Randomized Controlled Trial
[Evaluation of the use of a simulation software in the learning of cardiopulmonary auscultation in undergraduate medical students].
Medsounds™ software allows to create an auscultation learning platform, by providing real pre-recorded cardiopulmonary sounds on virtual chests. The study aimed at comparing the skills in cardiopulmonary auscultation between students who benefited from this platform and students who did not have access to it. ⋯ The supervised use of an online auscultation simulation software in addition to the traditional clinical training seems to improve the auscultation performances of undergraduated medical students.
