ObjectiveTo learn about the awareness of medical liability-related provisions of Tort Liability Act of undergraduates in medical schools, thus to provide reference for the modification of teaching plans of undergraduate medical education. MethodsBetween September and December 2012, we conducted a sampling survey on undergraduates of West China Medical School using a self-designed questionnaire about medical liability-related provisions of Tort Liability Act. ResultsGenerally, students'awareness of the provisions was low, and most of the students did not have a good understanding of the provisions related to medical disputes. The respondents'knowledge of medical liability-related provisions of Tort Liability Act did not match with their grade in school and their level of medical knowledge. Most of their knowledge about medical law was learned from mass media. Undergraduate medical students had an expectation to learn more about medical law from class. ConclusionMedical law classes should be put into the teaching plans of medical education.
ObjectiveTo analyze the long-term effect on cardiopulmonary resuscitation skill between video-led and scene simulation training and traditional instructor-led courses in medical student with eight-year program.MethodsNinety-nine medical students with eight-year program who studied in Peking Union Medical College were trained in cardiopulmonary resuscitation skill from January to February 2018. They were randomly divided into two groups, 53 students participated in basic life support course training, which belonged to video-led and scene simulation training as the trial group, and 46 students were trained by traditional instructor-led courses as the control group. In January 2019, the above 99 students were re-evaluated for cardiopulmonary resuscitation, and the outcome of cardiopulmonary resuscitation skill test in total scores and sub-items scores between two groups were compared. The data were analyzed using t test and Wilcoxon rank sum test.ResultsThe total average scores of the trial group (8.02±1.11) was higher than that of the control group (6.85±1.50) (P<0.05). The sub-items scores of the trial group in the three aspects of on-site assessment, chest compressions and simple respirators (1.64±0.37, 3.38±0.46, 1.52±0.58) were higher than those of the control group (1.33±0.45, 2.80±0.76, 1.19±0.58) (P<0.05). In terms of opening airway, there was no significant difference in scores between the two groups (1.02±0.47 vs. 1.10±0.45, P>0.05). The excellent rate of the trial group (60.3%) was significantly higher than that of the control group (30.4%) (P<0.05), and the unqualified rate (5.6%) was significantly lower than that of the control group (21.7%) (P<0.05).ConclusionsThe video-led and scene simulation training has a better effect on cardiopulmonary resuscitation skills acquisition and long-term maintenance than traditional instructor-led courses for medical student with eight-year program.
目的:调查在校医学生对医疗相关法律法规及医患关系的认知,为医学生教育提出建议。方法:使用自制调查问卷,对四川大学华西校区不同专业方向及学历层次的在校医学生进行整群随机抽样,将所得数据录入计算机建立数据库,进行统计分析。结果:(1) 在对医疗法规相关知识的知晓率上,研究生高于本科生,临床相关专业高于非临床相关专业;(2) 医学生对医疗法规相关知识及医患关系的认知主要来自于课外,来自于课堂教学的很少,并且大多数医学生支持开设相关法律课程;(3) 过半数的医学生认为医患沟通不足是导致医疗纠纷的首要原因;(4) 大多数医学生认为目前医患之间存在信任危机,且这种状况对他们今后的择业观造成了负面影响。结论:在医学生中开展相关医疗法律课程等人文学科课程是符合当前国内医疗卫生事业发展需要的。
ObjectiveTo investigate the knowledge related to evidence-based medicine (EBM) in the medical students of Hubei University of Medicine using a cross-sectional survey approach. MethodsWe conducted an investigation on 600 medical students (extracted by stratified random sampling) from different majors and different grades who were at school using a pre-designed questionnaire from May 10th to May 12th, 2013. The data were analyzed with Microsoft Excel 2007. ResultsA total of 545 valid questionnaires were recovered with an effective recovery rate of 90.8%. The results showed that 58.5% of the participants heard of EBM for the first time or once heard of it but knew nothing; 38.2% had learnt some knowledge about EBM. However, only 3.3% were familiar with it; all the participants suggested EBM teaching should be performed. ConclusionThe knowledge related to EBM in the medical students of Hubei University of Medicine is low. However, their study attitude towards EBM is pretty good. The level of EBM teaching needs to be improved.
Modern medicine is being transferring from traditional "empirical medicine" to more scientific "evidence-based medicine", which embodies the idea that clinical research is a primary motive that keeps medical practice continuously developing. Therefore, the contemporary aim of medical education should focus on attaching great importance to and strengthen the training of medical students' clinical scientific research ability. Based on clinical departments, we have built an open research project platform for volunteers for medical students before engaging in medical practice. Through a spirally-progressing teaching mode of "Training-Practice-Assessment-Retraining" for medical students before engaging in medical practice, the platform provides training on the knowledge and skills of evidence-based medicine and clinical scientific research. Through the volunteers' active and omnibearing practice, this project achieves some good outcomes in teaching and learning experience. This extracurricular teaching mode provides a platform for scientific research volunteers with the capacity for more knowledge before engaging in medical practice, which is recommended to empower the students with ability of scientific research.
Objective By investigating the employment situation and intentions of medical students, to provide scientific evidence for guiding students’ employment by relevant departments, and to give references for formulating reasonable medical personnel training and distribution policy by health administrations. Methods The medical students of Grade 2005 in Lanzhou University were investigated by using a self-designed questionnaire. Results Among 397 questionnaires distributed, 337 were returned (84.8%). The analyses showed, when hunting a job, 45% of the respondents thought the “opportunities for personal development” was the most important factor, 61% thought the influence of parents’ or family’s desires was “greater” or “extremely greater”, 85% thought the job matching their majors was “important” or “very important”, 57% thought it is “easier” to get a content job by their majors, 51% held that the “fewer opportunities” were the most unfavorable conditions for working in township hospitals, 68% wouldn’t directly choose township hospitals after graduation, and 67% still gave up the choice even if an official position was provided. Conclusion The medical students attach great importance to the opportunities for their personal development, but they lack self-consciousness in choosing the occupation. They are optimistic about the employment but lack passion for primary hospitals. Meanwhile, they aren’t familiar with national policy guidance; their employment fields are narrow.
Moral education and professional quality training remain important part of medical education and talent training. This article aimed to conduct a questionnaire survey on medical college students about their professional ethics status and school education in professional ethics, so as to explore the paths and measures of medical students' professional ethics education. College education bears the primary responsibility for the medical students' professional ethics education, thus reasonable curriculum should be set up and teaching methods should be innovated; Industry environment and social ethos also have important implications on medical students' professional ethics cognition and behavior, so it is necessary to regulate the behavior of the medical industry according to law; Information age requires correct public opinion by means of network guidance, and under the impact of the pluralistic culture and values, doctors need to adapt themselves to our excellent traditional culture.
