DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) proposes to develop, implement, and evaluate an online case-based cultural competency curriculum for practicing physicians, residents, and medical students. The proposed curriculum draws on our existing expertise and programs and will enable us to address disparities in the occurrence, management, and outcomes of cardiovascular disease in diverse populations. Specific Aims: (1) Development: using known principles of educational theory and recognized elements of cultural competency, we will select the core elements of cultural competency, translate into cases, develop and tailor online case-based interactive modules, test in the field, and revise. (2) Implementation and Training: we will implement and evaluate the curriculum among: (2a) practicing physicians in the community, (2b) internal medicine residents, and (2c) medical students. (3) Dissemination: online and at professional meetings. Via established educational and research networks, the Alabama and Mississippi Practice-Based Networks (PBN), physicians will receive the case-based modules. Methods: We will use nominal group technique to identify and select the core elements of cultural competency. Concurrently, we will obtain guidance from leaders in the field. The modules will describe the history and condition of the patient, provide interactive features tailored to the educational need, and own personal needs. The modules will also include culturally sensitive patient education information. The measurement and evaluation tools will be included in the modules. We will evaluate the curriculum by survey, pre and post testing, and frequency of use of online programs. Significance: The ultimate goal is to improve the cultural competence of physicians by increasing cultural awareness, knowledge, and respect of differences in cultural perspectives. It will also enhance the ability of health care providers to deliver culturally sensitive care. The online format will facilitate the portability of the curriculum to other settings, institutions, and health care professionals.

描述(由申请人提供)： 阿拉巴马大学伯明翰分校(UAB)建议为实习医生、住院医生和医学生开发、实施和评估基于案例的在线文化能力课程。拟议的课程利用了我们现有的专业知识和计划，将使我们能够解决不同人群在心血管疾病的发生、管理和结果方面的差异。 具体目标：(1)发展：利用已知的教育理论原理和公认的文化能力要素，我们将选择文化能力的核心要素，将其转化为案例，开发和定制基于案例的在线互动模块，在实地进行测试，并进行修改。(2)实施和培训：对社区执业医师、内科住院医师、医学生进行课程实施和评估。(3)传播：在线和专业会议上。通过已建立的教育和研究网络，阿拉巴马州和密西西比州基于实践的网络(PBN)，医生将收到基于病例的模块。方法：采用名义群技术对文化胜任力的核心要素进行识别和筛选。同时，我们将从该领域的领导人那里获得指导。这些模块将描述患者的病史和病情，提供根据教育需求量身定做的互动功能，以及自己的个人需求。这些模块还将包括文化敏感的患者教育信息。测量和评估工具将包括在模块中。我们将通过调查、前测试和后测试以及使用在线程序的频率来评估课程。意义：最终目标是通过增加文化意识、知识和尊重文化视角中的差异来提高医生的文化能力。它还将增强卫生保健提供者提供文化敏感护理的能力。在线形式将有助于将课程移植到其他环境、机构和医疗保健专业人员。
