ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is looking at how effective an online ultrasound training program is for new emergency medicine doctors, known as post-graduate year (PGY) trainees. The study will analyze test scores and participation records from 2018 to 2025 to determine if combining online learning with hands-on practice improves their skills in using ultrasound, which is a tool that helps doctors see inside the body.

To be eligible for this study, participants need to be PGY trainees who took part in the ultrasound training program during the specified time and have complete records of their participation and test results. Unfortunately, senior residents, attending physicians, or medical students cannot participate, nor can anyone with missing or incorrect data. If you are a PGY trainee in this program, this study could help shape how ultrasound training is taught in the future, making it more effective for new doctors.
