Practical exploration of BOPPPS model combined with situational teaching method in clinical training of intensive medicine: novel pedagogy and perception.

OBJECTIVE

To explore the application value of bridge-in, learning objective, pre-assessment, participatory learning, post-assessment, and summary (BOPPPS) model combined with situational teaching method in the clinical teaching of intensive care unit (ICU), and to provide experience for the reform of ICU clinical teaching and standardized training of intensive medicine.

METHODS

A randomized trial was conducted using a multi-center, prospective cohort study. A total of 293 residential physicians in ICU of Fujian Medical University Union Hospital, the Affiliated Hospital of Putian University and the First Affiliated Hospital of Gannan Medical University from January 2021 to December 2023 were selected as subjects, and the residential physicians in ICU in each medical center were divided into control group and experimental group using random number table method. The control group adopted bedside teaching and demonstration teaching method, and the experimental group adopted BOPPPS model combined with situational teaching method. Clinical teaching performance was evaluated by ICU admission examination, and study process questionnaire (SPQ) and the critical thinking disposition inventory-Chinese version (CTDI-CV) was used to evaluate the learning motivation and critical thinking ability of the two groups. At the same time, the effect evaluation and satisfaction questionnaire of ICU training (EESQ) was used to evaluate the teaching satisfaction.

RESULTS

The scores of the experimental group in ICU theoretical knowledge, clinical thinking and skills, and the treatment of clinical critical cases were higher than those of the control group [(87.31 ± 13.15), (92.86 ± 12.35), (81.45 ± 11.28)] vs. [(83.94 ± 12.73), (88.37 ± 12.61), (78.83 ± 10.47)], the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( < 0.05). The scores of surface motivation, deep motivation, achievement motivation and SPQ total scores of the experimental group were all higher than those in control group ( < 0.05), and the scores of seek truth, open mind, analytical ability, systematic ability, self-confidence of critical thinking and intellectual curiosity of the experimental group were also higher than those in the control group, and the CTDI total score was statistically significant ( < 0.05). In addition, the results of the questionnaire showed that the experimental group was better than the control group in terms of learning interest in ICU, improvement of humanistic care and doctor-patient communication ability, improvement of teamwork ability, improvement of job identity, ICU training harvest and satisfaction with teacher style ( < 0.05).

CONCLUSION

The combination of BOPPPS model and situational teaching method is likely a more effective and helpful which may improve the clinical comprehensive ability and training quality of residential physicians, and it may be worth learning and promoting.
