Rheumatology training and awareness among undergraduates in Indian medical schools: a multicenter observational study

This study highlights a significant knowledge gap about musculoskeletal conditions among students, with interns showing greater confidence than final-year students. The confidence in examining rheumatological conditions was lower than other conditions indicating inadequate training. These findings suggest revising medical curricula to include more comprehensive teaching in rheumatology and practical training in joint examination. Addressing these gaps is crucial for improving medical education and patient care.
