Background: Supervised Teaching Clinics (STCs) have emerged as an innovative approach to medical education, particularly in specialties like gynecology, where hands-on experience is crucial. Traditional clinical rotations often leave students in passive roles, limiting their active participation and the development of essential clinical skills.

Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the impact of STCs on the clinical competencies and professional development of medical students within a gynecological clinic, comparing the outcomes with those of traditional clinic shadowing.

Objective To explore the effects of peer assistance model based on mini-clinical evaluation exercise (Mini-CEX) combined with direct observation of procedural skill (DOPS) in the teaching of autoimmune liver diseases (AILDs). Methods A total of 115 residents receiving training in the Department of Gastroenterology of Xijing Hospital were selected and divided into a control group and an experimental group according to the order in which they came to the department. The control group received traditional teaching mode, while the experimental group underwent peer assistance model based on Mini-CEX combined with DOPS.

Article Synopsis
  • Traditional postgraduate medical assessments often focus on cognitive skills but overlook psychomotor and affective competencies; the mini-CEX aims to fill this gap by providing immediate feedback on clinical and communication skills.
  • In a study with 10 postgraduate internal medicine students and 14 faculty members, 63 mini-CEX sessions led to significant improvements in clinical and humanistic skills among students, with high satisfaction rates from both students (90%) and faculty (71.4%).
  • Overall, the mini-CEX has proven to be a feasible and accepted tool for assessing neurology cases, showing promising results in enhancing important medical skills despite some concerns about its subjectivity.

Objective: The objective of the study was to investigate the application effect of scenario simulation teaching based on the Mini-Clinical Evaluation Exercise (Mini-CEX) and direct observation of procedural skills (DOPS) rating scales in urology clinical apprenticeship training.

Materials And Methods: A total of 32 students from the class of 2015-2017 who completed their traineeship in the Department of Urology of our hospital were selected and divided into a research group and a routine group. Routine teaching was implemented for the trainees in the control group, while situational simulation teaching based on the Mini-CEX and DOPS scoring scales was implemented for the trainees in the research group.
