Publication Type: Abstract Abstract: Objectives: Personal digital assistants (PDAs) are ubiquitous in practice; therefore, all of our third year pharmacy students are provided a PDA. Yet, the educational benefit of PDAs during advanced practice experiences (APPEs) is unknown. Are PDAs used, and if so, on which rotations and for what purposes? We explored these questions to delineate where and how PDAs are used in a dual pathway program. Methods: All graduating students in the campus and distance pathways voluntarily completed a questionnaire that asked them to identify APPEs on which they used PDAs, the frequency of use, and reasons the PDAs were used. If students indicated they did not use their PDA, they were asked why. Additionally, students were asked to identify how much they agreed with statements describing the utility of PDAs on APPEs. Responses were tabulated and compared (Fisher’s Exact Test) between the pathways to explore similarities and differences. Results: Seventy-one (66%) campus and 36 (72%) distance students completed the questionnaire. Sixty-one percent of campus respondents stated that they had at least one APPE during which they did not use their PDA versus 36% of the distance students (p=0.2). If PDAs were used, they were accessed >3 times per day by most students. PDAs were used most often on required APPEs and specifically for drug information purposes. Nearly all students either agreed or strongly agreed that PDAs were useful. Implications: PDAs were useful during APPEs as a source of drug information, but utilization was not as widespread as anticipated.
