Abstract

Abstract: Objective To explore the role of narrative medicine teaching in orthopaedic clinical clerkship. Methods Totally 87 medical students of “5+3”integrative mode of grade 2013 of Shanxi Medical University were enrolled in the teaching of narrative medicine in orthopedics clinical clerkship. The empathy level of students before and after teaching was measured by Jefferson scale of empathy, and the students' approval of teaching were investigated through questionnaires. Results The score of empathy after teaching was (114.5±10.9), which was higher than that before teaching (101.2±12.0), the difference was statistically significant (t=21.83, P<0.05). The results of the questionnaire survey showed that 75.9% (66/87) had a strong interest in narrative medicine teaching, and 98.9% (86/87) suggested continuing the teaching. Conclusions The teaching of narrative medicine in orthopaedics clinical clerkship can improve students' empathy ability, and well accepted by the students'.
