Stroke Care Services in Singapore During COVID-19 Pandemic —A National Perspective
Stroke is a significant cause of admission to Singapore's acute care hospitals. Because of the current COVID-19 pandemic, there have been major changes in the stroke care system. On calling for the public ambulance, those suspected to have COVID-19 infection are taken to the National Center for Infectious Diseases. Otherwise, on arrival at the emergency room, all cases with fever or respiratory symptoms [COVID-19 suspect patients (CSPs)] are evaluated separately by staff wearing full personal protective equipment (PPE). Triage is not delayed. CSPs needing hyperacute therapies are sent to a specially prepared scanner; if no...

Quantitative clinical nuclear cardiology, part 2: Evolving/emerging applications
This article discusses evolving methods to measure myocardial blood flow with positron emission tomography and single-photon emission computed tomography. Novel quantitative assessments of myocardial viability, microcalcification and in patients with cardiac sarcoidosis and cardiac amyloidosis will also be described. Lastly, we will review the potential role for artificial intelligence to improve image analysis, disease diagnosis, and risk prediction. The potential clinical role for all these novel techniques will be highlighted as well as methods to optimize their implementation.

Comparison of in-person versus tele-ultrasound point-of-care ultrasound training during the COVID-19 pandemic
ConclusionsCompared to a traditional in-person course, tele-ultrasound POCUS CME courses appeared to be as effective for improving POCUS knowledge post-course and fulfilling learning objectives. Our findings can serve as a roadmap for educators seeking guidance on development of a tele-ultrasound POCUS training course whose demand will likely persist beyond the COVID-19 pandemic.

Outcomes of an Advanced Ultrasound Elective: Preparing Medical Students for Residency and Practice
Conclusions— The longitudinal undergraduate medical education ultrasound elective produced physicians who were more likely to seek additional training in residency, evaluate themselves as more proficient, and use ultrasound in their clinical practice. Early training in bedside ultrasound during undergraduate medical education yields physicians who are better prepared for integration of ultrasound into clinical practice.

Medical Students ’ Exposure to Ethics Conflicts in Clinical Training: Implications for Timing UME Bioethics Education
AbstractWhile there is significant consensus that undergraduate medical education (UME) should include bioethics training, there is widespread debate abouthow to teach bioethics to medical students. Educators disagree about course methods and approaches, the topics that should be covered, and the effectiveness and metrics for UME ethics training. One issue that has received scant attention is the timing of bioethics education during medical training. The existing literature suggests that most medical ethics education occurs in the pre-clinical years. Follow-up studies indicate that medical students in their clinical rotati...

Evaluation of an innovative hands ‐on anatomy‐centered ultrasound curriculum to supplement graduate gross anatomy education
This study is the first to evaluate the impact of US training in gross anatomy for non‐medical students in the United States. All 32 master's students enrolled in gross anatomy with the anatomy‐centered ultrasound (ACUS) curriculum were recruited. Mean Likert ratings on pre‐ and post‐course surveys (100% response rates) were compared to evaluate the effectiveness of the ACUS curriculum in developing US confidence, and gauge its impact on views of US. Post‐course, students reported significantly higher (P < 0.001) mean confidence ratings in five US skills (pre‐course versus post‐course mean): obtaining ...

The Use of Point-of-care Ultrasound in Emergency Medical Centers in Korea: a National Cross-sectional Survey
CONCLUSION: This study found that most physicians currently working in emergency medical centers in Korea more frequently perform various types of ultrasound scans compared to those 10 years prior. To further promote the use of POCUS, it is important to have an appropriate number of ultrasound devices and physicians in the emergency center along with systematic POCUS education.PMID:34060257 | DOI:10.3346/jkms.2021.36.e141

Precision patient education using a "flipped classroom" approach
CONCLUSIONS: Patient engagement with the education material was high, and they continued to access it many times. Active learning enhances patient comprehension of complex treatment information leading to decreased anxiety. Furthermore, this technique can be incorporated into existing telemedicine with basic technology.PMID:35482549 | DOI:10.1002/acm2.13601
