Objective To explore the implementation effect of PDCA(plan-do-check-action)style training of severe ultrasound and hemodynamics in standardized training(residential training)for residents majoring in internal medicine on improving their clinical decision-making ability.Methods A retrospective research method was conducted,60 residents in Xinyang Central Hospital from July 2017 to July 2023 were selected as the research objects,and patients were randomly divided into experimental group and control group,with 30 residents in each group.After the routine entrance education,the experimental group applied the PDCA mode training of severe ultrasound and hemodynamics.The control group was trained with the training objectives and requirements of the department of critical care medicine in the contents and standards of standardized training for internal medicine residents for 2 months.At the end of the training period,the residents of the two groups were assessed and investigated by questionnaire,and the differences of theoretical knowledge assessment,clinical practice skills assessment,case assessment scores and satisfaction between the two groups were compared.Results The results of theoretical knowledge examination,diagnosis and differential diagnosis,and clinical decision-making in the experimental group were significantly higher than those in the control group(theoretical knowledge examination score:90.5±2.7 vs.85.7±3.8,diagnosis and differential diagnosis score:92.0±2.4 vs.87.9±3.7,clinical decision-making score:90.3±3.1 vs.85.5±3.9,all P<0.05),satisfaction with teaching methods,stimulating learning interest,firmly mastering knowledge,enhancing problem-solving ability,improving learning enthusiasm,improving clinical thinking ability and enhancing team consciousness was also significantly higher than that of the control group[teaching methods:80.0%(24/30)vs.46.7%(14/30),stimulate learning interest:83.3%(25/30)vs.56.7%(17/30),firmly mastering knowledge:80.0%(24/30)vs.40.0%(12/30),enhance problem-solving ability:70.0%(21/30)vs.43.3%(13/30),improving learning enthusiasm:83.3%(25/30)vs.50.0%(15/30),improving clinical thinking ability:60.0%(18/30)vs.40.0%(12/30),enhancing team consciousness:73.3%(22/30)vs.46.7%(14/30),all P<0.05].Conclusion The application of PDCA-style training of severe ultrasound and hemodynamics can help internal medicine residents master the basic theory and skills of severe diseases faster and better in the rotation of critical medicine departments,which is more conducive to improving the clinical decision-making ability of internal medicine residents.
