Study Summary

This trial aims to assess the knowledge and skills of emergency medicine doctors in performing a specific type of nerve block using ultrasound guidance. They will do this by conducting a simulation workshop. The goal is to determine

Who is the study for?
This trial is for emergency medicine attending and resident physicians looking to improve their skills in performing ultrasound-guided nerve blocks. Specifically, it's not open to ED nurses, technicians, or advanced practice physicians.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests a training program that teaches doctors how to do an ultrasound-guided serratus anterior nerve block using a low-fidelity simulation. It aims to standardize this training to enhance patient care through better use of point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) and critical procedures.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial focuses on medical education rather than direct patient treatment, there are no traditional side effects involved. However, participants may experience the stress of learning new techniques or fatigue from intensive training sessions.
