Study Summary

This longitudinal, single-cohort, within-subjects study evaluates whether sequential exposure to Ventriloscope simulation stethoscope training, delivered after traditional auscultation instruction, enhances auscultation knowledge, clinical sound recognition skill, and self-reported confidence in Physical Therapy (PT) and Athletic Training (AT) students, and whether any enhancement is retained two months after training. All participating students receive both training modalities in sequence. Knowledge, skill, and confidence are measured at five timepoints (T1-T5) across approximately five months. A qualitative component examines student perceptions of the two training modalities.

Primary Outcome

Written multiple-choice knowledge assessment measuring clinical interpretation and procedures for auscultation, adapted with permission from Sherman et al. (2011) and revised to reflect PT and AT scope of practice. Parallel-form versions are used across timepoints to reduce test-retest effects. Scores are reported as percent correct (0-100).

Interventions
