About This Point-of-care Ultrasound Study in Durham

This study is a prospective cohort study implementing a point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) simulation case-based workshop in emergency (EM) physicians at different training levels as an educational and competency-based assessment tool. The investigators incorporate elements of Miller's pyramid (second and third levels of "knows how" and "shows how") and the latter part of Kern's six step model framework for curriculum development (intervention implementation and student assessment, program evaluation, and feedback). The investigators will compare pre-/post-workshop knowledge and post-OSCE (Objective Structured Clinical Exam) technical skills scores. The investigators will also collect demographic data on baseline POCUS scans completed, training level, interest in ultrasound fellowship, monthly performed clinical POCUS scans, etc. The standardized simulation cases for EM POCUS training can then be generalized for use at any program globally to improve clinical training and patient care.
