The purpose of the present study is to portray the perspectives of current podiatric medical students on motivational factors that encouraged them to pursue the field.
Methods: An online survey was developed and delivered to the student body of a single podiatric medical school. The survey investigated the motivation to pursue podiatric medicine, including first exposure to the field, shadowing experiences, and a variety of motivational factors.
Results: Of 149 students, 81 (54.4%) completed the survey. The three highest-rated reasons for pursuing podiatric medicine were “stable and secure future,” “work-life balance,” and “intellectual satisfaction.” The three most-cited types of first exposure to podiatric medicine were “undergraduate pre-health advisor,” “family member/friend is a podiatrist,” and “form of media other than television, including the Internet.” Shadowing experiences were identified as an important part of developing an interest in pursuing podiatric medicine, especially in the surgical setting.
Conclusions: Understanding the perspectives of current podiatric medical students is important in considering future efforts to promote the profession.Permalink : https://bibliotheque.helb-prigogine.be/opac_css/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id= [article]Exemplaires

[Thésaurus Mesh]PrévalenceRésumé : Background: Hypertension is a highly prevalent condition in the general population, conferring a high risk of significant morbidity and mortality. Associated with the condition are many well-characterized controllable and noncontrollable risk factors. This study aimed to identify the prevalence of hypertension in the outpatient podiatric medical clinic setting and to determine the relevance of hypertension risk factors in this setting.
Methods: A survey tool was created to characterize relevant risk factors, and systolic and diastolic blood pressures were recorded. Descriptive statistics were generated after conclusion of enrollment. Analysis was also performed to determine the relationship between individual risk factors and systolic blood pressure.
Results: Of the 176 patients, 56 (31.8%) had an incidentally high blood pressure at intake, including 18.5% of patients without a known history of hypertension and 38.5% with a known history of hypertension. Three risk factors were found to be significantly associated with increasing systolic blood pressure: weight (P = .022), stress level (P = .017), and presence of renal artery stenosis (P = .021). There was also a near–statistically significant inverse relationship between systolic blood pressure and amount of time spent exercising (P = .068).
Conclusions: Overall, a relatively high prevalence of incidental hypertension was identified, including among patients not previously diagnosed as having hypertension. Consideration of risk factors and awareness of the prevalence of the condition can be useful for practitioners, even as they manage presenting podiatric medical concerns. Future investigations may consider interventional or preventive strategies in the outpatient clinic settingPermalink : https://bibliotheque.helb-prigogine.be/opac_css/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id= [article]Exemplaires
