Exploring medical student perceptions of a video-modified Peyton’s 4-step technique for teaching spinal and neurological examinations
The video-modified Peyton's 4-step technique was perceived by students as a well-structured and engaging method for learning spinal and neurological examinations. Its adaptability to small group settings and integration of video-based instruction were well received and considered beneficial for understanding the procedural steps. While students reported increased confidence, this finding should be interpreted with caution given the cross-sectional design of the study. Incorporating this framework into medical curricula may enhance the delivery of clinical skills training, and future research should explore its impact through longitudinal and comparative studies.
