Implementation and Evaluation of a Perceptual Learning Module on Visual Estimation of LVEF

NCT03245567 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 52

Last updated 2025-07-04

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This study is designed to:

1. Implement a Web platform intended to host perceptual learning modules (PLMs)
2. Implement and assess a PLM designed to improve the capacity of first-year residents and fourth-year medical students to visually estimate the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) with transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) images.

The hypothesis of the study is that the PLM will improve the visual assessment of LVEF by TEE in junior residents and medical students.
