  • Application of standardized patients in the teaching of internal medical practice for international students

    Objective To explore the application value of standardized patient (SP)-based teaching method in the teaching of medical history taking for international students. Methods During the autumn semester of 2017, 96 international medical students were randomly divided into two groups, with 48 students in the SP-based teaching group and 48 students in the conventional teaching group. The test scores of medical history taking in English in internal medical practice of the two groups were compared. The teaching feedback from the international students was collected and evaluated by online questionnaire survey. Results The scores of medical history taking examination in internal medical practice of the students using SP-based teaching method were higher than those of the students using conventional teaching method (86.5±9.7 vs.78.2±10.6), and the difference was statistically significant (t=3.983, P<0.001). According to the questionnaire analysis, in terms of whether the current teaching method could enhance learning interest, improve communication ability, promote clinical skills, train clinical thinking, and highlight humanistic care, students with positive views in the SP-based teaching group accounted for 92.86%, 97.62%, 85.71%, 90.48%, and 95.24%, respectively, while students with positive views in the conventional teaching group accounted for 90.00%, 87.50%, 82.50%, 77.50%, and 97.50%, respectively, and the differences were not statistically significant (P>0.05). Conclusions Well-trained SP has a good application value in clinical practice of internal medicine and diagnostics teaching for international students. SP-based teaching method has been accepted and supported by the majority of international medical students who have experienced it.
