Online app for ultrasound training for internal medicine residents
This trial tests an online app that helps doctors in training learn ultrasound skills. It may make it easier for them to get certified in ultrasound, which is required for their specialty in Switzerland.

This study tests a head-mounted device that guides doctors remotely while they learn or practice a focused ultrasound exam called eFAST, which is used in emergencies. It aims to see if this technology helps training doctors perform the exam correctly, which could lead to better training methods.
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 a hands-on ultrasound training workshop for emergency medicine physicians. It aims to improve their skills using simulation cases.
