Abstract Objective To explore the application effect of mini clinical evaluation exercise (Mini-CEX) combined with direct observation of procedural skills (DOPS) in the standardized training of general practitioners in community clinics. Methods From June 2022 to June 2023,20 general practitioners who received standardized training for residents in the general outpatient department of Changqing Community Health Service Center of Wuhan Fourth Hospital were collected as the research objects. Mini-CEX combined with DOPS was used to evaluate the general practitioners at the time of admission, 2 weeks of training and 4 weeks of training, and the results were fed back. Results The scores of 20 general practitioners at 2 weeks and 4 weeks of training were compared with the scores at the time of admission, and the difference was statistically significant, p < 0.05. Conclusion Mini-CEX combined with DOPS can improve the teaching effect of standardized training of residents in community general clinics.
