Feasibility and Safety of a Novel Leg Exercise Apparatus for Venous Thromboembolism Prophylaxis after Total Joint Arthroplasty of the Lower Extremities-A Pilot Study

Application Value of the Workshop Practice Teaching Method Based on Target-Oriented Study Modules on the Internet in Orthopedic Rehabilitation

Objective

To explore the application value of the workshop practice teaching method based on target-oriented study modules on the internet in orthopedic rehabilitation.

Methods

Thirty interns (2019-2020) in the rehabilitation department of our hospital were selected as the control group, another thirty interns (2021) in the rehabilitation department of our hospital were selected as the experimental group, and their materials were retrospectively reviewed. Both groups were given the three-month practice teaching. Besides, the conventional practice teaching method was applied to the control group, and the workshop practice teaching method based on target-oriented study modules on the internet was applied to the experimental group. After the practice teaching, the united examination paper and assessment table of the rehabilitation operation process were used to evaluate the interns' scores of theoretical knowledge about orthopedic rehabilitation, scores of practical skills, and comprehensive scores of clinical practice in the two groups. The evaluation team consisting of 5 guiding experts in the scientific research office assessed the teaching quality of the two methods.

Results

Compared with the control group, the experimental group had a notably higher score of theoretical knowledge about orthopedic rehabilitation, higher score of practical skills, and higher comprehensive score of clinical practice (92.47 ± 4.81 vs. 86.43 ± 5.12, 91.30 ± 5.68 vs. 81.53 ± 7.21, and 91.88 ± 2.45 vs. 83.98 ± 4.42, P < 0.001). According to the evaluation team, the teaching quality of the experimental group was observably higher than that in the control group (P < 0.05), and there was no remarkable difference in the scores of teachers' performance between the two groups (P > 0.05).

Conclusion

The workshop practice teaching method based on target-oriented study modules on the internet, as a high-quality “Internet+” practice teaching mode, can improve the orthopedic interns' scores of theoretical knowledge and practical operation ability and enhance their comprehensive qualities of orthopedic rehabilitation in all respects.
