ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the role of constructivism teaching theory combined with problem-based learning (PBL) teaching mode in the training of new nurses in the department of gastroenterology.Methods:A total of 27 newly recruited nurses in the Department of Gastroenterology in West China Hospital of Sichuan University from August 2018 to August 2019 were selected as the control group, and traditional teaching was adopted. In addition, 24 newly recruited nurses from September 2019 to September 2020 were selected as the research group, using constructivism teaching theory combined with PBL teaching mode. After the training, the teaching effect was compared between the two groups through the assessment results and the training method scores. SPSS 19.0 was used for t test. Results:The research group's newly recruited nurses' theoretical evaluation scores [(95.08±5.61) vs. (91.63±5.27)] and practical skills operation evaluation scores [(94.30±7.22) vs. (87.13±6.84)] were both higher than those of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the newly recruited nurses of the research group believed that the combination of constructivism teaching theory and PBL teaching could improve clinical thinking ability, analysis and problem-solving ability, and the degree of integration of theory and practice, mobilize the enthusiasm of autonomous learning, enhance autonomous learning ability, and improve communication ability, cultivate teamwork ability, stimulate interest in learning, improve work confidence and training satisfaction, with statistical significance ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The combination of constructivism teaching theory and PBL teaching mode is beneficial to the training of newly recruited nurses in the department of gastroenterology to independently construct a theoretical framework of knowledge, improve comprehensive ability, and make a useful exploration for the training of newly recruited nurses.
