Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of teaching method using students as standardized patients on clinical practice teaching of neurology.Methods We randomly assigned 80 undergraduate majoring in clinical medicine into two groups:a control group where students were instructed with traditional clinical teaching methods,and an experimental group where students acted as standardized patients.Following the clinical placement,we administered an Objective Structured Clinical Exam-ination(OSCE)and a satisfaction survey to all participants.Results The experimental group performed significantly better than the control group in history taking and neurological examination in the OSCE(P<0.05).The results of the questionnaire showed that the experimental group scored significantly higher than the control group in improving clinical thinking,stimulating learning interest,and improving communication skills(P<0.05).Conclusion The teaching methods using student as standardized pa-tients in the process of clinical practice in neurology helps to improve the history taking and neurological physical examination skills of clinical students,yielding good educational outcomes.
