UBC Intern Research Preceptor Orientation
Learning Objectives
2
Describe the three guiding principles of the dietetic internship research module
Describe the role of the intern research team members (preceptor, interns, internship coordinator, research advisory committee, DEC)
Explain why the “most desirable project types” provide a positive learning environment
Identify solutions for common challenges with the dietetic intern research experience
Introduction
3
Who are you? (name please!)What is your experience with the research
module?What do you want to learn today? (e.g. how
often to be in contact with my students, how I help the students complete their ethics applications if I have never done this myself, how I get involved with the research module if I am not part of a core site)
Guiding Principles

Document & disseminate findings
Close-out project with UBC & local ethics; complete Appendix 6 & submit to CSIC
Case Study Qs
12
1. What is the project type (pg 4 RM)?2. Is the population and data easily accessible?3. Can the data be collected in 3 days or less?4. Is the project eligible for expedited review?-------5. If you answer NO to any of these questions,
what ideas do you have to modify the project so you can answer YES to all of the above?
Case study 1: Identifying the nutrition-related care issues for
patients with gastrointestinal (GI) cancerswho were referred to a BCCA dietitian in 2009.
13
Retrospective review of GI Ca patients’ charts seen by an RD in 2009
290 electronic charts to reviewInter-rater reliability: interns, PI and one
co-investigator will all trial data collection procedures from the same 20 charts. Data collection discrepancies will be noted, the technique reviewed and retested with 20 new charts.
2 interns will work on this project
Case study 2: Nutritional Adequacy of Vulnerable Adolescents
in Prince George Licensed Youth Residential Care Homes (RCH)
14
Survey of teenagers living in RCHs in PG60 youth live in 15 RCHs 50% response rate expectedValidated, self-administered dietary assessment
tool to determine macronutrient intakesSurveys will be left in the RCH for youth to pick
up, complete, and put into a sealed box somewhere inside the home
Interns will pick up the box to analyze data one week later
2 interns will work on this project
