ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the value of competency-oriented training mode in the training of professional postgraduate students of thoracic surgery.Methods:A total of 71 professional postgraduate students, who entered thoracic surgery department for rotation training, were divided into experimental group and control group. Among them, 33 students in experimental group accepted competency-oriented training, including medical theoretical knowledge, clinical skills, clinical thinking, scientific information and interpersonal communication, while 38 students in control group received traditional training. Before leaving the department, the two groups of students had a unified assessment, and their results were compared and analyzed. SPSS 19.0 was used to make statistical analysis on the students' assessment results, and the comparison of the two groups of students' results was made by two independent samples t test. Results:The experimental group performed better in theoretical knowledge, clinical skills, clinical thinking and total scores than control group [(14.21±2.03) points vs. (12.97±2.06) points, (24.30±2.35) points vs. (22.37±3.10) points, (24.00±1.85) points vs. (22.71±3.17) points, (78.09±3.53) points vs. (73.34±5.25) points], with significant differences (all P<0.05). Conclusion:Competency-oriented training model can significantly enhance the training quality of professional postgraduates of thoracic surgery. We should make rational use of new media means and various teaching platforms, and give full play to the characteristics and advantages of the discipline, which facilitates to improving the clinical post competence of trainees.
