Medical student training with next-generation handheld ultrasound devices – hands on examination of fetal biometry in obstetrics

The reliability between the examinations using the SUD and PUD were high but lower than the results observed for trained physicians. Therefore, the implementation of an additional module for portable ultrasound teaches the students to reliably examine basic obstetric parameters and provides a solid basis for further training and improvement of ultrasound skills in use of PUD.

Abstract

The reliability between the examinations using the SUD and PUD were high but lower than the results observed for trained physicians. Therefore, the implementation of an additional module for portable ultrasound teaches the students to reliably examine basic obstetric parameters and provides a solid basis for further training and improvement of ultrasound skills in use of PUD.
