Objective　To investigate the effect of arthroscopic video teaching in clinical practice teaching of sports medicine. Methods　The undergraduate students of clinical medicine in Xinjiang Medical University who received practice teaching from April 2018 to July 2018 were selected and randomly divided into experimental group and control group. Students in the experimental group received arthroscopic video teaching

and those in the control group received traditional teaching. After the teaching ended

examination scores and pass rate were analyzed

and the degree of satisfaction with teaching method among students was also evaluated. Results　Compared with the control group

the experimental group was better at learning the anatomy of tissue and organs

understanding the pathological features and diagnosis of disease

understanding the surgical procedures

memorizing diseases and had better interests and efficiency in learning (P<0.05). The experimental group had a significantly higher degree of satisfaction with teachers than the control group (95.83% vs. 71.42 %

P<0.05). Compared with the control group

the experimental group had significantly higher examination scores of operation skills (87.84±5.35 vs. 73.79±8.72

P<0.05) and pass rate (95.83% vs. 85.71%

P<0.05). Conclusion　The implementation of arthroscopic video teaching can significantly improve students' learning interest

academic scores

and satisfaction with teacher

and therefore

it holds promise for application in clinical practice of sports medicine.
