Abstract

A B S T R A C T S performed on 28 patients with diastolic murmur. Half of the auscultations (n1⁄4113) were completed by the students in Group A and the other half (n1⁄4113) were carried out by the students in Group B (before). The percentage of making right diagnosis for diastolic murmur was increased in Group A with regard to those in Group B (before) (56.6% vs. 24.8%, p<0.001). Furthermore, we noticed that the percentage of right diagnosis for diastolic murmur was notably higher among the students in Group B (after) in relation to those in Group B (before) (61.1% vs. 24.8%, p<0.001). Conclusions: The use of cardiac simulator as a training tool can improve auscultation skills of medical students quickly and efficiently.
