Teaching practice to overcome neurophobia at clinical practice stage / 中华医学教育探索杂志

ABSTRACT

Neurology is a relatively difficult subject in all medical subjects, to which medical students, interns and low qualification residents generally have a kind of fear, called neurophobia. Through such teaching methods as bedside teaching, problem and case oriented group discussions, mini-lectures and net-work communication, and combined with the specific case and imaging data, our teaching and research section helps students consolidate the basic knowledge of neuroanatomy, grasp the physical examination of the nervous system, and cultivate their thinking of positioning and qualitative diagnosis, so as to enable them to achieve better learning effect in the shortest practice time when they are in clinical neurological depart-ment, and help them to overcome neurophobia.
