Abstract

Objective To construct the dynamic assessment system for practice base of professional master's degree in clinical medicine. Methods The teaching managers, clinical experts, postgraduate tutors and postgraduates of seven tertiary general hospitals with standardized training qualifications for residents in Hunan province were selected. Using the literature review and site investigation, we drafted the framework and score-factor of the dynamic assessment indicator system and adopted the percentage system to construct the assessment system. Results We interviewed and discussed with 28 teaching managers, 21 clinical experts, 35 graduate tutors and 112 graduate students; the response rate of all interviewees was 100%. The dynamic assessment system was composed of 4 first-level indicators and 20 second-level indicators; the score-factor of the primary indicator was 25%, and the score-factor of the secondary indicator was 5%. Conclusion The established dynamic assessment system has reasonable indicators and strong operability, and can provide useful reference.
