Abstract

Against the Healthy China 2030 Initiative and New Medical Education, conventional Obstetrics and Gynecology teaching has problems like fragmented TCM-Western medicine integration and inadequate clinical thinking. For 2021 undergraduate Clinical Medicine students at Shaoyang University, this study built a blended curriculum ("Western medicine as mainstay, TCM as supplement") with four-dimensional reforms. Controlled experiments showed the blended group had significantly higher theoretical scores (85.62±7.18), OSCE scores (88.24±6.31), and learning satisfaction (92.5%) than the traditional group (P<0.01), with improved clinical abilities. This study provides a feasible scheme for local medical colleges' TCM-Western medicine teaching reform.
