Objective To explore the effect of applying evidence-based medicine theory to quality management in long-term-system clinical medicine teaching. Methods We introduced the concept of evidence-based quality management system of clinical medicine to the delivery of teaching with Internet-based teaching quality real time supervision system as the core. A special quality scale was used to assess the teaching quality of teachers and the results were analyzed by SPSS 10.0 using u test. Results The system stored 853 280 pieces of data from the years 2001 to 2003. Up to 96.4% (275/285) of the evaluated topics scored over 85 points. Whether the teachers had overseas experience or not and whether their ages were over 45 or not had no significant influence on the teaching quality (P ＞0.05), but their degrees had influence on the teaching quality (P ＜0.05). Conclusion In long-term-system clinical medicine teaching quality management, we should apply the concept and approach of EBM to our practice so that we can ensure that the teaching quality of long-term-system clinical medicine will improve steadily.
ObjectiveTo investigate the basic situation of existing medical English teaching methods and objects, develop medical English course content and teaching methods, and evaluate teaching effectiveness. Methods The existing medical English teaching methods were summarized based on literature retrieval, and both the basic level of medical students and data related to teaching effectiveness were collected by questionnaire surveys. Results Medical English teaching could be optimized by adjusting the content of medical English teaching, increasing the proportion of English teaching, and emphasizing the application of emerging electronic products in extracurricular English learning. Teaching methods could adopt various forms such as flipped classrooms. A questionnaire survey showed that most of the students (64.94%) were not satisfied with their current English level. These students fully recognized the importance of medical English. Based on the above results, medical English courses were offered in two semesters. This course adopts theoretical lectures, small-class teaching and other teaching methods. Scenario simulation and flipped classroom were also used. Conclusion Medical English courses should include medical vocabulary, clinical medical English, vocational medical English and academic medical English. Flipped classroom and other teaching methods should be flexibly applied.
目的 探讨诊断学床旁见习教学中学患关系现状，为提高诊断学床旁教学质量提供应对策略。 方法 采用自行设计问卷，于2010年5月-2011年6月对80名临床医学专业三年级本科生以及同期在内科住院的100例患者分别进行不署名学患关系问卷调查（有效问卷率分别为91.3%和67%），同时对8名带教教师和7名临床主管医生进行个别访谈。 结果 学生问卷调查显示，79.5%的学生曾在床旁教学中遭遇患者不同程度的拒绝或不配合，大多数学生认为有被拒的心理准备和承受力。患者调查显示，82.1%的患者不愿意接受学生问诊查体，58.2%的患者表示即便给予一定经济补偿，也不愿配合教学。而对带教教师及临床主管医师访谈结果显示，当前床旁带教难度大大增加，学患关系紧张。 结论 现阶段学患关系紧张，根据其涉及原因，提出提升医务人员及医学生人文观念，推进医疗、教育体制改革，建立媒体监督机制，开展公众教育等多层面的应对策略，同时提出课程设置、教学模式、师资培养等具体教学应对举措。Objective To explore the present status of the relationship between students and patients in diagnostic bedside teaching, in order to promote the teaching quality. Methods From May 2010 to June 2011, self-made questionnaires were adopted to carry out an anonymous survey among 80 medical students in grade three or above and 100 inpatients to investigate the relationship between the students and the patients(with an effective questionnaire rate of 91.3% and 67% respectively). Eight tutors and 7 physicians concerned were taken in the individual interview. Results The survey showed that 79.5% of the students encountered refusal from patients in bedside teaching, and most of them believed that they had psychological preparation and endurance for the refusal. A total of 82.1% of the patients expressed their unwillingness to accept examination by clinical students, and 58.2% of the patients were unwilling to cooperate in the teaching even with an amount of economic compensation. The tutors and physicians concerned stated that the student-patient relationship was undesirable at present. Conclusions The relationship between students and patients in bedside teaching is strained at present. Based on the complicated reasons, we propose such coping strategies as promoting humanism among medical workers and students, pushing forward the medical and educational reform, building media supervision, developing public education, perfecting course design, teaching style, and cultivation of teachers, and so on.
