Table 4. Sample responses to the question “How can we improve the physiology education sessions?”.

1. … better to make a short presentation by one of the consultants/registrars…”
2. “The session per se is a great thing! The problem is more that in 6 months I was able to participate only twice (due to shift work, compensation).”
3. “Topics are often too complex. It would be much easier if the residents were able to choose the topics by themselves and would be more practice-relevant in terms of skills training.”
4. “More discussion at the end with consultants and registrars. The session is enhanced by the presence of certain consultants!”
5. “More basics, then into the depth of the topic, because residents start at a different level”
6. “Do not use [published] papers for preparation, but rather basic physiology books or intensive care medical books. As problem-based learning. Take some more time, e.g. 30 min”
7. “Mostly the session consists of a presentation. Discussions would be desirable, but hardly occur. At the end of the presentation discuss an imaginary case …”
8. “Level may sometimes be a bit higher. Discussion should be sought more actively, with question slides at the end”
9. “more practical relevance”
10. “I think the session is good, and it is meaningful that the topics are selected according to the education-level of the lecturer”
11. “Session in the morning. Preferably right after the handover from the nightshift”
