Abstract: Objective To evaluate “sequential theory” combined with “clinical simulation” method in teaching ultrasound-guided musculoskeletal intervention therapy. Methods Thirty-four students who participated in the “Musculoskeletal Ultrasound and New Technology Excellent Class” organized by the Department of Ultrasound Medicine of Peking University Third Hospital from November 20 to November 24, 2023 were selected as the study objects. After “sequential theory” and “clinical simulation” training, the trainees joined theoretical examination, ultrasound operation and model puncture examination, then a questionnaire survey was carried out. Results The theoretical and practical test scores of 34 students were all qualified, and there was no statistical difference in theoretical and practical test Results among students with different educational backgrounds, professional titles and whether they came from basic hospitals. The questionnaire showed that the students were satisfied with the content of the class. Conclusions The application of “sequential theory” and “clinical simulation” Methods improves training outcomes of musculoskeletal ultrasound interventional therapy and shortens the learning curve of students.
