Abstract: Objective To explore the application of the peer assistance combined with CBL teaching method to improve the effect of standardized training for residents in emergency medicine. Methods A total of 96 residents in the Emergency Department of Tacheng Hospital of China Medical University were randomly and equally distributed to two groups. The observation group(n=48)was trained with the peer assistance combined with CBL teaching method, and the control group(n=48)was trained with the traditional method. After the training, the theoretical test scores and basic clinical skills evaluation scores were compared between the two groups, and a questionnaire survey was performed to evaluate the teaching methods. Results The theoretical test scores and skill evaluation scores of the observation group were significantly higher than that of the control group. The students' self-evaluation of self-learning ability, clinical thinking, clinical skills, team work and doctor-patient communication in the observation group were better than that of the traditional teaching group. Conclusion Application of the peer assistance combined with CBL teaching method can improve the teaching effect of standardized clinical training for residents in emergency medicine, and it is available to be applied for clinical training in the future.
