Aprendizagem baseada em casos clínicos em vídeo: facilitando o ensino em psiquiatria

Abstract

Introduction: Teaching psychiatry for medicine requires more than learning from books and requires the development of attitudes, reducing prejudices and developing observation of behavior. In this context, case-based learning is an innovative teaching methodology, which appears to be effective, contributing to improving student attention and participation. Objective: To implement a new teaching method in psychiatry, with case-based learning (CBL) with video situations and the use of technological resources at a medical school in Brazil. Methodology: Construction of a clinical case, which was recorded in 5 videos with the help of an actress, showing a depressive condition with a manic turn. The case was presented in 2 face-to-face classes, using interactive polls during classes, in August 2022. In the interval between these two classes, virtual activities were also carried out. Student participation, level of satisfaction with the methodology, students' self-confidence with the topics and performance in the test were evaluated. Results: Twenty-one out of fifty students responded to the questionnaire, of which 100% thought that the class methodology was better than a traditional one, 100% considered that the teaching methods used were useful and effective, 95.3% felt confident with the simulation and 100% considered that the teacher used useful resources. The students' main complaint was that they wanted more class time. The students had an average score of 88% on the test. Conclusion: The research results indicated that case-based learning using recorded video cases in psychiatry education had a positive impact on students' levels of engagement, satisfaction, self-confidence and performance.
