Summary

A 2-by-2 factorial cluster randomized controlled trial was performed to: 1) Compare the effects of supervised (coached) versus unsupervised (no coach) administration of the DKA simulator on trainees' knowledge of DKA management immediately after (primary outcome) using the simulation and 3 and 6 months post-intervention (secondary outcome); 2) Determine whether a preselected number of DKA simulator practice cases or a self-selected number (self-regulated learning) of DKA simulator practice cases will result in superior trainee knowledge with respect to DKA management immediately after (primary outcome) and 3 and 6 months post-intervention (secondary outcome).
