Clinical application of case teaching method combined with clinical pathway in pediatrics teaching / 中华医学教育探索杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the clinical application of case teaching method combined with clinical pathway in pediatrics teaching.Methods 103 students in pediatric practice from September 2016 to September 2017 were enrolled as the study object,who were divided randomly into observation group (52 cases) and control group (51 cases).Routine teaching method was adopted in the control group,while case teaching method combined with clinical pathway was adopted in the observation group.In addition,100 cases of children in need of rescue were selected for each group and the students were divided into two or three in a group to participate in the rescue.If the student could complete the rescue with the assistance of supervisor,he will be considered as playing a leading role in rescue process.Otherwise,another supervisor would join to lead the rescue,and the student would assist by the side,who will be considered as playing an auxiliary role in rescue process.The results of examination,classroom participation,homework,the rescue performance and the satisfaction of teaching were compared between two groups.Results The scores of theoretical course,case analysis and skill operation in the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group (P＜0.05).The scores of classroom attendance,classroom activity and homework quality in the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group (P＜0.05).Success rate of rescue conducted by students in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group(P＜0.05).The teaching satisfaction of the observation group was also significantly higher than that of the control group (P＜0.05).Conclusion The application of case teaching method combined with clinical pathway teaching model in pediatrics teaching is effective and worthy of popularizing,which can obviously improve teaching quality,arouse students' interest in teaching process,and improve students' professional quality.
