Physicians’ clinical experience and perspectives following a pilot, blended learning, point of care ultrasound course in Ghana- a mixed methods analysis

Our new blended learning curriculum met the needs of physicians caring for patients with general and specialist presentations, with strong reported positive experience of improved bedside diagnostic capabilities, especially for the large proportion of patients unable to afford or access alternative diagnostic tests. Their experience drives the need for further training and for solutions to current barriers of equipment availability, training costs and lack of quality assurance mechanisms.
