Abstract:
Objective:To explore the effect of the Nurse-Mini-CEX assessment method combined with PBL teaching mode in the cultivation of core competencies of undergraduate nursing students during ICU internships.Methods:A total of 64 nursing students interning in the ICU of a Third-grade Class-A hospital in Wuhu City from Sep 2022 to Aug 2023 were selected and randomly divided into 8 groups(8 students in each group).Using cluster sampling,4 groups(32 students)were assigned to the experimental group,receiving training via Nursing-Mini-CEX combined with PBL,while the remaining 4 groups(32 students)served as the control group,undergoing traditional clinical teaching.All students completed a 2-month pre-ICU clinical internship,followed by a 4-week ICU internship.Results:Compared to the control group,the experimental group showed significantly higher scores in five dimensions of nursing competency:nursing consultation,nursing physical examination,nursing diagnosis,nursing interventions,and holistic evaluation(P<0.05).Additionally,the experimental group outperformed the control group in core competencies,including clinical nursing skills,leadership,interpersonal communication,professional development,critical thinking and research ability(P<0.05).Self-efficacy in learning ability and behavior,as well as scores in personal accomplishment,depersonalization,and emotional exhaustion,were also higher in the experimental group(P<0.05).Furthermore,the experimental group reported greater satisfaction with training content,teaching effectiveness,clinical skill development,teamwork cultivation,and overall satisfaction(P<0.05).Conclusions:Nursing-Mini-CEX assessment combined with PBL teaching mode effectively enhances core competencies and self-efficacy,reduces burnout among ICU nursing interns,and achieve good clinical results,providing a theoretical and practical basis for the teaching and training of nursing students in ICU.However,as a single-center study,further validation and broader studies are warranted.
