were randomly divided into control group and observation group. The students in the control group received traditional practice teaching

and those in the observation group received microlecture combined with the traditional practice teaching. The two groups were compared in terms of the scores of theoretical and skill examinations

and the degree of satisfaction with practice teaching was surveyed. Results　The observation group had a significantly higher score of clinical skill examination than the control group (P<0.05). The observation group had a significantly higher degree of satisfaction with the teaching methods of cardiovascular internal medicine than the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion　The introduction of microlecture into the clinical practice teaching of cardiovascular internal medicine can significantly enhance students' mastery of clinical operation skills and improve their satisfaction with practice teaching of cardiovascular internal medicine.
