Abstract: Objective: To explore the application effect of scenario teaching method in cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR) teaching for postgraduates of stomatology. Methods: 80 postgraduate students of grade 2021 from the School of Stomatology of Chongqing Medical University were selected as the research objects. The experimental group included 40 students of class 1, and the control group included 40 students of class 2. The scenario teaching method for CPR teaching was adopted for the experimental group, while the traditional teaching method was adopted for the control group. At the end of the course, the outcomes of theoretic test and skill evaluation about CPR were compared between the two groups. And the recognition of the two groups was evaluated through a questionnaire survey. Results: CPR theoretic test and skill evaluation scores of the experimental group were better than those of the control group (P<0.001). And the students in the experimental group of the scenario teaching method had significantly higher recognition than those in the control group. Conclusions: In the teaching of cardiopulmonary resuscitation for postgraduates of stomatology, the effect of the scenario teaching method is obviously better than the traditional teaching method.
