Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the effect of clinical practice of evidence-based medicine (EBM) in facilitating the essential competent capability of ultrasound medicine residents.Methods:A total of 39 residents undergoing standardized residency training in the Department of Ultrasound Medicine at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine from October 2021 to October 2024 were randomly assigned into two groups: control group (19 residents) and an evidence-based traceability group (20 residents). The two groups received same EBM theoretical teaching materials, however, the evidence-based traceability group was additionally required to complete a clinical practice component in ultrasound medicine as part of their EBM curriculum. A comparison was made between the two groups at the conclusion of the teaching cycle with respect to self-assessment (EBM attitude, skills, knowledge), objective test (case analysis, theoretical knowledge), and teaching satisfaction.Results:After the teaching period, the evidence-based traceability group exhibited significantly elevated self-assessment scores in both EBM theoretical knowledge and practice skills when compared to the control group with scores of (26.70±1.17)score vs (21.37±4.15)score and (22.40±1.39)score vs (17.79±3.15)score, respectively (both P<0.001). In the objective test (case analysis, theoretical knowledge), the evidence-based traceability group scored higher in case analysis relevant to clinical scenarios compared to the control group[(59.55±4.56) score vs (52.11±6.58) score, P<0.001], while no statistically significant difference was observed in theoretical knowledge[(29.00±3.08) score vs (27.89±4.19) score, P=0.357]. Both groups reported high teaching satisfaction, with no significant difference between groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The incorporation of clinical practice in EBM education for ultrasound medicine residents enhances their clinical practice abilities and improves their analytical and problem-solving skills in real clinical scenarios, contributing to the development of general competent capability among residents.
