简要总结
The investigators hypothesise that simulation-based training will have initial educational benefits and in coherence with the traditional apprenticeship model will heighten the educational end-level: That training on the simulator before clinical education will prepare the trainee for practice and thereby support more effective learning.
详细描述
This study will be registered at ClincalTrials.gov and reported according to the CONSORT statement.
Setting: Clinical training will forego unaltered as current practice at the department of the individual resident's employment. The simulated training will be held as individual training sessions on the Schallware Ultrasound simulator (station 64; version 010013) placed at the Copenhagen Academy for Education and Simulation (CAMES), Rigshospitalet. Testing will be done on both the simulator at the Simulationcentre at Rigshospitalet, CAMES and on real life patients in the departments of radiology where the residents are employed.
Population: Participants are residents embarking on the first year of their specialized radiological training before any formalized ultrasound training. Enrollment is voluntary and in collaboration with their department of employment.
Intervention and controlled conditions:
A total of 22 residents at the beginning of their specialized radiological education and before their focused ultrasound training are randomised for two educational groups.

研究组 & 干预措施
Intervention group
Simulation-based training in nine modules with optional training times and ending with an obligatory certification test before traditional training is started. Traditional training time unaltered: six weeks.
干预措施: Simulation-based training (Other)
Traditional training
Six weeks focused stay at an ultrasound ward with day to day one-on-one supervision (current practise)
