Abstract:
Objective:To observe the effectiveness of mini-clinical evaluation exercise (Mini-CEX) on the standardized training of residents in the department of nephrology.
Methods:Mini-CEX was used to evaluate the 80 residents who received clinical standardized training in the department of nephrology from March 2017 to March 2018 in our hospital. The assessment mainly contained seven aspects: medical history taking, physical examination, clinical diagnosis, therapeutic regimen, doctor-patient communication, humanistic care, and overall clinical ability. Meanwhile, a Mini-CEX questionnaire was conducted among 9 teachers and 80 residents, including their viewpiont and satisfaction degree on Mini-CEX. The SPSS 21.0 was used for statistical analysis and the independent sample t-test was used for comparison between the two groups.
Results:Through the Mini-CEX assessment, every aspect of clinical competence of residents at the end of this program was significantly higher than that at the early period, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The most obvious improvement in residents was their treatment plan, overall clinical ability and physical examination. About the assessment of therapeutic regimen, the average score at the end of the training was (7.525±1.062), which was better than before (5.175±1.035), and the difference was statistically significant (P=0.000). Besides, clinical diagnosis and humanistic care were significantly better than those at the beginning (P<0.05). About the assessment of clinical diagnosis, the average score after the training was (6.925±1.071), which was better than before (5.425±1.238), and the difference was statistically significant (P=0.000). According to results of Mini-CEX questionnaire, teachers thought that Mini-CEX was a better way of assessment (88.9%) and could promote self-learning (77.8%), while residents believed that Mini-CEX was close to clinical practice and the ward-or-practice-based assessment was relatively comprehensive, which could significantly improve clinical skills (85.0%) and comprehensive quality (87.5%), with a satisfaction degree of 92.5%.
Conclusion:Mini-CEX is applied in the standardized training of residents in the department of nephrology, which can effectively improve clinical comprehensive ability of residents and improve Self-learning of teachers.
