Five general practitioners were trained for application of the enhancing CalgaryCambridge guide in consultation.The consultation time in 50 patients were recorded before and after training and the satisfaction degree of patients was investigated by questionnaire survey.Results showed that the length of consultation time after training was longer than that before training (490 s vs 277 s,P ＜ 0.05) and also longer than that of specialists (490 s vs 268 s,P ＜0.05).The overall satisfaction rate of patients was increased after training (72％ vs 88％,P ＜0.05).The results indicate that training of Calgary-Cambridge guide for doctor-patient communication can improve the communication skills of general practitioners.
