Use to Problem based learning increase case reports the pass rate Background: The clinical ladder systems for nurses can effectively enhance the professional morale of nursing staff. In Taiwan, there are four levels of clinical ladder systems (N1-N4) and clinical nurses need academic ability to demonstrate a case report in writing is required for clinical nurses so that they can promote their career development. Many nurses have nursing experiences without good writing ability to detail a care report. The lack of ability to demonstrate a case report in writing becomes the bottleneck for nurses who want to be promoted in their career development. In our unit only accounts for 12% of the unit at the N3 level in 2016 years, and only passed one case report. Aims: Through the Problem based learning (PBL) of case reports will improve the pass rate and increase the willingness to write a case report. Methods: It will last for 10 months from February 2018. The participating members will be 4 co-workers, 1 teacher of nurse and 1 preceptor. They will discuss 1-2 times a month. Before each discussion, the preceptor will give the progress and direction of the discussion. During the discussion, the progress of the report is shared by the co-works and feedback is provided by the teacher and other members, and the group can be instantly shared by means of cloud, line, etc. Result: After the PBL teaching method, when the four participates reported a pass rate of 75%, the journal was publish 75%, and the poster was published 25%, the four participates satisfaction was 100% after the overall course, and the promotion unit N3 level was 20%. Discussion: The findings revealed that the PBL training program has a significant impact on nurses' case reports and increases the number of articles published in international conference. We suggest that such a teaching program be used in case report Chang, C. C., & Lee, M. Y (2015).
