Résumé
To determine the effectiveness of education in evidence-based medicine (EBM) on the knowledge, competency, and skills of otolaryngology residents of Tehran University of Medical Sciences (TUMS) at Amir-Alam and Imam Khomeini Hospitals. In a quasi-experimental (before-and-after) study, all ear, nose, and throat residents of TUMS (n = 41) entered the study. The residents underwent the modified Fresno test. Then, two EBM workshops with a similar content were held on 2 separate days in each hospital, with each session lasting 6 hours. The learned material was practiced in weekly journal clubs. Six months after the workshop, the modified Fresno test was applied again, and the results were analyzed. A significant improvement in the modified Fresno test score was observed. The mean score of the modified Fresno test was 57.43 ± 22.07 before the workshop and 79.26 ± 22.48 after the workshop (P < 0.001). The results of the study show that EBM education and practice of the learned materials in journal clubs can improve the knowledge and skills of residents. Further research with larger samples is needed to improve the precision of our findings and to increase confidence in the results. 2 Laryngoscope, 129:2291-2294, 2019.
