Abstract: Objective To explore the application effect of mind mapping in the knowledge and skill training of nosocomial infection prevention and control for medical students, and to provide reference basis for the training mode of medical students for nosocomial infection prevention and control. Methods The study used the experimental control method and the questionnaire survey method.A total of 204 students from July 2017 to June 2018 were selected for internship, rotation or standardized training in Pediatrics Department of Yongchuan Hospital of Chongqing Medical University. They were divided into experimental group (102 students) and control group (102 students) according to time sequence.The experimental group used mind mapping training methods, while the control group used traditional training methods.The two groups of students were assessed and joined a questionnaire survey after the training. Results The theoretical scores: (76.82±3.88) in the control group and (88.18±3.81) in the experimental group. Practice skills score: (85.22±4.33) in the control group and (92.43±2.68) in the experimental group.Hand hygiene compliance rate: 62.4% in the control group, 91.8% in the experimental group.Student satisfaction: (77.55±6.37) in the control group and (93.20±3.62) in the experimental group, the difference of the two groups was statistically significant (all P<0.05). Conclusions Mind mapping not only improves medical students' awareness and operational skills of nosocomial infection prevention and control knowledge, but also improves their hand hygiene compliance and satisfaction, thus further guaranteeing the medical safety of children.
