Simulation-Based Learning on Clinical Reasoning, Knowledge Retention, and Transfer in Undergraduate Medical Education (SIMCORE)

29. juni 2026 opdateret af: Sibel Zorlu Ozturk, Altinbas University

Does Video-Based Patient Simulation Improve Clinical Reasoning Skills in Medical Students?

This randomized controlled trial evaluates whether a digital, video-based clinical-reasoning simulation improves clinical-reasoning performance compared with conventional lecture-based teaching across multiple clinical disciplines, including orthopedics and ophthalmology.

Within each discipline, participants are randomly allocated 1:1 to an intervention group or a control group. The intervention group learns the assigned topic through an interactive, web-based simulation built on real patient video cases with structured clinical-reasoning steps. The control group receives the same learning objectives and content through a standard didactic lecture, over a comparable duration.

After the learning session, all participants complete the same set of standardized clinical scenarios, scored with a predefined rubric. The primary outcome is the post-intervention clinical-reasoning score. Secondary outcomes include diagnostic accuracy, confidence, and satisfaction.

The trial uses a shared protocol across discipline-specific cohorts to allow consistent, pre-specified comparison of simulation-based versus lecture-based instruction.

Studieoversigt

Detaljeret beskrivelse

Background. Clinical reasoning is a core competency across medical disciplines, yet traditional lectures offer limited interactive practice. A digital simulation using authentic patient cases may strengthen reasoning, but comparative evidence is limited.

Objective. To compare a digital, video-based clinical-reasoning simulation with conventional lecture-based teaching on clinical-reasoning performance, using a single shared design applied across discipline-specific cohorts (e.g., orthopedics, ophthalmology, paediatrics).

Design. Single-center, parallel-group, two-arm randomized controlled trial with 1:1 allocation, replicated as pre-specified cohorts by clinical discipline under one common protocol.

Participants. Eligible learners (medical students / residents) within each discipline-specific cohort at primarily Altinbas University.

Randomization. Computer-generated 1:1 randomization performed separately within each cohort; outcome assessors blinded to allocation.

Interventions. Intervention - interactive, web-based clinical-reasoning simulation using real patient video cases with structured reasoning steps. Control - didactic lecture delivering identical learning objectives and content over a comparable duration.

Outcomes. Primary - post-intervention clinical-reasoning score on standardized scenarios rated with a predefined rubric. Secondary - diagnostic accuracy, participant confidence, satisfaction.

Cohorts & analysis. Each discipline-specific cohort is analyzed separately with an independent-samples t-test; inter-rater reliability assessed where applicable. Total target enrollment (n=250) across all cohorts.

Hvad måler undersøgelsen?

Primære resultatmål

Resultatmål
Foranstaltningsbeskrivelse
Tidsramme
Clinical-reasoning performance score
Tidsramme: Immediately after the learning session (same day)
Performance on a set of standardized clinical scenarios completed after the learning session, rated with a predefined scoring rubric. Higher scores indicate better clinical-reasoning performance. Assessed separately within each discipline-specific cohort. Scored using the five-domain Clinical Reasoning Score System; total range 0-100, with higher scores indicating better clinical-reasoning performance.

Tidsramme
Diagnostic accuracy
Tidsramme: Immediately after the learning session (same day)
Proportion of standardized scenarios in which the participant reached the correct diagnosis, scored against a predefined answer key. Reported as the percentage of scenarios with a correct diagnosis (0-100%); higher values indicate better performance.
Immediately after the learning session (same day)
Participant confidence
Tidsramme: Immediately after the learning session (same day)
Self-reported confidence in clinical decision-making, measured on a structured rating scale after the session. Measured on a 5-point Likert scale (1 = strongly disagree to 5 = strongly agree); higher scores indicate greater confidence.
