  • Title: Development and use of military-unique standardized gynecology patients for military residents in obstetrics and gynecology training programs.
    Author: Zedek IJ, Hines JF, Thomas AR, Satin AJ, Armstrong AY, Haffner WH.
    Journal: Mil Med; 1998 Nov; 163(11):767-9. PubMed ID: 9819538.
    Abstract:
    Focused military curricula and readiness training are often inadequate for military resident physicians. We developed a standardized gynecologic military-unique patient scenario and examination to assess obstetrics and gynecology residents' clinical and operational problem-solving abilities. Integration of military-unique gynecologic standardized patients, clinical scenarios, and objective structured clinical examinations into obstetrics and gynecology curricula is a novel approach for realistic medical readiness training for resident physicians. This tool can become a cornerstone in the ongoing development of needed military-unique curricula.
