Abstract：
BACKGROUND:The AAMC developed 13 Core Entrustable Professional Activities (EPAs) for graduating medical students. EPA 5 is: Document a clinical encounter in the patient record. Our goal was to develop an assessment rubric and gather evidence to support its validity in measuring progress towards entrustability. METHODS:A rubric was developed for EPA 5. During the 2017 surgery clerkship, 57 students wrote a note for each of two standardized patient (SP) encounters. These notes were prospectively collected and assessed by two physician raters. Messick's validity framework was used to gather validity data. RESULTS:Inter-rater reliability with two raters was excellent, ICC = 0.86 (ICC 95%, confidence interval (CI) 0.80-0.90) for overall note score. Correlation between note items and SP checklists ranged 0.39-0.46 (p < 0.05) and between note items and clinical evaluations 0.28-0.39 (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS:There is initial reliability evidence supporting the use of our rubric for assessing progress towards entrustability of EPA 5.
