, we will compare the median Kappa coefficients for each condition, and determine which of the multiple choice questionnaire or the simulation game reflects the best the clinical competence of medical students observed during a high-fidelity simulation session.
次要结局
- The satisfaction of students using Likert-scales with each evaluation modality(Baseline)
- The total score on the "asthma exacerbation performance score"(Baseline)