ObjectiveTo explore the feasibility of introducing student-standardized patients in the teaching reform of medical nursing course. MethodsWe chose four classes of nursing students from grade 2012 between September and December 2014 as the research subjects.Cluster sampling was used to choose two classes of 84 nursing students randomly as trial group, who received student-standardized patients in their practical learning; while the rest 2 classes of 83 students were chosen as control group, who received traditional teaching method.The course scores and the effect evaluation were compared between the two groups. ResultsThe basic knowledge test score of the trial group 31.28±4.81 was not significantly different from that of the control group 32.10±2.15(P > 0.05).The case analysis test score of the trial group 54.36±3.45 was significantly higher than that of the control group 43.12±1.37(P < 0.05).The communication ability, health education ability, skill operation ability and professional quality score of nursing students in the trial group were also significantly higher than those in the control group (P < 0.05). ConclusionIntroducing student-standardized patients in practical teaching of medical nursing can improve the teaching effect and students' comprehensive ability.
Objective To explore the effectiveness of situational experiential teaching mode in emergency internship teaching. Methods Interns from the Department of Emergency, Jiangyou Fifth People’s Hospital from July 2022 to May 2023 were selected as the research subjects. The interns were randomly divided into a trial group and a control group using a random number table method. The trial group adopted a situational experiential teaching mode, while the control group adopted a traditional teaching mode. Theoretical knowledge testing, clinical comprehensive ability assessment, and clinical information feedback were used to evaluate the effectiveness of different teaching methods. Results A total of 90 interns were included, with 45 people in each group, aged 18-23 years old. Both groups consist of 18 clinical medicine students and 27 clinical nursing students. There was no statistically significant difference in academic performance in school between the two groups of interns (P>0.05). The theoretical knowledge test score (92.98±2.71 vs. 85.29±6.24), clinical comprehensive ability assessment score (90.52±2.58 vs. 83.35±5.25) and clinical feedback (44 excellent and 1 fine in the trial group vs. 25 excellent, 5 fine, and 15 poor in the control group) of the trial group were better than those in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusions The situational experiential teaching mode can enhance interns’ learning interest, improve memory effectiveness, help students master theoretical knowledge, and enhance their comprehensive abilities in clinical evaluation and decision-making. It is worth promoting in clinical practice.
Objective To investigate the effect of training courses of evidence-based medicine (EBM) on the knowledge, skill, attitude and behavior of medical postgraduates and to explore the barriers to evidence-based practice (EBP), so as to provide knowledge to improve further EBM teaching and EBP. Methods A total of 110 medical postgraduates of Sichuan University who selected EBM courses in the autumn semester of 2004 were given questionnaires that combined both open and closed questions. The KAB (knowledge, attitude and behavior) of EBM and barriers to EBP were compared before and after the training courses. Results Differences were observed in KAB of EBM and barriers to EBP after the training courses, compared to the assessments done before the courses. In “Knowledge”: there was a significant increase in the understanding of specific terms in EBM after the training courses (75% of the items showed a statistically significant improvement). This was especially marked for “absolute risk”, “systematic review”, “meta-analysis” and “publication bias” (Plt;0.01). We also found an improvement in familiarity with medical search engines (Plt;0.05). In “Attitude”: the mean scores for most items (55%) were relatively high both before and after the training courses (gt;4), and a significant improvement was observed in 2 items. These were “Strong evidence is lacking to support most of the interventions I use with my patients” and “EBP needs to take into account patient preferences” (Plt;0.01). The mean scores of 2 items were relatively low both before and after the training courses (lt;3). These were “the adoption of EBP places an reasonable demand on physical therapists” and “EBP does not take into account the limitations of my clinical setting”. Another 2 items had mean scores close to 5: “I need to increase the use of evidence in my daily practice” and “I am interested in learning or improving the skills necessary to incorporate EBP into my practice”. In terms of “Behavior”: the medical postgraduates continued not to think highly of the use of literature after the training courses. About 60% of the postgraduates did not read any literature related to their specialties at all. Although searching of MEDLINE and other electronic databases was relatively frequent (gt;6 times/month: 60.3% before training and 65.7% after training), using professional literature and research findings in the process of clinical decision-making was not equal (gt;6 times/month: 29% before training and 35.1% after training). No significant difference was observed in applying clinical practice guidelines before and after the training courses. As for “Barriers”: the postgraduates considered “poor ability to critically appraise literature” as the most important barrier both before and after the training courses. The second and third most important barriers were different compared to after the training courses. The barrier of “lack of research skills” was larger than that of “lack of information resources” before the training courses, but after that the course, the order of these was reversed. Conclusion The knowledge of medical postgraduates increased significantly after the current training courses of EBM. Some improvement was also found in attitude and behavior. The top three barriers to EBP were “Poor ability to critically appraise literature”, “Lack of information resources”, and “Lack of research skills”
