Application of Mini-CEX combined with simulation teaching + case-based learning in pediatric clinical teaching / 中华医学教育探索杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the effect of mini-clinical evaluation exercise (Mini-CEX) combined with simulation teaching + case-based learning (CBL) in pediatric clinical teaching.Methods:A total of 60 medical students who practiced in Department of Pediatrics, Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical College from August 2019 to August 2020 were selected as the research objects. According to different teaching methods, they were divided into control group ( n=30) and observation group ( n=30). The control group received traditional teaching, and the observation group received Mini-CEX combined with simulated teaching + CBL. The assessment results, comprehensive ability of medical interview, critical thinking ability and teaching satisfaction of the two groups were compared. SPSS 20.0 was performed for t-test and Chi-square test. Results:The test scores and total scores of the observation group were significantly higher than those of the control group ( P<0.05). After teaching, the Mini-CEX scores, the CTDI-CV (critical thinking disposition inventory Chinese version) scores and the total scores of the two groups increased significantly, and the above scores were significantly higher in the observation group than the control group ( P<0.05). The scores of the teaching program satisfaction questionnaire in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The application of Mini-CEX combined with simulation teaching + CBL in pediatric clinical teaching can help to cultivate the medical interview ability, clinical practice ability and critical thinking ability of interns, improve the examination results, and improve the teaching satisfaction.
