To get well-informed of the practical skills examination of residents’ standardized training in order to detect problems and improve the quality of training.

A total of 4 484 clinical medical examinees from 2010, 2013 and 2017 in Liaoning province were investigated by questionnaire, from which 4 412 valid questionnaires were collected and the total survey efficiency was 98.39%. The survey included the standardized patient (SP) examination, the small station test, the computer simulated case (CCS) examination and the clinical skill operation test station with parts 20 projects. Excel was used to sort and record the data. SPSS 10.0 software was used for statistical analysis.

All parts of the practical skill assessment was reasonable. The examinees’ satisfaction with the test is showing an upward trend year by year, up to 73.93% in 2017. In the standardized patients examination, the key points of the role play (including the fidelity and simulated authenticity of the physical signs) need be strengthened (14.84% in 2010). Examinees thought the difficulty of computer simulation case examination is increasing year by year. More than 2/3 examinees evaluated the clinical skill operation test station set was reasonable and the difficulty was moderately.

We should further deepen the exploration of standardized patients assessment model; strengthen the medical humanities in training; improve the residents’ clinical thinking; take examination as the guidance and standardize clinical training.
