Abstract：Objective To analyze the learning curve of establishing an acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in mice, with an eye on the importance of laboratory technicians in the training of medical postgraduates. Methods Four volunteers with no operation basis were involved to establish AMI models of mice which were evaluated from the preoperative mortality, accuracy, the required time and stability. Results After at least 1 months of training, the preoperative mortality of mice was reduced to a reasonable range ( less than 5%);after at least six months of training, operations can be done in (20±2) min. Conclusion Laboratory technicians play an important role in the training of medical postgraduates, especially in some of demanding platform techniques.
