Longitudinal point-of-care ultrasound training program for emergency medicine faculty in Oman: a Kirkpatrick model approach

A structured, longitudinal POCUS training program substantially improved faculty competency and achieved a 100% certification success rate. It highlights the educational value of structured POCUS training for faculty. However, further multicenter studies are warranted to assess long-term retention of skills and downstream effects on trainee performance and patient care.

Abstract

A structured, longitudinal POCUS training program substantially improved faculty competency and achieved a 100% certification success rate. It highlights the educational value of structured POCUS training for faculty. However, further multicenter studies are warranted to assess long-term retention of skills and downstream effects on trainee performance and patient care.
