Abstract

Introduction: this research examines the impact of case-based scenario simulation instruction on intern physicians' proficiency in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).

Objectives: to compare the effectiveness of conventional teaching methods versus case-based scenario simulation techniques on the CPR skills of intern doctors.

Method: the study involved 62 intern doctors at The First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi University of Chinese Medicine, divided into two groups of 31: control and observation. The instruction period lasted three months, with the control group receiving conventional teaching and the observation group using case-based scenario simulations. Post-instruction, the groups were assessed on course content, the impact of training, and satisfaction levels.

Results: the observation group showed significantly better performance in theoretical knowledge, scenario simulation, and practical exams compared to the control group. The passing rates for chest compression, electric defibrillation exams, total mastery of theoretical knowledge, and overall practical competence were all higher in the observation group. Additionally, the overall satisfaction rate and evaluation of the teaching effect were significantly greater in the observation group.

Conclusions: case-based scenario simulation teaching positively influences the CPR skills of intern doctors and is an effective method to improve teaching outcomes and trainee satisfaction
