Explorations of Clinical Teaching and Training Model for Refresher Anesthesiologists

Abstract

Objective To establish and evaluate the clinical teaching and training model for refresher anesthesiologists. Methods A total of 25 refresher anesthesiologists from the Department of Anesthesiology in Peking Union Medical College Hospital during the period of March to September 2023 were enrolled. They were taught with the clinical teaching and training model, namely 'tutorial system-knowledge update-clinical practice'. The refresher anesthesiologists completed the same structured pre-designed questionnaire at the beginning and the end of training respectively. The scores were recorded and compared to evaluate the effectiveness of the clinical training model. Feedback from refresher anesthesiologists about the teaching and training model was also collected. Results Altogether 84%(21/25) and 100%(25/25) of questionnaires distributed were completed respectively, and 92% students gave positive feedback. The mean score at the end of training (10.1±1.1) was significantly higher than that at the beginning (5.6±1.8)(P < 0.01). Conclusion The 'tutorial system-knowledge update-clinical practice' clinical teaching and training model was significantly useful to elevate the effectiveness of training refresher anesthesiologists and their satisfaction.
