ObjectiveTo explore the status of clinical learning environment in undergraduate nursing students in the late clinical practice stage in Sichuan Province. MethodThe sampling was performed in a layered-randomized and geometric proportional way. A total of 1 027 nursing students from 6 nursing schools in Sichuan Province between May and July 2012 were included. Data were collected by the self-rating questionnaires, including demographic sheet, and the nursing clinical learning environment scale. ResultsThe general score of evaluation for clinical learning environment by the nursing undergraduates was 144.99±26.60, and the average score of the items was 3.45±0.63. The average scores were 3.41±0.74, 3.59±0.64, 3.43±0.69, 3.45±0.73, 3.35±0.77, and 3.49±0.69, representing the personality, task orientation, working atmosphere and team spirit, innovation, interpersonal relation, and student participation, respectively. ConclusionsThe assessments about clinical learning environment of nursing undergraduates in Sichuan province are medium grade and the evaluation dimensions of personality and interpersonal relationships low. It is necessary to improve clinical learning environment in the future.
Objective To identify the factors which influence the effectiveness of clinical evaluation of undergraduate nursing students. Methods A self-made questionnaire was used in face-to-face interviews with 158 clinical teachers of undergraduate nursing students in four teaching hospitals in Sichuan. Results The main factors that influence the effectiveness of clinical evaluation of undergraduate nursing students included: clinical environment, duration of evaluation, degree of familiarity with the evaluation criteria of clinical teachers, and evaluation methods used by clinical teachers. The less important factors included: “halo-effect” of teachers to students, relationship between teachers and students, attitude towards evaluation and emotional status of clinical teachers. Conclusion It is of great importance to improve the clinical environment, provide enough time for clinical teachers to evaluate, cultivate and improve clinical teachers’ evaluation and competence, and establish a good relationship between teachers and students.This should improve the accuracy, objectivity and fairness of undergraduate nursing students’ clinical evaluation.

ObjectiveTo explore if flipped classroom in the perspective of student-based education can improve clinical communication skills of student practical nurses in clinical practice. MethodsNursing undergraduate students who practised in a top-level comprehensive hospital between July 2014 and April 2015 were included in this study as the research subjects. Eighty-five student nurses were randomly divided into observation group (n=43) and control group (n=42). Students of the observation group participated in the flipped classroom in the perspective of student-based education, while students of the control group took routine clinical practice. The clinical communication skills of the students in the two groups before and after intervention were measured by using questionnaire survey. ResultsThere were significant improvement in verification experience, effective information delivery, patient problems identifying, listening acuity, harmonious relationship building and joint participation for students in the observation group (P < 0.05). ConclusionsFlipped classroom in the perspective of student-based education can effectively improve clinical communication skills for student practical nurses. It can be used as a method of communication ability training for undergraduate nursing students in clinical practice.
Objective To assess the effect of problem-based learning (PBL) to improve clinical practice skills for clinical students after graduation. Methods Computer retrieval was conducted to search for controlled studies comparing PBL with non-PBL. The quality of the included studies was critically evaluated and data were analyzed. Results A total of 16 articles were included. The results showed that in integrated capabilities, PBL teaching was superior to traditional teaching methods. Whether in self-evaluation or objective evaluation, in terms of legal and ethical aspects of health care, research and presentation skills and ability to solve problem, PBL teaching was superior to non-PBL-learning methods. But in other aspects, it was yet controversial whether PBL-learning was better than non-PBL-learning. Conclusion Problem-based learning could improve clinical practice skills for clinical students after graduation. However, most trials included are of low quality, so large-scale randomized controlled trials of higher quality are needed to confirm this.
Objective To explore the effectiveness of situational experiential teaching mode in emergency internship teaching. Methods Interns from the Department of Emergency, Jiangyou Fifth People’s Hospital from July 2022 to May 2023 were selected as the research subjects. The interns were randomly divided into a trial group and a control group using a random number table method. The trial group adopted a situational experiential teaching mode, while the control group adopted a traditional teaching mode. Theoretical knowledge testing, clinical comprehensive ability assessment, and clinical information feedback were used to evaluate the effectiveness of different teaching methods. Results A total of 90 interns were included, with 45 people in each group, aged 18-23 years old. Both groups consist of 18 clinical medicine students and 27 clinical nursing students. There was no statistically significant difference in academic performance in school between the two groups of interns (P>0.05). The theoretical knowledge test score (92.98±2.71 vs. 85.29±6.24), clinical comprehensive ability assessment score (90.52±2.58 vs. 83.35±5.25) and clinical feedback (44 excellent and 1 fine in the trial group vs. 25 excellent, 5 fine, and 15 poor in the control group) of the trial group were better than those in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusions The situational experiential teaching mode can enhance interns’ learning interest, improve memory effectiveness, help students master theoretical knowledge, and enhance their comprehensive abilities in clinical evaluation and decision-making. It is worth promoting in clinical practice.
【摘要】 目的 分析临床实习对护理本科生专业认同的影响，探讨提高专业认同的措施。 方法 2010年6—10月，对某综合性大学60名2007级普通全日制护理本科生进行抽样调查，评价其实习前1个月和实习后3个月的专业认同情况，比较实习前、后的变化并分析影响因素。 结果 实习后专业认同的专业价值观得分[（3.13±0.85）分]高于实习前[（2.78±1.00）分]，实验专业期望得分[（12.09±2.13）分]低于实习前[（13.13±1.30）分]，差异有统计学意义（P=0.045，0.002）；而专业认识、情感、意志、技能和专业认同总分方面，实习前、后差异无统计学意义（Pgt;0.05）；其影响因素由强到弱依次为:带教老师（37.04%）、实际的护理工作（33.33%）、实习科室（22.22%）、他人态度（7.41%）。 结论 临床实习可提高护理本科生的专业价值观，带教老师及实际护理工作对专业认同影响较大。【Abstract】 Objective To analyze the effect of clinical practice on student nurses’ professional identity and explore measures to develop their professional identity. Methods Convenience sampling was used to select 60 general full-time student nurses who entered a comprehensive university in 2007. Then we assessed their professional identity at the time of one month before, and three months after clinical practice, compared the two results, and analyzed the related factors. Results The score of professional value dimension after clinical practice was higher than before (3.13±0.85 vs. 2.78±1.00, P=0.045), while the professional expectation dimension was lower than before (12.09±2.13 vs. 13.13±1.30, P=0.002), and the differences in above-mentioned indexes were statistically significant. There was no statistical difference before and after clinical practice in professional knowledge, professional affection, professional volition, professional skill dimensions, and total score of professional identity (Pgt;0.05). The related factors in a order from b to weak were clinical teacher (37.04%), practice work (33.33%), training department (22.22%), and others’ attitudes (7.41%). Conclusion Clinical practice may improve professional values but impair professional expectations of the student nurses, and clinical teacher and practice work have a great effect on student nurses’ professional identity.
