Deliver worldwide access to clinical case remote learning for medical students and schools, powered by UK medical school expertise

在新冠肺炎疫情对个人对个人医学教学施加限制的推动下，英国医学院通过医学院理事会组织的合作努力，广泛采用了基于胶囊临床病例的远程学习平台(https://info.capsule.ac.uk).CAPSULE已由布莱顿和苏塞克斯医学院和领先的电子学习解决方案提供商Ocasta开发。胶囊是一种独特的资源，因为它包含650多个临床病例，涉及3500个问题，包括内科、外科、儿科、精神病学、治疗学、妇产科、全科和专业研究。内容由来自英国所有专科和学校的资深临床医生组成的编辑委员会提供支持，并通过核心审查、病例编辑和选择性病例添加的滚动过程来保持积极和相关的内容。通过网络和移动设备访问病例，跟踪评分、队列比较和进展，以确保学习完全嵌入。采用该技术已使2.4万多名英国学生能够远程继续他们的临床学习，学校为未来几个月的进一步破坏做好准备，同时还通过高级分析获得对学生进展的新理解。在英国部署期间，很明显，支持临床教学的迫切需要是一个世界性的问题，该项目的重点是这一未得到满足的需求。自2020年5月以来，包括澳大利亚、新西兰、爱尔兰、迪拜、加纳、塞浦路斯、孟加拉国、马来西亚、新加坡和马拉维在内的多个国家的学生和医学院对Capsage感兴趣。获得高质量医疗资源的机会仍然很少，而为这种获得提供资金的能力差别很大。我们的项目旨在增加CASPEST的功能和可扩展性，以支持和支持全球范围内的部署，考虑到这些广泛的资源和提供全球支持的困难。CASPEST的全球推广还将向广泛的受众展示英国医学院的技能，并支持广泛和多样化的地理区域的医学教育的可持续性。世界各地的医疗专业人员供应面临压力，胶囊公司有机会帮助缓解短缺，同时提高各地的标准。

Driven by restrictions placed on person to person medical teaching by the COVID-19 pandemic UK medical schools have through a collaborative effort organised by the Medical Schools Council widely adopted the CAPSULE clinical case based remote learning platform (https://info.capsule.ac.uk).CAPSULE has been developed by the Brighton & Sussex Medical School and Ocasta, a leading eLearning solutions provider. CAPSULE is a unique resource as it contains over 650 clinical cases with 3,500 questions, including medicine, surgery, paediatrics, psychiatry, therapeutics, obstetrics and gynaecology, general practice and professional studies. Content is supported by an editorial board of senior clinicians from all specialities and from schools across the UK, with a rolling process of core review, case editing and selective case additions to maintain active and relevant content. Access to cases is via the web and mobile devices with scoring, cohort comparisons and progress tracked to ensure learning is fully embedded.The adoption has enabled more than 24,000 UK students to continue their clinical studies remotely and schools to prepare for further disruption in the coming months, while also gaining new understandings of student progress through advanced analytics. During the UK deployment it became apparent that the urgent need to support clinical teaching is a worldwide issue and it is on this unmet need the project is focused.Since May 2020 interest in CAPSULE has been received from students and medical schools across multiple countries including Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, Dubai, Ghana, Cyprus, Bangladesh, Malaysia, Singapore and Malawi. Access to high quality medical resources remains scarce while the ability to fund such access varies widely. Our project is aimed at adding functionality and scalability to CAPSULE to enable and support a worldwide deployment, given these wide varieties in resources and the difficulty in providing global support.The global rollout of CAPSULE will also serve to showcase the skills of UK medical schools to a broad audience and support the sustainability of medical education across a broad and diverse geography. The availability of medical professionals around the world is under pressure, CAPSULE has an opportunity to help alleviate the shortfall while improving standards everywhere.
