ABSTRACT
【Objective】 To investigate the resource allocation status of blood testing laboratories in 14 blood stations in Gansu Province, explore the impact of differences in basic conditions on the comprehensive testing ability of laboratories, so as to promote the homogenization and standardization of blood screening capacity in blood stations in Gansu and improve blood safety and effectivenes. 【Methods】 An evaluation index system of laboratory resource allocation was constructed and a question-naire was designed. The data of human resources, infrastructure and key equipment of 14 blood stations were collected. The entropy weight -TOPSIS method was used to evaluate and rank the resource allocation of 14 blood stations. 【Results】 In the comprehensive evaluation of blood testing laboratory resource allocation in 14 blood stations in Gansu, the top three were laboratories A, B and I, and the last three were laboratories G, M and J. On the whole, the main issue was unreasonable structure of human resources: most laboratories had unreasonable age structure; except for Laboratory A, there was no personnel with bachelor's degree or above in laboratories; most laboratories had not established a team with intermediate professional titles. In terms of infrastructure, the size of seven laboratories could not meet the needs of modern laboratory testing, and all eight blood stations had no spare nucleic acid laboratories nor a mutual spare laboratory with other blood stations As for the key equipment, 5 laboratories had no automatic blood grouping diagnostic instrument, 5 laboratories only had one set of enzyme immunoassay detection system, 3 laboratories had no spare equipment for the key equipment, which means if the equipment failure could not be repaired in time, the release of results would be affected. 【Conclusion】 There were significant differences in human resources, infrastructure and key equipment of blood testing laboratories in 14 blood stations in Gansu, which had a great impact on laboratory testing capacity and subsequent development. It is suggested that governments at all levels and health administrative departments optimize the input of laboratory resource allocation according to the blood collection volume of blood stations to gradually narrow the differences in resource distribution between different regions, improve the degree of laboratory automation and optimize the personnel structure, so as to build high-quality and efficient blood testing laboratories and ensure the safety of clinical blood use.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the training effect of the case-based learning (CBL) teaching method on post competency of medical students. Methods Four classes of students majoring in nursing in China Medical University were enrolled and divided into experimental group and control group, with two classes in each group. In the teaching of medical chemistry, the CBL teaching method was adopted for the experimental group and the traditional teaching method was adopted for the control group, with the same teacher and teaching materials. Questionnaire survey and final examination were performed to assess the effect of the CBL teaching method on post competency of medical students, and SPSS 20.0 software was used for data analysis. Results The results of the questionnaire survey showed that the experimental group had better assessment indices of post competency. The results of the final examination showed that the experimental group had a significantly higher mean score of medical chemistry than the control group [(73.5 ±10.3) vs. (68.1 ±9.1)]. Conclusion The application of the CBL teaching method in medical chemistry can effectively improve the learning outcomes of medical students and train their post competency, and therefore, it holds promise for application in the teaching of basic medicine.
