Training in clinical ultrasound has become highly relevant for working as an otorhinolaryngologist. While there is a high demand for standardized and certified training courses, until recently, there was no possibility to attend web-based and exclusively virtual head and neck ultrasound courses certified by the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Ultraschall in der Medizin (DEGUM; German Society for Ultrasound in Medicine).
The aim of this study was to provide a qualitative and semi-quantitative analysis of the first purely virtual DEGUM-certified head and neck ultrasound courses.
In 2021, three purely web-based DEGUM-certified head and neck ultrasound courses were carried out and then qualitatively analyzed using questionnaires including an examination.
The purely virtual implementation of head and neck ultrasound courses proved to be a viable alternative to the conventional course format, with a high level of acceptance among the participants. The lack of practice among the participants remains a relevant criticism.
A more dominant role of web-based and remote ultrasound training is likely and should be considered as an alternative depending on existing conditions. Nevertheless, acquisition of practical sonographic skills remains a major hurdle if courses are purely digital.
临床超声培训对于耳鼻喉科医生的工作变得高度相关。虽然对标准化和认证培训课程有很高的需求,但直到最近,还无法参加由德国医学超声协会(DEGUM)认证的基于网络且完全虚拟的头颈部超声课程。
本研究的目的是对首个完全虚拟的DEGUM认证头颈部超声课程进行定性和半定量分析。
2021年开展了三门基于网络的完全DEGUM认证头颈部超声课程,然后使用包括考试在内的问卷进行定性分析。
头颈部超声课程的完全虚拟实施被证明是传统课程形式的可行替代方案,参与者接受度很高。参与者缺乏实践仍然是一个相关的批评点。
基于网络和远程超声培训可能会发挥更重要的作用,应根据现有条件将其视为一种替代方案。然而,如果课程完全是数字化的,实际超声技能的掌握仍然是一个主要障碍。
