How many is enough? Measuring the number of FAST exams needed by emergency medicine trainees to reach competence
This study demonstrated that when constructive feedback on each FAST exam was given, the average first-year emergency medicine resident achieves competency in performing FAST exams independently after completing 10-12 (average of 11.23) FAST exams. Further research is required to validate the findings.
