An Interesting Result of a Qualitative Research: Academic Exhaustion Barrier to Professionalism in Medical Students

Résumé

Abstract Background: Clinical education is a vital part of the curriculum in medical education. Some studies showed that dominant values changed during education, and some negative values might replace positive ones. In this regard, this study aimed to explore various aspects of the barrier to professionalism in clinical medical education. By describing the experiences that interns had as educational outcomes during their years of education, and in the clinical setting of their patients, efforts were made to obtain an image of what was happening and to take some steps towards reducing these shortcomings and move towards training more efficient physicians with higher qualifications by providing necessary strategies to educational planners. Method: This was a qualitative study conducted with the content analysis method. The research population consisted of the students of Iran's two most important medical schools in 2018. A total of 34 interviews with 23 participants were done, each lasting 30 to 90 minutes and data analysis performed with Atlas ti7 software. Results: Two hundred forty-eight original codes were extracted from the research data, which were classified under the theme of "Academic Exhaustion" and the four following categories: "stressful environment, "human conflict," "Poor Inter professional collaboration," and "emotional exhaustion." Conclusion: What was understood from all categories was called "Academic Exhaustion." According to the results of this study, it can be admitted that having full knowledge of the factors influencing professionalism from the viewpoint of stakeholders can improve the environmental and organizational conditions to prevent professional misconduct.
