A Preliminary Study on the Application of Evidence-based Medicine in Laboratory Diagnostics of Hematolog
Objective To investigate the impact of evidence-based medicine in laboratory diagnostics of hematology.Methods A total of 62 5-year clinical medicine students in the class of 2020 at South China University were chosen to participate in the current study.The traditional group(30 students)were enrolled in the usual teaching program,while the innovative group(32 students)adopted evidence-based medicine teaching mode.We compared the results of the experimental examination and the final theoretical test of hematological diseases,and tallied the subjective assessment of the instructional impact.Results The difference in the final hematological disease portion of the theoretical assessment scores was not statistically significant(P>0.05),but the experimental assessment scores of the innovative group were higher than those of the traditional group(P<0.05).Students in the innovative group gave their teachers higher ratings than students in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion The teaching mode of evidence-based medicine is better able to exercise students'clinical practice skills during the study of hematological diseases,which is more beneficial in improving students'clinical thinking abilities,accruing experience for the improvement of the subsequent courses.This exploration can integrate a novel teaching approach for the first-class curriculum of laboratory diagnostics and to achieve the effect of mutual benefits.
