Abstract:
Objective To establish case database of critical illness and explore the effect of critical case-based learning in the anesthesia teaching program as well as its influence on clinical thinking ability of students. Methods Case database of critical illness was built with foxtable software and ASAⅢ~Ⅴpatients undergoing anesthesia were included in the case database. Patients' information were recorded according to the sequence of pre-operative evaluation,intra-operative management and post-operative recovery. We designed a student questionnaire to investigate the effect of critical case-based learning. And we also compared the effect of critical case-based learning and traditional teaching on undergraduate interns, residents, and graduate students by scores of case analysis test. Data analysis used t test. Results The critical cases database is characterized by authenticity, hierarchy and for-wardness. Survey result of questionnaire shows that the proportions of students who believe critical case-based learning helps to strengthen the links of theory and clinical practice, to improve expression skills, and to promote active classroom atmosphere, solidarity and cooperation are 80%, 71.6% and 68.3%respectively. Compared with those who received traditional teaching, the residents and graduate students who received critical case-based learning get significantly higher scores in case analysis test. However, the difference of scores between undergraduate interns receiving traditional teaching or criti-cal case-based learning has no significance. Conclusion The establishment of critical cases database and its application in anesthesia teaching program have effectively improved clinical thinking ability of anesthesia residents and graduate students.
