Abstract:
Objective To explore the effect of case-based learning(CBL)combined with PICOS(population,interventions,compari-sons,outcomes,study design)framework in undergraduate occupational therapy(OT)education. Methods A total of 43 junior students majoring in OT from School of Rehabilitation Medicine,Nanjing Medical Univer-sity,were taught the core courses of OT using CBL combined with PICOS framework,from February,2023 to June,2024.The Evidence-based Practice Competency Assessment Scale was used to investigate the students at the beginning and the end of the semester,respectively. Results At the end of the semester,students'self-assessments improved in areas such as the quality evaluation of litera-ture,identifying the best scientific evidence,evaluating the quality of papers,conducting practical analysis of re-search,applying PICOS to formulate clinical questions,assessing the primary association measurement methods of research results,understanding different levels of evidence,and familiarity with commonly used evidence-based practice databases(χ2>4.778,P<0.05).Self-assessment regarding uncertainty about the decision-making process or the different recommendation strengths for health interventions(χ2=7.938,P<0.01)was lower.Atti-tudes toward evidence-based practice,skill levels,and knowledge all improved. Conclusion The combined application of CBL and PICOS framework could improve the effect of undergraduate OT ed-ucation and enhance the evidence-based practice ability of OT students.
