Abstract:
Objective To explore the effect of evidence-based medicine combined withcase based learning(CBL) in pediatric residency training.Methods Totally 52 residents were equally divided into two groups:experiment group and control group.Method of CBL combined with the evidencebased medicine (Taking two residents as one group,firstly teacher posed the questions and then residents searched for references when off duty and made evidence-based case presentation at fixed time when doing teaching ward around,after wards all personnel in the department made case discussion,finally teacher made the summary) was used in experimental group while traditional teaching method (teacher guided the residents to analyze the case by clinical experiences,residents took notes and sometimes asked questions,teacher directly gave the answers)was used in control group.The teaching effect is evaluated by questionnaire,theory test and clinical skills assessment.Statistical analysis was carried out on appraisal results with SPSS 16.0 software,test results and appraisal results were expressed as ((x-) ±s) and t test was performed,P < 0.05 was taken as statistically significant.Results Residents in experimental group had more advantages in self-study ability,literature retrieval ability,physician teamwork spirit,clinical thinking,PowerPoint making and language expression after receiving CBL combined with evidence-based medicine.Theory examination showed that average score of experimental group was better than that of control group (75.46 ± 6.646) vs.(71.38 ±4.758),with statistically significantly differences (P =0.014),especially in subjective items.Clinical skills assessment showed that experimental group was better than control group in writing medical records and doing clinical thinking.Conclusions Teaching method of evidence-based medicine combined with CBL is significantly better than traditional indoctrination teaching in improving the abilities of self-study,cultivating clinical thinking,literature retrieval,language performance and other skills.This teaching method is more suitable for pediatric residency training.
