Application of the flipped classroom combined with 3D Body anatomy software in ultrasound-guided thoracic paravertebral block training / 中华医学教育探索杂志

Ultrasound-guided thoracic nerve block plays an important role in anesthesia and analgesia, but it is not easy to be mastered. This article discusses the application value of flipped classroom combined with 3D Body anatomy software for anesthesia specialty residents to learn ultrasound-guided thoracic paravertebral nerve block. This innovative education model includes three parts: before class, during class and after class. Before class, the teachers study the syllabus and make teaching micro-videos, and the cross-sectional anatomy added into the 3D Body anatomy software helps the residents understand. During class, teachers divide the residents into groups to report and exchange their learning experience, organize discussions, and finally give them comments. After class, the instructor will assign homework, assess the residents, and evaluate their satisfaction. This teaching model helps residents master the ultrasound-guided thoracic nerve block, and obtains satisfactory evaluation from the trainees, which is helpful for promotion.

Application of the extended focused assessment with sonography for trauma (EFAST) combined with Workshop in the training of anesthesiologist / 中华医学教育探索杂志

Case-oriented Workshop training mode is a professional training method which has been highly praised by anesthesiologists in recent years. It is of great significance to stimulate the participation of anesthesiologists and strengthen the application of the extended focused assessment with sonography for trauma (EFAST) in perioperative anesthesia management. The training of EFAST is divided into two stages: the first stage is about the relevant knowledge of EFAST and watching standardized operations on site, and the second stage is for each trainee to practice the operations under the guidance of the teacher until they can complete them independently. The EFAST adopts Workshop training mode, and the trainees can complete the target area scanning in about 90 seconds on average. It can maximize the training effectiveness and comprehensively improve the trainees' mastery of knowledge and skills in an all-round way. It is a training mode worthy of promotion in anesthesiology department.
