Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study
Improved medical student satisfaction and test performance with a simulation-based emergency medicine curriculum: a randomized controlled trial.
We determine the effect of a simulation-based curriculum on fourth-year medical student test performance and satisfaction during an emergency medicine clerkship. ⋯ A simulation-based curriculum yielded measurable benefits. Students demonstrated a small improvement in learning and were more satisfied with the simulation-based curriculum compared with group discussion.
