The control group received traditional lecture-based learning (LBL), while the observation group was taught with PBL combined with LBL, and both groups underwent an 18‑month training period. Results: The scores of theoretical examination, practical skill assessment, and teaching satisfaction in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: The PBL teaching method can effectively enhance the theoretical knowledge, clinical skills, and overall competence of trainees in geriatric cardiovascular medicine, and thus deserves wider application.PBL teaching method,Geriatric cardiovascular medicine,Resident standardized training,Clinical skills,Teaching effect
