Effect of mini-course training in communication and teamwork on non-technical skills score in emergency residents: a prospective experimental study.

Background: Non-technical skill (NTS) teaching is a recent development in medical education that should be applied in medical education, especially in medical specialties that involve critically ill patients, resuscitation, and management, to promote patient safety and improve quality of care. Our study aimed to compare the effects of mini-course training in NTS versus usual practice among emergency residents.

Methods: In this prospective (non-randomized) experimental study, emergency residents in the 2021-2022 academic year at Ramathibodi Hospital, a tertiary care university hospital, were included as participants.

Pre-clinical medical student cardiac point-of-care ultrasound curriculum based on the American Society of Echocardiography recommendations: a pilot and feasibility study.

Background: Cardiac point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) training has been integrated into medical school curricula. However, there is no standardized cardiac POCUS training method for medical students. To address this issue, the American Society of Echocardiography (ASE) proposed a framework for medical student cardiac POCUS training.
