ABSTRACT
Objective: To observe and analyze the clinical effect, satisfaction and life quality of an exhaust device that was applied in patients with pneumothorax in emergency internal medicine. Methods: The clinical data of 90 patients with pneumothorax were analyzed, and all of them were divided into observation group (45 cases) and control group (45 cases) according to the different clinical treatment plan. The patients of observation group received pneumothorax treatment by using exhaust device and that of control group received pneumothorax treatment by using conventional exhaust device. The clinical effect, satisfaction degree and situation of life quality post-treatment between the two groups were analyzed and compared. Results: The total effective rate and satisfaction of observation group (97.78% and 97.78%) were significantly higher than that of control group (80.00% and 77.78%) (x2=7.200, x2=8.389, P<0.05). And the result of follow-up of half a year showed that the difference of total score of life quality between observation group (83.50±14.48) and control group (65.34±13.15) was significant (t=6.228, P<0.05). Conclusion: In the treatment of patients with pneumothorax in emergency internal medicine, the application of an exhaust device of pneumothorax can make the gas was wholly absorbed, and significantly enhance the satisfaction and life quality of patients.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the application effect of Problem based learning (PBL) combined with role play teaching method in the training of emergency internal medicine.Methods Totally 60 medical students were randomly divided into two groups.The students in the observation groop were trained with PBL teaching method while those in control group were trained with traditional teaching method.The practical performances of the students in both groups were evaluated by virtual experience of dealing with patients in the emergency department through the role play teaching method.The grasp of basic knowledge was assessed by writing tests.Finally all the students in the observation group answered a survey about the teaching methods.Results There was uo difference in the scores of the basic knowledge test between the two groups ( P ＞ 0.05 ).The practical ability of the observation group was much better than that of the control group in the role play practice ( P ＜ 0.05 ).Almost all the students in the observation group accept the PBL teaching method.Conelusion PBL combined with role play teaching method is effective based on the characteristics of emergency medicine.
