A Study on the Application of Clinical Pathway Teaching Method in Teaching Gastroenterology Nursing Interns

Abstract

Objective: To investigate the application effect of the clinical pathway teaching method in the teaching of gastroenterology nursing interns. Methods: 36 interns from the Department of Gastroenterology of our hospital from July 2022 to April 2023 were selected as the study subjects and divided into the control group and the study group (n = 18 each) by randomized grouping method. The control group was given conventional teaching methods and the study group adopted clinical pathway teaching methods. The effect of internship in the two groups was compared. Results: Under the influence of the clinical pathway teaching method, the theoretical knowledge achievement and practical skills of interns in the study group were higher than those in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Compared with the conventional teaching mode, the use of the clinical pathway teaching method in the teaching of nursing interns in gastroenterology can not only realize the optimization and innovation of traditional teaching means, but also mobilize the interns’ enthusiasm, improve their learning interest, and promote the comprehensive improvement of theoretical knowledge and practical skills.
