Cardiac Ultrasound Training for Medical Students Utilizing Drawing and Ward-Based Instruction
We demonstrated that a brief training session followed by self-directed ward-based practice improved cardiac ultrasound skills in undergraduate medical students. Participants felt more confident identifying cardiac anatomy, and a large proportion felt the ultrasound training helped with other learning objectives on the cardiology rotation.
