Popis: | Context Prior research has demonstrated that residents have poor clinical skills in cardiology and respirology. It is not clear how these skills can be improved because the number of patients with suitable clinical findings whose cooperation might help residents to better develop these clinical skills is limited. Objectives Our objective was to evaluate the effect of training on a cardiorespiratory simulator (CRS) on skills acquisition, retention and transfer. Methods We randomly allocated 146 students to CRS training in either chest pain or dyspnoea and compared each student’s performance on the clinical presentation in which he or she had received CRS training with performance on the control presentation. Results Immediately after training, students were more accurate in identifying abnormal clinical findings on the CRS (70.0% versus 52.2%; d = 7.6, P |
