Long-terms Effects of Simulation-based Ultrasound Training: A Randomized Trial

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The clinical effects of simulation-based ultrasound training has not yet been explored. To examine the long-term effects of training, we plan to conduct a trial, where half of all new residents are randomized to simulation-based training and the other half to traditional clinical training only. The effects are assessed after two months of practice by evaluating two ultrasound scans performed by the residents. These scans are subsequently evaluated by a blinded consultant gynecologist and rated using the Objective Structured Assessment of Ultrasound Skills, which has been validated in previous studies.
