Date: Weds 19 October 17.00-18.30
Location: Room 944 UCL Institute of Education, 20 Bedford Way, London, WC1H 0NR
Speaker: Dr Sophie Park, Senior Lecturer in Primary Care at UCL Medical School
This presentation will focus on some of the methodological challenges and developments we tackled during this review. We will discuss how these relate more broadly to doing systematic reviews in clinical education, and producing BEME reviews. The systematic review produced a descriptive review summarising placements reported in the literature. We also conducted 2 in-depth syntheses. One used quantitative comparative studies to explore questions about the effectiveness of placements. A second in-depth synthesis used qualitative studies to explore the theoretical and conceptual underpinnings of placements reported in the literature, using a meta-ethnography approach. As a second stage of the review, we took the findings of the meta-ethnography to patient and student participants, to embed patient and public participation (PPI) into the research synthesis process. We audio-transcribed their interpretations and responses to the review, then used these to further refine the models. In this presentation, we will discuss both the findings and methodologies used during this review.
