Online app for ultrasound training in internal medicine residents
This trial tests if an online app helps internal medicine residents learn point-of-care ultrasound (a quick bedside scan). It may be a good fit if you are starting ultrasound training.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a general internal medicine resident working at one of the study sites
- You have worked there for at least 2 months
- You are interested in getting POCUS certification (needed for your specialization in Switzerland)
- You completed a basic ultrasound course (abdominal or emergency)
- You plan to be in a rotation offering POCUS training for at least 3 of the next 6 months

This trial tests whether a head-mounted device can help guide doctors remotely while they practice an emergency ultrasound exam called eFAST. It is designed for resident physicians who already have basic ultrasound training.
This study teaches nurse practitioners and physician assistants in the emergency department how to use a special type of heart ultrasound (called cardiac point-of-care ultrasound). The goal is to help these providers quickly and accurately check the heart at the bedside.
This study teaches medical students and doctors how to perform a specific heart ultrasound measurement (LVOT VTI) on healthy volunteers. Researchers want to see how well beginners can learn and perform this technique.
This study looks at how doctors in intensive care units (ICUs) use ultrasound and manage sound volumes. It aims to improve training and patient care in Swiss hospitals.
Researchers are looking at how Rega rescue teams use a portable ultrasound device (POCUS) in emergencies. If you were treated by Rega and they used this device, your data could help improve emergency care.
This trial tests whether an online ultrasound curriculum helps post-graduate doctors learn better. If you are a PGY trainee who completed an emergency medicine ultrasound training program with full records, you may be eligible.
