Abstract
A Questionnaire survey was conducted on the participants of the “Physical Assessment Course (Advanced Course)” before and after the course to verify the change in their understanding of physical assessment (PA). Additionally, a followup survey was conducted to clarify the PA implementation status after the course. The results showed a significantly improved understanding of the vital sign measurement technique in all items in 15 participants. In the followup survey, 13 of the 15 participants responded, and 4 participants (31%) conducted PA on patients, with “general inspection” and “blood pressure assessment” as the most commonly performed procedures. Three of the four participants stated their involvement in “side effect prevention” in terms of their proper use of drugs. Meanwhile, the main reasons for the 9 (69%) participants who were unable to conduct PA were “not in an environment where PA can be conducted” or “no patients for conducted of PA.” These results suggested that this course has certain educational effectiveness with pharmacists’ PA and approximately 30% of the participants conducted PA after the course.
