MSK with FMEDWadey RCT MSK Short Case Simulations With FMED

Study Agent/ Intervention/ Procedure The educational tool consisted of 20 short (MSK) case simulations of 15 minutes duration reflecting conditions of the upper extremity; lower extremity; spine; trauma and MSK infections were developed, reviewed and integrated into links that also contained demographic questionnaires; pre and post simulation knowledge questions and learner satisfaction surveys.

Outcome Measures

1. Demographic questionnaire for the Learner;
2. 100 MCQ (multiple-choice questionnaire) reflecting the same questions contained in the 20 MSK Short Case Simulations
3. Pre/Post multiple choice question knowledge questionnaire
4. Learner satisfaction questionnaire
5. Patient experience and satisfaction questionnaire - QR Code
6. Educator evaluation questionnaire - QR Code
7. Focus group questionnaire

Primary Objectives

1. To determine if learners working through the 20 MSK Short Case Simulations delivered through on-line links would improve their knowledge, skills and satisfaction in learning how to identify and initially manage patients with various MSK conditions when compared to learners not exposed to the same educational tool.
2. To determine patients' experience undergoing one of the 20 MSK assessments and initial management of their various MSK conditions by the learners and their satisfaction in receiving their initial care management in both groups
3. To determine if the assessment and initial management of the 20 MSK conditions by the learners on the patients was deemed to be competent by the educators in both groups
