A Prospective Analysis of Motor and Cognitive Skill Retention in Novice Learners of Point of Care Ultrasound
Conclusions:
Motor and cognitive skills decay at different times for pleural and cardiac images. Future ultrasound curricula should retrain skills at a maximum of 8 weeks from initial training. They should focus more on didactic sessions related to image identification for pleural images, and more hands-on image acquisition training for cardiac images, which represents a novel finding.
