“…9 Assim, enquanto muitos programas de educação médica já dedicaram uma parte de seu currículo à US, outros estão preocupados com custo, acessibilidade e limites para a prática do aluno. 10 Então, se a US é realmente o novo estetoscópio, então expor aos estudantes de medicina essa tecnologia e incentivar as faculdades de medicina, principalmente as nacionais, a incorporarem essa disciplina em seus currículos são ações necessárias e oportunas.…”

O objetivo deste estudo foi analisar o histórico e os fatores associados ao ensino da ultrassonografia point-of-care na graduação de medicina. Trata-se de uma revisão sistemática da literatura, conduzida nas bases de dados PubMed®, Cochrane Library, Portal de Periódicos Capes e Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde, utilizando descritores controlados. Foram inclusos artigos que abordassem os benefícios e/ou entraves do uso da ultrassonografia point-of-care no currículo da graduação de medicina. Foram encontradas 959 referências, sendo que, destas, 42 foram incluídas na análise final; 64,3% eram estudos norte-americanos. Na maioria, os currículos foram implementados do primeiro ao quarto ano (28,6%), no primeiro e segundo ano (17,1%) ou no sexto ano (17,1%) da faculdade. Mostrou-se principalmente que a integração do ensino da ultrassonografia point-of-care na graduação de medicina é viável, já que a ultrassonografia é uma ferramenta de ensino valiosa e bem recebida pelos discentes. Além disso, esse ensino aumenta o conforto dos alunos e a capacidade de obter imagens de ultrassonografia precisas para fins diagnósticos e procedimentais. A incorporação da ultrassonografia point-of-care nos currículos e programas de ensino médico ainda está em desenvolvimento, mas os dados existentes já apontam que a inserção dessa ferramenta no processo de educação médica é possível e apreciada pelos discentes.

“…Studies have shown that these trainers reduce medical errors, reduce training time, and decrease the mental heuristics of turning black and white, two-dimensional ultrasound images into a mental image of a three-dimensional (3D) anatomical structure. 1 Ultrasound trainers assist users in correct ultrasound transducer placement, identifying regional anatomy, and identifying diagnostic findings. Because ultrasound plays an increasing role in clinical settings, these trainers have the potential to play a crucial role in the education of healthcare providers.…”

Introduction: This technical report describes the development of a high-fidelity, open-source ultrasound trainer and showcases its abilities through a proof-of-concept, pilot randomized control trial. The open-source ultrasound trainer (OSUT) aims to enhance anatomical visualization during ultrasound education. The OSUT can attach to any ultrasound transducer, uses minimal hardware, and is able to be used during live patient ultrasound examinations. Methods: After viewing a standardized training video lecture, 24 incoming first-year medical students with no prior ultrasound experience were randomized into a control group given an ultrasound system or an intervention group given the OSUT in addition to an ultrasound system. Both groups were tasked with localizing the thyroid, abdominal aorta, and right kidney on a patient. Performance outcomes were structure localization time, ultrasound image accuracy, and preactivity and postactivity participant confidence. Results: The OSUT decreased right kidney localization time (Kruskal-Wallis, P < 0.001), increased sonographer right kidney accuracy ratings (Mann-Whitney U, U = 10.5, P < 0.05), and increased confidence in structure identification (Mann-Whitney U, U = 37, P = 0.045) and overall ultrasound ability (Wilcoxon signed-rank test, P = 0.007). There was no significant change in localization time, accuracy ratings, or participant confidence for locating the thyroid and abdominal aorta. Conclusions: A high-fidelity, open-source ultrasound trainer was developed to aid healthcare professionals in learning diagnostic ultrasound. The study demonstrated the potential beneficial effects of the OSUT in localizing the right kidney, showcasing its adaptability and accessibility for ultrasound education for certain anatomical structures.

ZusammenfassungDie Simulation diagnostischer und therapeutischer Prozeduren nimmt in der medizinischen Aus- und Weiterbildung einen wachsenden Stellenwert ein und ist auch für das Erlernen von Ultraschallverfahren zunehmend relevant. In der vorliegenden Übersichtsarbeit werden die verschiedenen Simulationsstufen der Ultraschallmethodik und deren technische Grundlagen beschrieben. Zudem erfolgt eine kritische Literaturanalyse mit daraus abgeleiteten Empfehlungen zur Implementierung von Simulationstechniken in die ärztliche Aus- und Weiterbildung im Bereich der Ultraschalldiagnostik. Eine Gegenüberstellung von Vor- und Nachteilen der praktischen Anwendung belegt den Nutzen von Simulationen in Ausbildungssituationen, insbesondere im Kontext individueller Lernumgebungen und pandemiebedingter Kontaktbeschränkungen. Jedoch können die Komplexität der klinischen Untersuchungssituation und die Interaktion mit realen Patienten nur unvollkommen simuliert werden. Zukünftige Anwendungen sollten daher insbesondere für das Wiederholen und Prüfen bereits erlernter Kompetenzen unter Verwendung standardisierter Feedbackmechanismen eingesetzt werden, um begrenzte Weiterbildungsressourcen effektiver zu nutzen.
