ABSTRACT
This project starts with the teaching of clinical anatomy for eight-year medical students, selects specialists to enter the courses according to the content of clinical anatomy, and explores the deep integration of basic and clinical education. This study used the self-made questionnaire to evaluate the effect of the integrated teaching model, and Likert scale was used to score. Meanwhile, the correlation between the scores of each question and total points was analyzed with the item analysis. Moreover, we assessed the principal components through the exploratory factor analysis. The results showed that more than 95% questioned students thought the preclinical education integrated with clinical medicine teaching model is necessary and practical, which can assist medical students in the anatomical structure learning combined with clinical disease, and meanwhile cultivate students' clinical thinking. Only fewer than 10% thought it can connect the basic knowledge and clinical cases effectively, and over 35% thought there are difficulties. Additionally, more than half students (54%) hold the negative attitude which clinicians can't completely replace basic teachers in teaching. Our finding suggests that the integrated teaching model is attractive and feasible. Nonetheless, clinicians can’t replace preclinical teachers completely in the clinical anatomy education yet.
