ABSTRACT

Objective To improve the mode of clinical medicine postgraduates for specialty degree by OSCE. Methods Clinical medicine postgraduates for specialty degree of Grade 2010 and 2011 were enrolled as research objects. The OSCE scores of the students of Grade 2010 were analyzed and the problems in clinical skills training were summarized. In the last year of clinical training for the clinical medical students of Grade 2011, the reform of clinical skills training was implemented with such improvement measures as publishing last year achievement, analyzing OSCE assessment, strength-ening the supervision of the department of clinical skill training, strengthening the examination as-sessment efforts and organizing collective training. And finally the OSCE scores of the students of Grade 2011 were compared with the scores of the students of Grade 2010. SPSS 19.0 was used to analyze the OSCE scores. Quantitative data were expressed as x±s. T test and Chi-squared test were em-ployed to do statistical analysis, with the inspection level of α=0.05. Result The graduate exami-nation OSCE scores of clinical medicine professional master's degree postgraduates of Grade 2010 display that the failure rate of SP, Physical, Surgical Operation, CPR and Case analysis are more than 5%. After the improvement of clinical skill training, using independent samples t test and chi square test, and contrasting grade 2010, the failure rate of the OSCE score of Grade 2011 in physical examination, surgical operation, site emergency station, CPR station, and case analysis station is significantly improved (P<0.05). Conclusions Improving the mode of clinical skill training by OSCE and performance analysis can effectively enhance clinical competence.
