Article Synopsis
  • Tutorial videos from a first-person perspective (FP-POV) are popular for Pediatric residents learning lumbar puncture (LP) but their effectiveness hasn't been thoroughly tested.
  • An assigned cohort study compared FP-POV instructional videos to traditional in-person demonstrations, assessing the residents' performance through blinded reviews and surveys on confidence and usefulness.
  • Results showed that residents who used the FP-POV method scored significantly higher in LP assessments (median score of 17 vs. 14), indicating its educational effectiveness, but further research with more participants is necessary.
