Preliminary exploration of standardized training of imaging residents based on mixed teaching method

Abstract

Objective To explore a mixed teaching method that can effectively improve the clinical capacity of students in the department of imaging and residence training. Methods Sixty-six students were enrolled in the First Hospital of Shanxi Medical University in past recent 2 years and were randomly divided into traditional group, modern group and comprehensive group. Each group adopted corresponding teaching methods. Recording the OSCE scores before and after the standardized training and teaching work, and using questionnaires to obtain students' satisfaction with teaching work and self-evaluation. Results The results of the three groups before and after the standardized training were statistically different (P＜0.05). There was no significant difference in OSCE scores among the three groups before standardized training. After the standardized training of the three groups of students, there was a statistical difference between the OSCE performance groups(P＜0.05),and the comprehensive group was better than the traditional group and the modern group. The comprehensive teaching group had the highest average satisfaction (AS) scores with the teaching mode(4.36). The effective use of time AS scores (4.23 and 4.27) in traditional education group and comprehensive education group were higher than those in modern education group (3.55). The AS scores (3.64 and 3.78) of the traditional group in the application of self-learning ability and clinical skills were lower than those of the modern group and the comprehensive group. Conclusions The quadruple mixed teaching method can effectively improve the clinical knowledge and skills of resident trainees in the imaging department in the residential training.
