Objective: The aim of this report is to describe lessons learned with a distance learning activity in substitution for in-class study on the management of multimorbidity.
Methods: A total of 140 fifth-year medical students received a pre-recorded slide show with narration and were asked to return by e-mail 3 take-home messages of what they had learned about multimorbidity. Students’ learning is presented by means of a mind map.
Results: Correct take-home messages were returned in 95.2% of the cases. This distance learning activity increased students’ knowledge regarding the topic multimorbidity.
Conclusion: A pre-recorded slide show with the narration was a valid substitute for the in-class multimorbidity seminar in a context where person-to- person contact was prohibited in the first wave of the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic.
