GARCIA VALENCIA, Luis Fernando. Changing the Educational Paradigm: Educational Strategy Proposal for Vascular Surgery Teaching-Learning. Pilot Test. Rev. Med [online]. 2019, vol.27, n.2, pp.35-45.  Epub Nov 26, 2022. ISSN 0121-5256.  https://doi.org/10.18359/rmed.4845.

The concern about numerous general practitioners' scarce knowledge of vascular pathology has led to questioning whether the traditional teaching method in the field of vascular surgery and angiology at the Universidad Militar Nueva Granada (UMNG) is the most appropriate and practical to build lasting and applicable knowledge. This paper discusses the results of implementing information and communication technologies (ICT) in the teaching-learning of knowledge of vascular pathologies, particularly the most frequent ones in clinical practice, that the general practitioner should have. It is a virtual classroom model with modules that present the current curriculum topics of the Vascular Pathologies and Angiology subject of the UMNG Medicine Program, following the flipped classroom model. The results include significant improvement in the marks of the students evaluated after completing the virtual module, whether they had already done a rotation in the Vascular Surgery service or not. The assessment of this pilot test was carried out to determine the effectiveness of implementing a virtual module applicable on a larger scale in the future to the basic training of general practitioners at the UMNG School of Medicine.
