Respiratory Auscultation Lab Using a Cardiopulmonary Auscultation Simulation Manikin
Introduction Mastery of respiratory auscultation skills is fundamental for clinicians to develop. We created a case-based educational session utilizing a high-fidelity simulator to teach lung sound auscultation to medical students at our institution. We employed a hypothesis-driven approach and deli...
