Objective To summarize the online practice teaching experience in laboratory medicine during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) epidemic, and explore a new practice teaching mode of laboratory medicine which can provide a reference for improving the efficiency and quality of laboratory medicine education. Methods From June 8th, 2020 to June 30th, 2020, an online questionnaire survey was conducted in teachers and students who participated in online internship teaching and learning during the COVID-19 epidemic to evaluate the effect of online internship teaching and compare the advantages and disadvantages of online and offline internships. ResultsA total of 65 valid questionnaires were collected from 35 students and 30 teachers. There was no statistically significant difference in the satisfaction scores of intern students between online and offline internships [median (minimum, maximum): 100 (80, 100) vs. 100 (80, 100), P>0.05]. Among the teachers surveyed, 90.0% thought that the pre-teaching preparation for online internship teaching was more complicated and time-consuming, 60.0% thought that the online teaching was more difficult, and 63.3% thought that online internship could not achieve the expected results. Both the teachers and students believed that online and offline internships had their own advantages and disadvantages, and they could learn from each other. Conclusions The present online practice model cannot replace the traditional offline practice. A diversified practice model combining online and offline can help further develop and improve medical laboratory practice teaching.
Objective To systematically review the impact of Beijing's comprehensive reform of medical consumption linkage on medical expenses, hospital services, and hospital income. Methods Databases including CNKI, WanFang Data, VIP, CBM, PubMed, and Web of Science were searched to collect empirical research on evaluating the impact of Beijing's comprehensive reform of medical consumption linkage on patient medical expenses and hospital operation (service volume and income structure) from June 15th, 2019 to August 15th, 2021. A descriptive analysis was performed after two reviewers independently screened the literature and extracted data. Results A total of 23 studies were included, and most of them found a relatively small change in the average outpatient and emergency medical expenses after the reform. However, the average inpatient expenses in some hospitals showed an increasing trend; the service volume of most hospitals increased slightly, and the income structure was optimized (e.g., surgery and other medical technology services revenue and its proportion increased). Conclusion The comprehensive reform of the medical consumption linkage in Beijing is the practice of deepening the reform of the medical service price mechanism. Based on the summary of the reform effect, it is recommended to further improve the price mechanism, improve service quality, and promote hierarchical diagnosis and treatment.
Global Minimum Essential Requirements (GMER) is focused on training medical students to equip them with the scientific foundation of medicine, clinical techniques, a doctor’s professional ethos, social sciences, health economics, medical information management and communication skills, etc. Based on GMER and its evaluation and through the integration of GMER’s seven requirements into the objectives of the clinical-medicine major, Shanxi Medical University is reforming medical education to carry forward high quality education in a comprehensive way. These reforms include adjustments in the content, methods and means of the teaching in order to improve teaching conditions and optimize the curriculum structure, and to enhance the quality of education. At the same time the management system is being reformed and sustainability-featured mechanisms of management and operation are being created, to make simulated hospital a base wherein GMER is fully followed. Simulated hospital for clinical teaching is built to cultivate the students’ abilities in clinical thinking and clinical education. This takes into full consideration training in professional quality, the cultivation of students’ comprehensive ability and GMER’s aim of reaching the final objective, namely, the following four transformations of the students: from essential knowledge to clinical practice, from single technique to all-round ability, from patterning thought to integrated and innovative thought and from a student of clinical medicine to a professional doctor. The objective is to fulfill the task of teaching clinical medicine in a more favorable way, promoting the reform and development of China’s medical education and keeping pace with changes in medical education elsewhere in the world.
Objective To provide a reference for the best evidence-based medicine (EBM) education modelby retrospective analysis and summary the EBM education model of the EBM center of Lanzhou University for medicalpostgraduates. Methods To utilize students’ spare time we changed the traditional teaching method, and instead used problem based learning and academic discussions to teach postgraduates how to design and apply research. Results Sixtytwo postgraduates were trained and completed 73 research papers and registered 33 Cochrane systematic reviews. Twentythree papers were published in foreign journals (SCI) as first authors, 34 papers were published in domestic journals. Five students received awards in the academic conference of Lanzhou University. Conclusion Medical students will benefit from taking part in EBM research. This education model will help them not only understand the methods of clinical research and EBM and improve the quality of their research and their cooperative skills, but also master related clinical knowledge.

The teaching of Clinical Pharmacology plays a very important role in medical education. In this article, we introduce our exploration and practice in Clinical Pharmacology course in West China Hospital of Sichuan University, which combines Good Clinical Practice with teaching methods such as problem-based learning and case-based learning. Furthermore, we analyze the actual effects in optimizing teaching content, renewing teaching mode, and improving teachers’ teaching ability, etc. We hope this article could provide new ideas for the teaching reform of undergraduate Clinical Pharmacology course.
Hospital trusteeship means that the property owners of the hospital, through the form of contract and for the purpose of value preservation and proliferation, authorize a corporation or human being with strong administrative management capabilities and risk-bearing abilities to manage the hospital. With the deepening medical reform, the model has been gradually widely used. In this context, a well-known public hospital became the trustee of a newly established comprehensive private hospital. Taking the greatest advantage of its medical quality management, the trustee used SWOT (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats) analysis to develop efficient decision-making mechanism, strengthened the process optimization transformation, and improved the innovative means of information technology for the development of the new hospital, which has achieved very good results.
The Second People’s Hospital of Yibin was taken over by West China Hospital of Sichuan University into its close hospital alliance, and simultaneously undertook the task of construction of regional hospital alliance in Yibin city. The article introduces the experiences of the Second People’s Hospital of Yibin in the high-quality development of novel healthcare system. Led by West China Hospital of Sichuan University and based on all-level medical institutions in Yibin, the Second People’s Hospital of Yibin preliminarily established a four-level hierarchical medical system as “province, city, county, village” model, according to the guide of governments within the whole region. It aims to propose a “Yibin model exploration” in hospital alliance construction based on the western regional situation.
