Comparison of In-Person and Telesimulation for Critical Care Training during the COVID-19 Pandemic.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has disrupted medical education for trainees of all levels. Although telesimulation was initially used to train in resource-limited environments, it may be a reasonable alternative for replicating authentic patient experiences for medical students during the COVID-19 pandemic. It is unclear whether a more passive approach through telesimulation training is as effective as traditional in-person simulation training.

Objective

Our aim was to evaluate the effectiveness of in-person versus remote simulation training on learners' comfort with managing critical care scenarios.

Methods

This was a prospective observational cohort study assessing the impact of an in-person versus remote simulation course on volunteer fourth
