The practice and exploration of integrating medical science popularization skills into the clinical training of pediatric resident doctors in China

Abstract In China, with the development of society and the growing public demand for health knowledge, the importance of medical science popularization has become increasingly prominent.An excellent clinician in the new era is not only to treat diseases, but also requires that in addition to the work of disease treatment itself, more people can vividly understand the causes of diseases, clinical manifestations, treatment, and how to prevent diseases through their own science popularization. Therefore,standardized medical science popularization training is particularly important in the training process of medical resident.This study explored the value of integrating medical science popularization skills into the clinical training of pediatric resident trainees, based on the professional characteristics of pediatrics in comprehensive hospitals and the actual situation of pediatric resident trainees' rotational learning in pediatrics.Through questionnaire survey, targeted improvement and design were carried out to analyze the cognition and self-benefit of pediatric resident students' knowledge of popular science, the importance attached to popular science of pediatric residents, how pediatricians in the residential training base should do, as well as the challenges and problems, strategies and suggestions faced by integrating medical science popularization skills into clinical training of pediatric resident students.From these four aspects, this paper summarized how to better integrate medical science skills into clinical training, so as to cultivate residents' awareness and ability of medical science popularization.Pediatric resident trainees not only improve their own medical skills, but also lay a solid foundation for better science popularization work in the future when they go to work in pediatrics.This study provides useful reference and inspiration for further improving the model of combining medical science popularization with clinical training.
