• Conditions: Teaching Method
• Interventions: Other: Face-to-face; Other: Live-streaming

• Registration Number: NCT06221917
• Lead Sponsor: Pelita Harapan University

Brief Summary

The goal of this observational study is to assess objectively whether teaching for simple wound sutures via Live-Streaming (LS) using Go-pro® has the same effectiveness as the traditional Face-to-face (FTF) teaching. The main question it aims to answer is whether training simple wound suturing skills to surgical clerkships via LS has the same effectiveness as the FTF training.

After initially doing pre-test, participants will be randomized into two groups: LS and FTF. After teaching exposure, the participants will be given 1 week period of self-training to master the skill (as such procedural skills require a period of self training before we examine the effect of teaching exposure). Afterwards, they underwent post-test again with the previously same examiner, using the same OSCE rubric to avoid bias. Researchers will compare if the LS and FTF groups to see if training simple wound suturing skills to surgical clerkships via LS has the same effectiveness as the FTF training.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Post-test Scores	1 week after teaching	Post-test Objective Structured Clinical Exam (OSCE) scores Value ranges from 0 to 60. Higher score means better outcome, and vice versa.
