Highlights

● A competency based medical education (CBME) online resource platform is developed to bridge gaps in post graduate anesthesiology education, enhancing both curriculum content and teaching approaches.

● Classical and dynamic knowledge modules are incorporated to support competency-based learning, fostering systematic, self-directed, and lifelong learning.

● Innovative hybrid teaching models and real-time access to updated resources have significant potential to improve clinical decision-making and practical skills.

Abstract

To bridge the gap between curriculum content and clinical needs, as well as address the insufficient quality of online educational resources in current postgraduate anesthesiology education, this study proposes a “library-style” network resource platform for anesthesia graduate students, grounded in the competency-based medical education framework. The platform’s primary focus is “classical knowledge module”, which covers six core domains in anesthesiology, such as clinical anesthesia management, anesthesia technical operation, and anesthesia pharmacology. The platform also integrates ‘Internet+’ technology, creating a multifunctional network resource to support comprehensive learning. The platform is characterized by modularized knowledge, diversified resources, dynamic updates, and universal accessibility, enabling postgraduate students to engage in independent and lifelong learning. This flexibility fosters the innovation of hybrid teaching models, combining both online and offline components. The study aims to strengthen the competency-oriented anesthesia training system, providing robust support for both clinical practice and academic research.
