Abstract：Objective To investigate the preliminary effect of the modified Peyton's four-step teaching approach on the basic skills of musculoskeletal ultrasound of elbow joint for primary health sergeants.Methods A total of 40 primary health sergeants trained in author's hospital from March 2022 to December 2023 were collected as objects.Twenty primary health sergeants in 2022 were included in the control group,and the traditional teaching method was adopted;20 students in 2023 were included in the observation group,and modified Peyton's four-step teaching approach was used,after training,the teaching effect was assessed by learning efficacy self-evaluation,teaching efficiency was analyzed by teaching satisfaction questionnaire and the objective structured assessment of ultrasound skills(OSAUS)mode was used to assess the skill opera-tion between two groups,and OSAUS mode was used to assess the skill operation again 3 months after the training,and the retention of skills was observed.Results The self-assessment of learning efficacy,teaching satisfaction,skill mastery and skill retention in the observation group were better than those in the control group,and the differences between the two groups were statistically significant(all P＜0.05).Conclusion The modified Peyton's four-step teaching approach in the group teaching of elbow joint musculoskeletal ultrasound can effectively improve the learning confidence of primary health sergeants,strengthen interaction and cooperation,stimulate learning motivation,make primary health sergeants better mas-ter musculoskeletal ultrasound related skills,and has advantages in the short and medium term skills retention compared to the traditional teaching method,which has a positive significance for strengthening the strength of medical support at the bat-tle site.
