Professionalism in the Training of Medical Specialists: an Integrative Literature Review

ABSTRACT

Introduction

The construct professionalism is increasingly being recognized as an important component of medical education; fundamental to the physician’s role in society Objective: To group in a concise and systemized way the information available in scientific productions on the concept of medical professionalism and its applications in medical residency programs.

Methods

A total of 85 articles were found in 2018, of which 13 were excluded for duplication using the Mendeley platform. Of the 72 remaining articles, 35 were excluded for not answering the research question. Of the 37 articles selected for reading of the abstract, eight were not available, leaving 29 articles. After reading all articles for the final selection, 11 articles were excluded. Six papers did not fulfill the goals of the research, and five were opinion articles.

Results

The production included 18 articles, from which analysis emerged three thematic categories: (a) professionalism: multidimensional construct; (b) teaching of professionalism: role modeling and the curriculum; (c) evaluation of professionalism: multiple strategies in the curriculum. The most frequently cited domains were: altruism, responsibility, care, teamwork, self-control, ethical principles and clinic excellence. Ten articles highlighted the importance of role modeling by preceptors and members of the health team in the Medical Residency Program for teaching professionalism. Regarding the most commonly used strategies for the selection, feedback practices and the OSCE were highlighted in scenarios to evaluate the domains of professionalism.

Conclusion

Professionalism is a dynamic construct that is worked on in the form of teaching and assessment in Medical Residency Programs. There is no consensus on the professionalism concept, and thus, multiple strategies are used for the teaching, among which role modeling can be highlighted. The teaching of medical professionalism, as a construct, in the training of specialists can reduce lapses and foster assistance based on respect for the autonomy of people and social responsibility.

INTRODUCTION

Professionalism has become increasingly acknowledged as an important component of medical training (¹), essential in the physician’s role in society (²). In 1999, the Accreditation Council on Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) and the American Board of Medical Specialties adopted professionalism as one of the core competencies to be developed by physicians. The other competencies are: interpersonal and communication skills, practice-based learning and development, patient care, medical knowledge and systems-based practice (³). In 2013, the ACGME and the American Board of Pathology formulated 23 of its 27 milestones, of which six were dedicated to professionalism (⁴). In 2017, the ACGME program about professionalism was updated (³).

Despite its relevance to generalist and specialist medical training, there is no homogeneity as regards the concept of professionalism, which hinders its consolidation and standardization of strategies that encompass it as a component of the formal curriculum, as well as of the hidden curriculum (⁵). Although not formally taught, the hidden curriculum is responsible for behaviours and role modelling (⁶). It is therefore imperative that physicians and preceptors also shape the professional behaviours that they are trying to teach (⁵). Actions in this regard, however, demand a clear understanding of the dimensions to be incorporated into medical professionalism.

In view of the relevance of this theme to specialist medical training and of the lack of uniformity in the conceptual understanding of the term medical professionalism, the following questions emerged: what does the specialized literature understand by medical professionalism? How is professionalism being developed in the training of the resident physician? Therefore, this integrative review proposes to succinctly and systematically gather the information available in scientific productions about the concept of medical professionalism and its application in medical residency programs.

METHODS

In order to obtain a synthesis of the results from relevant and globally recognised studies, the method of integrative literature review was adopted (⁷). The search was guided by the question: how has the construct of medical professionalism been defined by scientific literature and how has it been developed in the training of specialists?

The survey was conducted in May 2018, consulting the electronic bibliographic databases EBSCO host, Literatura Latino-Americana e do Caribe em Ciências da Saúde (Lilacs) and Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online (Medline) via PubMed for the period from 2013 to 2018. The descriptors used were obtained from the Health Science Descriptors (DeCS) or from the Medical Subject Headings (MeSH). In English they were: Professionalism (DeCS and MeSH), Education, Medical (DeCS), Education, Medical, Graduate (MeSH), Internship and Residency (DeCS and MeSH). The Boolean expression AND was used, always crossing the first descriptor with one of the last three. In the Medline database, the English descriptors were used. In the other databases, the search was conducted with the descriptors in English and their corresponding terms in Portuguese. Observation studies were included (cohort, control case and cross-sectional studies) indexed in the last five years in the selected databases that answered the research question. Opinion articles, editorials, letters to editors and comments were excluded.

Eighty-five articles were found, 13 of which were excluded as duplicates through the Mendeley platform. Of the remaining 72 articles, 35 were excluded for not answering the research question. Of the 37 articles selected through reading of the abstracts, eight were not available in their entirety, leaving 29 articles. Following the complete reading of all the articles for the definitive selection, 11 were eliminated. Of those publications, six failed to correspond to the research objectives and five were opinion articles. The flowchart showing how the articles were selected for the integrative review can be found in Figure 1.

FIGURE 1
Flowchart of excluded and selected articles in 2018

Three thematic categories were ascertained: (a) professionalism: multidimensional construct; (b) teaching of professionalism: role modeling and of the curriculum; (c) evaluation of professionalism: multiple strategies in the curriculum. To facilitate the data collection, an instrument was developed that contained author, year of publication, the concept of professionalism, domains and modes of teaching and evaluation of professionalism. The data were groups according to Chart 1.

RESULTS

The results demonstrate the relevance of this theme to medical education. The concept of professionalism is applied heterogeneously among medical specialities. During residency programs, the construct is approached in the form of domains, which translate behaviours that need to be observed, taught and assessed, by means of multiple tools. Below we present in themes, the results of the research conducted.

