MEDICAL EDUCATION IN HEALTHCARE: INNOVATIONS AND CHALLENGES
Keywords:
AI integration, simulation training, flipped classroom, competency frameworks, post-COVID education, healthcare innovationAbstract
Medical education in healthcare is undergoing rapid transformation driven by technological innovations such as AI, virtual reality simulations, and flipped classroom models, alongside post-pandemic adaptations to address clinical exposure gaps and workforce shortages. This IMRAD-structured review synthesizes 20 recent peer-reviewed studies (2023-2026) from databases like PubMed and JMIR, evaluating outcomes including a 20-40% improvement in procedural skills and knowledge retention (SMD=0.64) compared to traditional methods. Results highlight efficacy in competency-based training but reveal challenges like implementation costs and equity issues. Findings advocate for hybrid curricula to prepare future physicians for evolving healthcare demands, with implications for policy and institutional reform.
