Official title
Comparative Evaluation of Ultrasound-Guided Femoral Nerve Block Training With Low-Fidelity Low-Cost Simulation Model Among Junior Doctors in Department of Emergency Medicine USM
Overview
To study the effectiveness of low-fidelity ultrasound-guided femoral nerve block training interventions score in knowledge and skills performance among junior doctors in the Department of Emergency Medicine Universiti Sains Malaysia, with the aim of assessing its mean.
Detailed description
1\. To compare the mean score of knowledge of junior doctors in performing ultrasound-guided femoral nerve block in the emergency department pre and post training simulation.
2\. To compare the mean score of skills of junior doctors in performing ultrasound-guided femoral nerve block in the emergency department pre and post training simulation.
3\. To determine the impact of the low-fidelity, low-cost bovine meat-based simulation model for ultrasound-guided femoral nerve block training on confidence among junior doctors working in the emergency department
Interventions
- Behavioral Low-fidelity ultrasound-guided femoral nerve block simulation training
This intervention involves a low-fidelity simulation-based training on ultrasound-guided femoral nerve block (UGFNB) using a bovine meat model. Participants receive a brief lecture followed by a hands-on skills session. The training focuses on anatomical identification, ultrasound imaging, and nerve block technique using the simulated model. Knowledge and skill performance are assessed through multiple-choice questions and an OSCE before and after the intervention.
Primary outcome measures
- Change in knowledge score before and after training [Time frame: Immediately before and after the intervention (within same day)]
Secondary outcome measures (1)
- Change in procedural skill score (OSCE) before and after training [Time frame: Immediately before and after the intervention]
Eligibility criteria
Inclusion criteria
- House Officers currently or previously trained in Department of Emergency Medicine Hospital USM
- Medical Officers who received Housemanship Training in Department of Emergency Medicine Hospital USM within 1 year prior to study
Exclusion criteria
- Participants who have previously underwent training in ultrasound-guided regional nerve block.
Criteria are shown verbatim from the registry (in English). Final eligibility is always assessed by the study center.
