Résumé
Objective:To evaluate the effectiveness of hands-on training and video demonstration in training of forceps delivery for residents.Methods:Forty nine residents who were rotating in the obstetrics department of Peking Union Medical College Hospital from 2019 to 2021 were enrolled. The residents were randomly divided into two groups: the instructor group ( n=24) was taught by hands-on training of forceps delivery and the video group ( n=25) was instructed by watching video demonstration. All the trainees completed the self-confidence questionnaire survey, and were evaluated by written tests and objective structured assessment of technical skills scoring system. Results:The scores of self-confidence in each item after the simulation training were higher than those before training in both groups; and there were no significant differences between two groups in the increment of scores(mastering knowledge: 1.54±0.98 vs. 1.40±0.71, U=266.68, P=0.480;mastering operation skills: 1.42±0.93 vs.1.80±0.87, U=233.47, P=0.161; mastering forceps structure: 1.63±1.10 vs. 1.88±0.93, U=261.63, P=0.416; confidence in independent operation: 1.13±0.90 vs. 1.00±1.08, U=287.74, P=0.799; evaluation of simulation training: 0.21±0.51 vs. 0.16±0.55, U=288.27, P=0.776). In the written tests, the scores of the instructor group were significantly higher than those of the video group (83.00±7.18 vs.70.56±10.37; t=4.86, P<0.001). In the practical operation, the instructor group significantly outperformed the video group in items of “right blade placement” (0.71±0.46 vs. 0.20±0.41, U=147.54, P<0.001), “objective total score” (6.17±1.46 vs. 4.72±1.65, U=155.49, P=0.003) and “correct traction” (0.85±0.31 vs. 0.56±0.51, U=213.86, P=0.036). Conclusion:Training delivered via hands-on instruction and demonstration was generally more effective than that delivered via video, although both groups show a increased self-confidence in learning and performing forceps delivery.