Professionalism: multidimensional construct

Most of the articles (¹¹) were published in the years 2016 and 2017. The most commonly cited domains of professionalism were: altruism, responsibility, care, teamwork, self-control, ethical principles and clinical excellence. The domains respect, honesty, honour, integrity, confidentiality and commitment were grouped under ethical principles.

The domains found are partially included in the ACGME, responsible for the certification of medical residency programs, which incorporate in their practices teaching and assessment strategies in ethics and professionalism. According to that Council, the role of the resident physician should include ethics, honesty, contribution to the learning environment, conflict resolution, professional language, full care and protection of patient confidentiality. In his practice, he should also demonstrate: compassion, integrity, response to patient needs in relation to his own interest, respect for diversity, privacy and autonomy, accountability to the patients, to society and to the profession, sensitivity and ability to give individualized responses (³).

In relation to the concepts, eight articles mentioned their own definitions ^{(8,14,16-19,20,23)}.

The other publications did not define professionalism ^{(9,11,13,15,26)} or mentioned other authors’ concepts ^{(10,12,21,24,27)}, leaving the construct with no consensus among medical specialists.

Teaching of professionalism: role models and the curriculum

Nine articles highlighted the importance of role models represented by preceptors and members of the health team in the medical residency program for the teaching of professionalism ^{(13-15,17,18,20,21,24,27).}

The way in which professionalism is taught in specialist medical training affects behaviours in their professional activity after training, generating satisfaction for the program and the society. However, unprofessional behaviours, whether modulated or not, can threaten the patient’s safety (²⁹). The ACGME recommends teaching professionalism through role modeling, case studies on ethics and professionalism, journal clubs, videos and portfolios (³).

According to Cruess and Cruess (³⁰) role modeling constitutes the main strategy for conveying values in the teaching of professionalism. The informal or hidden curriculum, which is learned through experience and observation, also exerts some influence, since it favours the development of a reflective practice in the program (³¹).

The literature review demonstrated that most the studies develop the teaching of professionalism also through formative feedback, multiple source or 360⁰feedback, case studies, readings on the theme, workshops, discussion sessions about clinical cases, elements of the hidden and informal curriculum, discussions in small groups, interactive workshops, discussion of clinical cases, videos with cases that give rise to ethical and professional discussion ^{(8- 12,14,16,19,20,21,26,27)}.The teaching of professionalism through observation of professional or unprofessional behaviours in case studies has been a potential tool in the training of the future professiona (²⁷). Feedback is a frequently used strategy in medical education, contributing to the training of several specialities ^{(10,11,14,19,20,23,24)}.

Evaluation of professionalism: multiple strategies in the curriculum

In the evaluation of professionalism in medical residency, tools such as written test and online questionnaires (survey monkey) are used ^(17,24,27). The behavioural evaluation uses strategies in real and simulated environments. There are mentions of direct observation (¹⁴) and Objective Structured Clinical Evaluations (OSCE), which assess the domains of professionalism in settings ^(10,16,20). More than one feedback strategy is also highlighted in the evaluation, such as multiple source feedback and formative feedback (¹²).

An innovative study in the assessment and remediation of lapses in professionalism involved the development of a mobile platform in accordance with the domains of professionalism, accompanied by immediate feedback (²³). Two articles made no mention of the mode of assessing professionalism in the medical residency program ^(9,13). In the medical residency programs, the adoption of more than one resident assessment and self-assessment strategy is recommended (²⁰).

DISCUSSION

As the results demonstrate, to define medical professionalism is a complex task due to the difficulty in determining the expected conduct of a physician nowadays (³²). Determining the domains that compose the medical professionalism construct was aimed at shedding more light on these issues (³). In this regard, two points deserve reflection: the scope of the construct and the cultural adjustments that pervade it (³³). The broad scope of the term medical professionalism hinders its comprehensive evaluation, leading studies to work with the domains in an isolated manner (¹²,¹⁶,²⁷).

Although such studies develop the construct in a fragmented fashion, this is not made clear in their justifications, which contributes to the lack of understanding around the theme. Furthermore, the studies do not address regional and cultural nuances capable of interfering in perspectives on professional behaviours, attitudes and values (³³). Therefore, studies into medical professionalism and its evaluation need to be more clearly positioned in their educational, regional and cultural contexts (³⁴) in order to afford more transparency to the cultural flexibility required to consolidate a global approach to professionalism (³³).

Another key point of the results is the importance of role models in professional training (³³). It is worth highlighting here that, despite medical professionalism being a recent construct, there has always been a tacit social rule regarding the expected behaviour of physicians, and the transmission of this standard of attitudes has been consolidated through role modeling, even before it was named as such (³²). The importance of teaching medical professionalism in the training of specialists partly derives from the contradictions between the attitudinal training of medical professionals over recent decades and contemporary social demands. The disparity has demanded self-regulation functions of the medical profession, pervading the teaching of professionalism (³⁵). However, the current teachers and preceptors were trained according to the previous model. Hence, the teaching and evaluation of medical professionalism in the training of specialists also require continuing work with the teachers and preceptors. This work requires sensitizing those involved to the importance of constant self-critique and surveillance, at the risk of trainee physicians failing to find in the practice of their models the concepts taught therein (²⁵).

CONCLUSION

Contemporary social demands require attitudinal and relational changes in medical professionals. In this regard, the teaching of medical professionalism as a construct, in the training of specialists can reduce lapses and promote a care guided by respect for people’s autonomy and for social accountability. The teaching and assessment of medical professionalism in the training of specialists, however, are still incipient. The few studies in this area still address the construct in a fragmented manner. Moreover, it is necessary to make the sociocultural position of these studies clearer and to strengthen the work with teachers and preceptors so as to promote positive role modeling.
